I'm tearing apart a 90-something escort GT this weekend. I'm taking the engine/trans, and some, if not all of the suspension. Body is a little beat up, front bumper is wrecked, but the nifty grille piece is in good shape. Rear spoiler is good. Wheels look good. Interior is pretty crappy.
Need anything?
Nice, unclouded headlights.
Is it the 3-piece spoiler? If it is, and it's cheap, i'll want it.
Shifter linkage bushings.
How much for a rear tailight?
I think the headlights are OK. Shift linkage is f&ed. I'm not sure what the "3-piece" spoiler is. This is, well, one piece from what I can tell. I'll grab headlights, tail-lights, the spoiler and grille this weekend, and post pics next week. Anything else?

The three piece wraps around the hatch, to the rear quarters. Looks like something that really belongs on a StarQuest.
I think that's really it for my car at the moment....
Like this?
No, it doesn't have that. Sorry.
I need a rear defroster switch, but I can probably get one locally cheaper than shipping. If it's that nasty teal green color, I'd take the rear bumper. Not sure how I'd get it though.

I'd recommend meeting at the Fort Sanders Yacht Club on Friday night. You could be home with your bumper by the following Wednesday.

Shifter bushings are pretty cheap at the dealer, I think they are about 6 or 8 bucks a piece, and you need two, possibly four if you are going to change the two up by the trans. Those two never went bad for me, just the ones under the shifter. Also, I think corksport sells some bronze ones for about 30.

you say your keeping some of the suspension, but what about the rear swaybar?
should have the 21mm, quite a bit beefier then my 13mm one.

Score! I need all of them. The Corksport set is $40, and i'm just too impatient at this point to wait. I like the old days of going to the dealer and just picking up parts (before they got expensive) but that price is fine.
I tried to get Energy Suspension bushings from Autozone yesterday, but they looked at me like i sprouted horns and danced a jig around their store wearing a sport coat and thong, only.
So... yeah. That didn't work too well.

Argh. Too late. Car is squished.
92dx - I pulled all the lights. The rears look good, though the reverse(?) bulbs melted part of the surround. Let me know if you're still interested, and which one(s) you want, and I'll take pics.
Headlights look pretty foggy, but could probably be polished up.

I have one from a Tracer LTS, though I can't remember if the specs matched those of the EGT. Shoot me a message if interested.
a good set of plug wires? got em? cheap?
good news! thanks. remounting the coils on my miata and the EGT has longer wires.

Why are you remounting the coil?
Joey
using the EGT valve cover cause i wanted it to look different. Well being different is a pain in the ass...Valve cover has no provision to mount the coil packs.
