Stopped by Pull-A-Part South in Atlanta today. They had a few unusual sports cars there that some of you are probably interested in:

1988 MX-6 Turbo:

Had a complete drivetrain. In fact, I think the car was untouched - 100% complete except a few interior trim pieces. No accident damage though, so maybe the engine is toast?


They also had a 1G Eclipse GSX that still had the manual transmission, VLSD rear dif, driveshaft and all 4 axles. Engine was slightly disassembled.

Finally, they had an FC RX-7 convertible with a mostly complete engine, trans, diff and axles.

Also very interesting, when I was stuck in traffic on the way home, a decked out old Landrover Defender came cruising by. It had all the off-road gear. Checked out the license plate - it was from Bolivia! I have no doubt that it was driven here. That's gotta be a seriously awesome road trip.

In reply to JohnyHachi6: Well, it does have a snorkle.

Was wondering when you'd chime in.

Let me know what you'd want and I'll try to grab it next time I'm there.

From the engine that looks to be an '88 or earlier convertible. The hood (looks to be gone) would have been aluminum and worth getting. If somebody did a round tail light swap, they are worth getting.

The injectors are high impedance, so SF1 probably doesn't want them.

Oh, one more thing.

If the radiator is clean and original, it should be all brass. You can't get them any more like that.

You'll need to log in to post.
