I used to have a serious want for an early 90's 323.  That Seattle car looks really clean at a quick glance.  Almost too bad I don't have any need for it or place to keep it.

Do these count? All 3 at a small used car lot near my house and have been sitting around for a LOOOOOONG time! All 3 with hard tops.

PNW cars are normally pretty clean, it's sad that the cleanest BG 323 that I've seen for sale locally in the past year, for like $600, is now at LKQ PYP with no damage to it. It even had the A pillars (before I got them).

I'm counting them, they aren't BG chassis, but BPs swap easily enough into them. Their biggest issue is chassis rigidity.

Looks clean enough and pretty cheap.

I can't tell if it's an LX or a DX, if it's an LX that's definitely a buy.

I think the LX had body-colored mirrors didn't it?

FYI Rock auto has kyb's listed for under $20 each at the moment for ZX2.

Speaking of which my ZX rolled 231k miles today. Not bad for $900 car

Possibly the last EGT that'll ever be sold through a used car dealership, challenge priced, but barely

 

Decently clean, but without seeing the plugs, valve cover and maintenance records I'm not sure that it'd be well bought at that price. Get them to $1500 or lower and it's a solid purchase.

Sub $1k 323 in NY

 

Manual transmission, typical flaking white paint. Manual transmission, asking $800, but I typically see them sell in the $3-600 range.

A $1k obo BG 323 in PA that's crackpipe priced

 

With that rust this is destined to be parted out. It looks to have good MX3 seats in it. I'd love to grab them and the doors, hatch and fenders if they're in solid shape. That chassis is shot though. It's ashame as the paint doesn't fail on the red ones like it does on the white ones.

3 escorts for under $1k, yes they're fords and not human trafficking, VA

 

I feel like some people on here could make use of this for body parts, and ford related, not people, if the GRM shuttle gets fired up.

I can at least use a right front fender and a rear bumper.

(I'm still holding out for Mercury Tracer headlights/front bumper/grille, because I want to build the Escort/Tracer version of a Silvia front end on a 180SX or 240SX. Except not really, because it's not as cool as that, and not as noticeable. But I'll know, and that's what counts.)

Love these videos. I'm struck by how much nicer the interior looks in that early 90s Tracer as compared to the ZX-2. 

Speaking of ZX-2s, here's one for sale in the Sacramento area for $2500. Looks very clean. 150k miles.

They're a BG chassis, it definitely counts. It wears the OE Mini wheels well.

Not for sale, and no longer Mazda powered, but too good not to share.

$600 EGT in NJ, looks like the paint and body could use some attention

 

I'd be willing to purchase those wheels from someone on here it they were willing to sell them. If I needed another BP, G series transmission and rear disc setup, I'd be purchasing that car to strip of it's bits.
