just got her yesterday for $100, 1989 Silver 4spd carb. was in an accident but still drivable, just needs a new drivers side fender and door, it was'nt starting, so i push started her down the alley and drove to the nearest cambodian tire and got a new battery, and kinda got carried away with my winter beater project, ended up buying new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, thermostat, wipers, oil, filter, brake fluid, atleast it will be a reliable winter beater. anyways, great site, glad its here, hope to be modding in the new year, just missed out on a cheap escort gt donor car today, was really hoping that would come through.

Welcome Emot!
You made a good investment. Treat her well from the start and she'll last you longer.
Don't forget the carb cleaner and air filter!

forgot those, yes i did buy air filter and carb cleaner, this car really has no power, im so used to owning turbo cars that have power on demand, but then again, my daily driver is a 200+hp dodge colt. I may pick up a 93 festiva that has some fender damage for a swap come next spring. i really dont want to be fu*king around with engine harness's, fuel lines, and tank just to swap in a decent power plant, im really leaning towards the BP swap, sounds like a good power/weight ratio.1989 Miitsubishi Mirage turbo RS, 4G61T, smic, 3"S.S. 13g, EBC,
