323 gtx

[94mx5]

Had a chance to get a fairly decent shape 323 GTX with a bad rod knock last weekend. Drug it home on the trailer. Runs, but has very little left in the motor. Luckily I have an extra motor for it. The Festy swap is being put on hold for a short bit. This engine swap has to happen first, then strip the Capri I bought to drop all those parts into the Festy. Busy, busy, busy...

Man I was wondering what happened to that car in Colorado Springs, I wanted to get it but you beat me to it. If you change your mind about it i'll take it.:p

X2!! if that was the case i'd be willing to drive down to you and install my B6T in your car for you in trade for the GTX :lol:

I had already picked up a b6t motor and trans from a 1992 Capri. That was destined for my Festiva. Since the 323 has a HORRIBLE rod knock, the engine is actually going into the 323. A few weeks ago I had a guy offer to sell me his Capri with a b6t running and driving for $500. It is in poor shape and not worth saving as a complete car, so it is being swapped into the Festiva. Will likely be keeping both cars for now as I have all the parts, just need some weather and time. In the end I will have a spare b6t to rebuild as well as a spare Capri trans.
