Deffinitly i work at a body shop for school program and im going to fix the rust and rattle can it. I just got it registered and stuff today. Should be running tommorow.
it woulda been a real good steal if it came with the 3.0!!! Its a dodge shadow right? Didnt those come with the 6g72? If you sell it, you can make about 800 bucks off that thing, and then buys youself a 3.0 haha . good find. ive been looking for a car to fix for about two weeks now, havent found any yet...

Some people see a $100 Avenger hit by a snow plow. I see potential. Where some saw a headache. I saw the $1500 in my pocket after I sold it.
how much do you wan for it? seriously tho how much?... ive seen this old school jetta sitting for a couple years im this close [holds up index finger and thumb] to walking up to the guys front door and offering him $200 for it. i dunno if he'll bite tho... Hey alex where did you find the freebie? Family, friend, some random guy?

300...it can drive, but not inspected...i also took some stuff off, I can take some pretty detailed pictures..and it gets better mileage than my avenger..go figure its got headers on, ya just need to finish up the back end of the exhaust, you can have one of the flowmasters that comes with it, and umm...yeah...i recarpeted the interior, but it has a lot of stuff that you could sell individually if you want it.. it has the underdrive pulley also, and that's it.

some came with a a "kind of" 6g72 but it was a older versionfrom the 80's and fitted with a 12 valves sohc head , half american half japanese the worst of both worlds
btw a a port job on the head and shaving it to bump the compression , a hotter camshaft and a larger tb injector and you could see 130 hp
even better just pickup a 2.5 turbo engine with computer and wirrring harness and drop it in , add an intercooler, and read the late Gus Mahon webpages and you could have really serious fun !

do a unique engine swap or die trying bow to the torque meister , the 2.4L prophet
Actually alain those old 6g72 can make some monsterous power. Theres a guy on turbododge.com with a 6g72 completely built with a t67 turbo, with bfg drag radials he spins all the way through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. I will fix this car up a little, i will be done with the headgasket tommorow. After i drive and save im gonna try and get either a omni, daytona, or csx turbo 1 or turbo 2. Not worth it to try getting a turbo motor and dropping it in.
Yay it runs! All i need to do now is figure out where a couple of vacuum hoses go and a couple of connecters and i can drive it. Also needs a new alternater belt.
