I owned a beautiful 87 for ten years. Parts even back then in 1990 cost a fortune. The car was pretty rare i imagine many parts are non-existent right now. Fixing this thing up probably not a good idea...
@@suprachefgarage9845, absolutely! Please check out my other videos. You helped inspire me and I went with the same turbo based on your experience. So far so good. I’m still performing break in and hope to do further tuning and dyno this winter.
@@SupraSeth yea! I'll check out the videos! I'm glad I could help. That's what my channel is all about really. Took a short break from posting but I'll be uploading soon. I have a bunch of saved videos to edit and upload
The metal piece in the trunk is a "silencer" to stick in a fart can and quiet down the farts. The trans should be an R154 if it's a factory turbo. Id try putting pliers on the hood release cable and giving it a yank thay way.
if the title is gone it's rough this is a decent parts car bringing this back would be a money pit and time pit or it can fix several cars instead, as someone where my project was in parts car state and is now a very rough runner just start with a nicer car the money I have in my project I could get a 6\10 BAT condition driver with 1/4 of the miles.
Ive been working on these cars for 15 years. Save yourself the headache, time and money and just part it out. Wait until you save sufficient amount to get a better example to work off of
it is definitely worth saving
