Meant to post this last week, but been working like crazy, so it took a little while.
Last week I picked myself up a parts car, even though its a carbed auto and I have a FI 5spd, I think you guys will agree that it was worth the $425CAD I payed for it. It was driven up on a medain so it has some front passenger side frame issues and the drivers side floor needs to be banged down (sledge time...) Other than that it has really good body metal, (im told) factory tint all around, good tires on decent aluminum rims, and a really nice interior.

At this point the plan is to strip the tint and wheels for my driver and turn this one into a beater car or fix it up and sell it. When I went to get it the alt was stuck so we ended up breaking it loose using a socket in a pair of vise-grips (the ratchet would not fit).
The car has 200K kms on it and runs fine. I've already started putting some smaller parts from my other parts car on it to fix it up (mirror etc.. ).
I think I did pretty well, since I needed new rubber anyways and tint/rims were in my summer plans. Now its bodywork time on my driver so I can paint it and finally not have a rustbucket :uh:
Oh yeah, it also has an almost mint stock exhaust on it...
