My free 86 CRX SI I picked up today

So, I picked up my new FREE CRX today. :)

This guy just wanted it off his property so he gave it to me to tow away. He said it would need a new engine but other then that it is decent shape. Well, here is what I found when I got there.

Overall the car is not in bad shape. It has been sitting for over a year so the inside needs some serious cleaning. But as I got closer I noticed something a little odd, can you spot it?

Keep scrolling.

Apparently the guys brother who originally owned and abandon the car boosted it :) Works out great for me. Let take a look under the hood shall we? Did I mention this was FREE!!!

Is that a 16V head I see. Also if you look closer you will see the 7 pin SI distributor plug for the electronic advance. Looks like someone did all of the hardwork for me. This just keeps getting better and better.

Looks like it is a Saab .42 .48 turbo. Also has this minty saab FMIC :D

Not sure what size injectors on on here. Will have to figure that one out later.

So then I decided to see what other shinny stuff was in the car. Low and behold when I open the glove box!!!

Also not pictured was the OBD0 PR4 chipped ECU under the seat. Looks like I just need to get a new bottom end under this thing and I have a new FREE toy :) More pics to come later. Have to finish the DelSol first.
