I forgot to mention the custom barbed wire scratches all down the sides and the roof and one two hub caps on on fr and bl. also a rag jammed in the steering column to keep it from moving.

89 MX6 GT, 183,xxx --- $1000 came with rebuilt turbo, new clutch, new tie rod ends, 1 new axle, -- I've done, head gasket (was fine, some other stupid gasket that was leaking, oh well), other axle, 1 ball joint, all brakes, new tires, removed AC (winter car ) and I'm gonna loop the PS lines... so like $1500 into it, and it runs like a champ and is faster than my civic (DAMN!)
