Default Finally got a type r shell..

http://www.elitemotorcars.com/...TEGRA

I just picked this badboy up. Its missing interior pieces, seats, 5 lug, head and misc parts. The only thing i need to buy for this car is seats and interior parts before i can get it inpected for the title. Tranny and block still in car . Anyone who done a NY salvage inpection let me know how it when and what to look out for.

Is it missing just the valve cover or ITR head? From what I see in the pics it's just missing the valve cover. I see the whole engine... or most of it anyways. Pretty sweet deal for the price. Keep us posted on the the Overhaul.

not a bad price at all except for the salvage title.. both of my clean title ones came with less for the most part, but cost about the same..

Congrats on the find and the purchase. That is the best theft recovery vehicle I have seen.

NY salvage titles are rough...you will need to schedule an appointment once you have assembled the car and the car will go through a tough inspection. All receits must be present and accounted for. Best wishes on the build.

They jumped the fence and stole the head off the car . It worked out for me because they lower the price alot because of that . I plan to buy replacement parts off Hmotors and other jdm stores. Do anyone know if they'll give me a problem with jdm parts with reciepts?

Damn, there must be somebody scoping the yard for cars like that to come in. Well at least you got half the motor and a tranny . Is the passenger side door bent? I see the top window area kinda sticking out... bent like.

Good luck wit it as long as u have all the paperwork for your new parts you'll pass yea. I seen that car don't have a head anymore on it, floor on the passenager side is damage, etc, but a good project to work on

As for the NY DMV accepting JDM spec parts...you may want to contact them first...you could be in for a surprise. I have watched them take peoples parts from the car and send them away , it can not hurt to make a phone call and ask....or maybe if the JDM parts have a VIN with them you'll be alright...ask the NY DMV for sure.
