Since my I'm waiting on my tax return, I'm wondering what I should do with the money. I could either spend it on my current R, or buying this shell. Mileage is unknown since it has a salvage title now, badge number is unknown and a few things are missing.

Cons

- some wires were cut and hacked instead of just being unplugged (f*#k theives)
- no cluster, no front seats, no motor, no tranny, no exhaust, no lower tie bar, no trunk bar inside, no rear garnish, no 5 lug, no carpet
- dash is somewhat broken and should be replaced


Pros

- has original rear seats
- has most of interior panels
- body isnt that bad of shape and still has original exterior body panels with matching vin #'s.
- has ITR suspension minus the 5 lug hubs

i love build threads, please save it and document ur progress

 

its more fun to rebuild them IMO but Ive been there done that

 

Save her and of course we love to see a nice build thread! :D

 

Go for it man, rebuilt it...

 

Save her and please document

 

i'd say its a good $1500 start

 

rebuild!!

 

yup. that's what I'd probably pick it up for. Owner is asking for $2k obo. so I'm sure he will drop the price if I do decide to pick it up

 

Hit up Doespike if you haven't already. He may have some info on the last known mileage and possibly be able to help you find the badge number. Sounds like a fun project if you have the space and time. Good luck!

 

Wow that could/would be a very nice start! I hope you follow through with it. GL

 

rebuild.

 

think i saw this on..is it in TX? guy has it listed as an 00 on another forum...been thinking on picking her up as well...

 

Yeah, its here local in houston. I wanna pick her up, but gotta wait for the money to come in first. I already will have a spare motor to throw in (jdm b18c itr motor, needs rings) and I just got an Espelir catback with a RMF replica header, so all id really need is an engine harness/transmisson and little misc things, but I'm just not sure what direction id take the car, either make it daily driveable, or prep it for track/ autox use. And it might be an 00. I just might be confused on the yr.

 

Do-it! Looks like a perfect rebuild project.

 

is it worth it to YOU?

 

bring her back from the dead

 

bring her back to life and come to expo 9

 

wow i wish there shells like that forsale here in FL ID bring her back to life

Build!!!

 

IMO rebuild.

 

bring it back

The only thing good the thieves done was break the tailights...
