Manual w/ ~260k miles on it. Previous owner claims the engine was rebuilt at around 100k but he claimed a lot of things. It has a california roof but the gears in the motor are stripped, also the drivers side window won't go down. It has it's fair number of issues, but I couldn't be happier. Fun car to DD. Top priorities, Fix roof Fix window Get A.C. working Rebuild/purchase new front calipers. (one seized up and tore the pad to dust). | | | 06-01-2016, 02:00 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2015 Location: Wichita Falls,Texas Posts: 106 | What parts do you need for the top ?

Trying to take it apart, but proving to be more difficult than i expected. | | | 06-01-2016, 06:46 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2015 Location: Wichita Falls,Texas Posts: 106 | I have a good used motor, $50 shipped Lino | | | 06-01-2016, 09:13 PM | #5 | Junior Member Join Date: May 2016 Location: michigan Posts: 17 | Sold.
