'87 NA 5spd

[87mk111]

I picked up an 87 na 5spd in March for 2500 bucks. 128,000 miles on the body, 68,000 on the jdm engine. Here is what she looks like right now (currently undergoing bodywork and paint, hope to have her back soon).

Yeah, tell me about it. We had one planned for Oct 10th, but it fell through. Check out OhioSupras.org when you get a chance. Lots of Ohio owners over there.

i just got off the phone with the body shop: Bad news. They aren't finishing ny car. (Just a heads up, I took it to a high school autobody class cause they only charge for materials). THe kid that was working on it got expelled, and the teacher isnt going to put anyone else on it. So, basically I'm getting back a car thats primered with no front bumper and the body kit isnt hung yet either (stock rear bumper and side skirts r still on it tho). At this point I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. Part of me wants to keep it, but I dont have time to do it myself, and I dont have the money to take it to a profesional shop, that's why I opted for the high school. Any advice?

Make the time to do it yourself. Whenever you get free time, work on it. Yes it will take a while, but it'll save you a lot of money.

Oh, welcome to the forums and I hope you enjoy your stay.
