wtb 4 cyl 5 speed

[Stutz]

I cant seem to find a gtp i want so im just putting some goodies on my gt. In the meantime i need a decent dd that gets good milage, Either under $1000 or i have a 84 s10 to trade.

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Are you looking for something decent or...?

I have am '89 Mustang 2.3L 5-speed... Floor pans are shot... I drive it every day for work as i dont want to get paint and shit all over the caddy. It runs and drives just fine, we drive it atleast a good 100+ miles a day, its a black hatchback.... TONS of new stuff on it!

It's ugly... I would trade for the S10, I want an SUV/Truck for work anyways....

[Stutz]

notch or hatch? what does it get for milage? and does it the a/c and heat still work?

[Stutz]

Doesnt really matter what the body shape is in, as long as it gets good milage and is somewhat dependable

[Luminatorz34]

i believe its a notch tricky and black in color

[DustinsDuster]

no, its a hatchback. and it is black. i drive by it almost every day.

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Dustin is right... and for the record... It says black hatchback right in the post :suspect:

Mileage i would guess around 25~ IDK for sure, it is a turd, but has never left us stranded or anything. Like i said above we drive it atleast a good 100 miles a day for work. Forgot to mention the speedo don't work as well... Has all new headlights, all new weatherstripping, dist. cap, plugs, wires, alt. and more.... I traded my big ass F350 crew cab for it because i couldn't afford 100+ miles on a 460 Big Block and a 3-speed trans!!!!


I can get pics if you need. The body isn't bad really, the floor pans are the issue, you can get a COMPLETE new floor for under $200 though... Imagine the UGLIEST fox body ever, then throw dog shit at it and paint it to look like Kirsty Ally's ass and it comes close to the look of the car....

I got a 94 Honda Civic DX Coupe Heat and ice cold Air, 5 speed 1.5 liter gets 35mpg all day long. Its got high miles 205k but runs good dependable, It will need a clutch before winter. And i think its got a leaky intake gasket, it dont effect anything and hasnt ever bothered me, it just sputters on a take off every now and then. And it needs exhaust from the cat back (which might get done soon anyways). I would be willing to consider trading it for your S-10 i would like to look at it first.

damn Luminator i love those rims!....where was i?

oh yeah, the speedo thing wouldnt really work out for me i dont want speeding tickets lol, how hard of a fix would that be?

and any pics of the civic?

For those of you who dont know the s10 has a 350/th350 swapped in it with some bolt ons

[sLoWnStEaDy]

should be an easy fix... but i don't think i could afford the gas in that S10, didn;t know it was a V8/3spd... I would sell the stang for $800~ New parts on it total around $500, plus that would leave you a couple hundred left on your budget to get floor pans...



Here are some shots of the mustang... Doesn't look exactly the same anymore... Forgot to mention above we pulled most of the interior as well because it was nasty... Like i said, ugly, UGLY car...
