    I am not really looking for a new project but I will spread the word.

    If you do end up parting the thing "hook a brotha up, Yo", er ah I mean, I could use a couple different parts.

    I am already getting PMs if parting out. I am going to see for a week or two if any body wants the whole thing. If not I will start a new thread and post prices (or b/o) and take orders. The car has everything except a good motor.

    Lsd? Abs?

    If I had the money I'd take it and then just drop in my honda motor until I could find a proper motor but I don't have the money right now. Good luck though, sounds like a heck of a deal.

    No ABS, need to call Mazda on the LSD. Some chance since B Package.

    If I part it out, it will happen fast and furious as I cannot have a partially stripped car sitting around.

    There will be some parts I'll keep for back-up on the spec.

    Stupid question.

    When you say engine "may" be toast, what all does that entail? Does it turn over? Knock? idle funny?

    Turns over, sorta starts ( I drove it 100ft before it crapped out). Radiator was dry, head is warped. Maybe should of said "toasted".

    Damn... where was that when I was looking for a Spec donor...

    Looks nice, someone will have a nice car after dropping a new head in or a replacement engine.
