this is in terms of cost, labor and storage space:
do you think it's better to buy a new lx that is already 5spd and swap over my struts\springs, glass sunroof, and whatever else?
or to do a 5spd conversion and a new core support (bent up due to wreck) ... and a new windsheild... as of last friday (a giant crack all across the bottom just... appeared )
i've been thinking about this for awhile.. and i can't really figure it out.
i'll have some extra money soon (inheritance... most of it's going towards property though) somewhere around a $4k spending limit for the car but it would be nice to find the most cost effective way of doing things...
if i don't buy another 1st gen, that gives me about 2k more for my current one, but if i do buy another one, i have a full parts car (though storage may be a problem) and i won't have any downtime when rebuilding the motor...
opinions? ideas?
