    The new project...

    Well i got this car cheap... and buy cheap I mean its not running and the rented towing equipment cost more. Anyway it has a blown headgasket and thats all i can tell is wrong with it mechanically so far. Im throwing around several ideas right now. I won't say anything just yet until i've begun on some of them.

    A little more info: needs paint, new seats (these things are crap) to be cleaned inside and out THOROUGHLY , head gasket, battery, thats just the start... well now i gotta start the project.

          im thinking either a b6t or a dohc b6 like out of a miata but either motor will actually come out of a mercury capri! at least thats the hopefull plan.

          and heres a nice clean one for an example:

                Pretty cool. I think your the first member to have one of those old school 323's.

                      o ok, yeah i've decided im first gonna get it runing by fixing the head gasket, figure out if anything else is wrong and if it looks good from they're I'd like to do a b6p or b6t swap.
