How much am i looking at to fix if i buy  I do not know any good parts for this car and just want it I just want the car to be stock...no need to build something bullet proof.
I guess ebay engine kits are out of the question? 
Thanks guys!!
Links would be great...also is the car mk1? what kind of engine do they have? |
ok here is what you do, if you really do enjoy mk1's as i do. tell the guy you will have to get a new engine and see if he can come down to 400 or so. if the body is in as good of shape as you say, get a lower mile 4A-GE and swap it. i have yet to attempt to swap engines yet but if you know how to do it yourself, you could have this thing up and running for what, 1500? and my car has 200k. its been beat to hell. some of these guys have past 300k on their engines. 1500 for a car that will keep running is def worth payin for imho. i guess it depends on if you're trying to get profit out of it. i plan on keeping my 2 for years to come...
