Well we picked up a 89 GTU that has been sitting for 3 +years. No engine, no transmission and a ton of bondo. Has some nice interior components(which we plan on selling). This baby needs work. Will post some pics later on.

As promised pics. 89 GTU automatic. Sat for 3 years. Also partime home to a homeless person. The shop owner that we bought it from told me this. So dont know if its true. They tried to do a V8 swap and gave up.
Ahh. That 1989 smell that all JDM cars from this period have.
No engine. Good and Bad. Good. Makes swap easy. Bad. Former owner welded in a V8 engine mount. Which will be removed shortly.
Off to our shop. Will post updated pics soon. In 2 days time we have managed to gut it out and do some minor clean up. Stay tuned.
