Grandma's car, perfect glass, mint black and grey velour interior, everything works, arrow straight but with very faded exterior. Problem is, grandma never changed oil... ever! The motor has seized but I bought a replacement G12b 1.4liter motor from a wrecking yard in Atlanta GA with 51K on it. It's been sitting in their warehouse since 1987. Paid $400 for the car $450 for the motor and shipping. Can't wait to get this back on the road and shift through all those gears. 8 forward and two back...ha ha. I'm in Tacoma WA and plan on painting it Seahawks Green and Blue with a big ass "12" on the hood. ( hmm, maybe i should paint it Indianapolis Colts logos and colors instead and make a ton of money off of it?...... naw! Go Seahawks!!!) Anyway I am really thrilled to have found this and hope it is as cool as all the comments I've seen about these little cars. I'm hoping to get upwards of 50 mpg.
