April 28, 200421 yr I just got an 86 XT FWD 5speed from my neighbor for free. It rearended a civic hard enough to push the civic's trunk over the rear tires. It has a rebuilt EA82 with only 40k mi on it and a damn near perfect interior. I think im most likely going to keep the engine, tranny, pedal box, 5 speed interior parts, and dash cluster to swap into another XT (if the owner still has it) and keep an XT for a DD. Just sitting in it made me want to keep it What are the USMB's thoughts on this? Pics!
April 28, 200421 yr Basically, its just a labor intensive job. If you have done it before its not too bad. And are you thinking of the same XT I am?
April 28, 200421 yr Author Would it be Red XT with a Blown engine, and a rebuilt Auto? If it is, that engine is bad, bad, and bad. I was in the shop when they comp. checked the cylinders, and as soon as they hit the button A\F shot out the radiator ! Edit: You have an XT.
April 28, 200421 yr Wow, what a coincidence :cool: It also has a blown HG, cracked dash. But its already got a 5spd.
April 28, 200421 yr Haha - beat you to it Mick! You can also tell by the bumper, the hatch latch, and the rubber seal..... :-p GD
April 28, 200421 yr Author Im fairly certain it will be parted out (the XT) but all the good stuff from the wagon will be going into the hatch. I might have some extra parts laying around after a while though.
