1989 5-Speed Eagle Summit (35 mpg average, not sure if i want to swap it)

1990 5-Speed (Converted From 4-Speed) Colt (Run's alright, hesitates a little, already gutted, perfect for swap?)

I'm going to swap one of these cars. Not sure which one yet. The summit runs and drives awesome, so it's hard for me to swap it. I purchased it from a dealership. The original owner (92 year old lady) traded it in for a car with A/C. The title says 92 miles on it.

The colt I just picked up from a friend who is a member on his named godzilla. The car is pretty clean, and he spent a ton of timing gutting it and installing coilovers on it. I think it's the one that will end up 4g63 swapped.

Both are nice, but I would definately swap the hatch.

What up Kyle? We sure had some adventures with that white beast! Just getting it home was quite the event, especially when the trailer almost removed your junk...damn. Spent some time gutting that thing and doing suspension that's for sure. It was hot when slammed!

The most agreeable answer: the hatch

He sold the hatch and has the sedan swap complete. I think he's a wire or two and axles away from a driver now :)

yup! Sedan is up and running now. Someone purchased the hatch and re-installed all the interior (which i didn't have) and made it a daily heh. I guess when gas prices were $5.00/gal people will do anything!

Yeah...true true. Gosh...and you can't be the fuel economy of a 4g15 CSM. Well, you could go stupid and green for a moment, buy a $23,000 Hybrid and have a little better than comparable economy. But then again....a paid off car that gets nearly 40mpg versus 40 mpg and $350 per month car payment....you decide
