84Scoobaroo Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84Scoobaroo Posted April 28, 2004 Author Share Posted April 28, 2004 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.

Turbone Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Wow, what a coincidence :cool: It also has a blown HG, cracked dash. But its already got a 5spd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

84Scoobaroo Posted April 28, 2004 Author Share Posted April 28, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
