Vehicle Detail

Back in its prime it was a very very quick car. It has a 12 cylinder turbo engine. It has extra parts under the hood to increase sports power from previous owner. I am not a mechanic so i dont know them. But i know he had a lot under the hood back in the day. Engine is in real good shape. This would be a good parts car, mostly the turbo engine. The engine is compatible on Supras and many other model cars. Cant remember them all but i know there are several. It ran when i parked it in 2006. The problems that i had when i parked it was the starter was sticking, the emergency brake was bad ( not out, but bad) and the battery is junk. At the time i estimated a few hundred dollars and some labor woulda got it goin good. I bought this car from a friend to deliver pizzas in. It got such great gas mileage and was extremely fast. I bought it without the title, and lost touch with my friend and never received the title. It hasnt been registered since 2004, and to get the title u will have to apply as an abandoned car title. It has been at my farm since 2008 and getting the title will be no problem for you. I drove it out to my farm in 2008 and parked it when i moved outta the area and knew it was not highway worthy. I listed what needed work above when i parked it. I recently tried starting it and noticed that mice had chewed some wires. And rather than working on it i want to just get rid of it before it gets further wrecked from mice and elements. I parked it next to my families quonset and moved away. Came back and noticed it sunfaded fast from being by the tin. Then noticed the mice under the hood. I was very disappointed. The next step would be for me to put the engine in a Toyota Supra like I originally planned. But since 2008 i have started a family and have 4 other vehicles. So i wont have the time anytime soon and dont need it. It breaks my heart cuz i know the motors potential. I would rather give it to someone to see it put to use rather than seeing it deteriorate in my field.

I seen 12valve on the engine, like i said, i am not a mechanic. its a Mazda engine. And is in fact NOT compatible with supras. Sorry for the mess up.
