this car has been an adventure so far, it never seems to quit amazing me.

 

i bought the car non running, there was a litter of kittens living in the back of the car and the trunk was filled with beer bottles. it smelled terrible for awhile afteer buying it. i have done my best to get rid of the smell and its going well thus far.

story....

i had a friend take me too look at the car and for what they wanted for it i couldnt resist, they thought it had an ignition problem but i wasnt so sure about that there were loose wires hanging every where where a systemm had been previously hooked up so i figured it had a blown fuse. when i got it home i went threw the fuses, the main and blinker relay fuses were bad. i replaced them and walla started first crank with two year old gas.

 

the first drive was awsome, i shouldnt be romping on it with old gas but i couldnt really hold back, it was raining when i first drove i, i popped it in second and floored it, i didnt go any where... i was just peeling out, i was amazed, so now that i knew i liked it i began to put a little money  into it

Wow, this is certainly a wicked project car. I have a 2nd gen. MX6 and it's awesome, been a year since I bought it and I also had to dump a crap load of $$ into it... but once all the major crap is out of the way, I think you'll really enjoy it!! 5 stars. Check out MX-6.com (If you join, Referrer name - ManduMX). Their is a 1st gen. specific area that will tell you everything you need to know about OEM or aftermarket parts for your ride and tons of knowledgeable other members. 5 stars :) Rate me back please.
