is it worth it
im intrested in this because well lets face it 86 arnt realy plentiful in texas and it is my fav car i have all the money i just dont know what all im gettin in to so im asking yall guys opinion

this is what the guy said

I have two corollas, one black '85 GT-S. This is a PARTS CAR. It has no title.
The motor has just been re-built, cranked once, never started. Seemed to not have oil pressure. Could be a line issue, or a busted oil pump. Either way, a junk yard and $50 will have the motor running like BRAND NEW. ZERO miles on the rebuild.

The other one is a white '85 SR-5. The shell is identical to the GT-S, but the motor is a feeble 1.5 liter carbed edition powerhouse. Yeah.
So, what I was planning on doing was doing a complete GT-S swap into the SR-5 shell. The SR-5 has a title, it is clean. The shell is straight, and completely mint. Was a daily driver for a 75 year old woman until the head gasket blew, but you're just gonna' throw away the carbed motor anyway, so who cares?

All the parts needed from the GT-S to convert the SR-5 are in great shape. Like I said, I was going to do the conversion myself, but a recent arrangement has changed things. Both the cars are coupes.

I will not and cannot transport the cars anywhere, for any kind of fee. You WILL have to come pick them up. They can stay out at my shop for an indefinate amount of time until you come get them, but they WILL be payed for in full. I will not wait on payment, because I need them sold. I will hold them for you, though, if you pay for them, and they will be in a secure location behind lock and key.

Now, either that, or you can just buy parts off the GT-S for your own use. The SR-5 will run and be an excellent daily driver with just a new head gasket. That is the only problem with the white car. The black car is a parts car only.

I want to try and make as close to $1000 as I can for both of these cars together. So keep that in mind when you offer.
This is your chance to own the ORIGINAL drift car for less than a grand! With a like new motor
