Variation of a theme - pics of parts cars!

[57loboy]

Just curious to see what others have driven or dragged home as parts cars over the years... I'll start off as I am guilty of 3 "true" parts cars and one "donor" since 1/05.

The donor was an 87 Limited Turbo I was going to restore and decided against it, so I stripped it pretty thoroughly. The other three were strictly for parts: '86 NA V6 Limited w/CF5, '87 V8 Limited w/45-45 grey leather, '87 V8 T-Type w/t-tops.

Here are pics -

DATURBOSIX - Don't let Brian Weaver see that WE4!!! I think he's got a soft spot for those cars! (Nice avatar too:wink: )

BUDGET_CRX - The logos did say "T" not "T-Type" for 87, this car had been painted once and the logos put back on were the ones that said "T-Type" as you can see in the pics.

oh ok. it all makes sense now. do you happen to know the production numbers on the V8 "T"s? they seem to be pretty rare...

I'm not sure what the production #'s were - perhaps one of the reference books like Kirbans would cover it though most mention the V8 T's as an afterthought. They're good as parts cars only for most everything except the engine, transmission, driveshaft and rear end.
