Oh that has DZY written all over it, he is drooling right now if he has seen this thing.

Seriously though that is one helluva nice example of when the cars were made and not produced.

that is an a spec motor with a 16v head dohc. 170 bhp, individual throttle body, all made by kad in the uk, of course also available from 7 enterprises in auburn ca. the engine alone to replicate now would cost about 20k. pretty insane. The owner said this car moves.

trying to negotiate with the owner right now, dunno if he's going to bite or not. plus the cars in finland so sight unseen, I want more pics so i can make a decision.
your right though better than dropping a vtec engine on it.
