Check out my new ride "Double Vision"

Just picked up the one on the right today.

1990 GTU , shame I gotta part it out.

My ride is on the left 1989 GTU











Thats my 1984 GSL "SE HYBRID" in the background, "the brown one" Running my MegaFuel Injection System.

The Grey one is 1983 GSL, donor car for the complete restoration project in the garage

Why would you part out that car? Looks like a straight body, and the paint is decent.

Keep 'em on the road!

Seriously though its just business, if no one parted these cars out you would be stuck paying $450 for an ignitor from mazdatrix for a 1st gen, intead of $20 on ebay

I only part out cars that are beyond repair - engine fires, serious frame damage, etc. The sad thing is an FC is now worth more in parts than in whole, and it's more profitable to part one out. They're not making any more of them, you know .

I had a black 89 GTU that was *identical* to my black 90 GTU, except the 90 has a sunroof...
