Mx-6 front end onto FC
I've been thinking of what to buy once i sell an extra car of mine to pay fines and buy parts for my AE86 (basically looking for something for $300 or so as a daily driver). I've been looking at the FC and the Mx-6s and the bodies are surprizingly similar, i chopped the roof off an Mx-6 in photoshop and it looked identical to an FC vert.
The relevance, i'm wanting to buy an FC from a junkyard which is wrecked in the front, but running for ~$200 or so, i have access to Mx-6 parts for practically nothing, just curious if anyone has tried it.

Just an idea, i'll have a suspended license after my fines are paid, i'll have ~1,000 to blow after selling a car and paying fines. In the time period of not having my license, i'm doing a head swap onto my 86 and a quad carb set-up, that should cost me around $500-$700 thus leaving me with $300-$500 to spend on another car.

A quick photoshop i did in a matter of minutes, i'd expect it to look better than this considering the lines aren't aligned properly and i had to erase alot of the side of the bumper due to the two pictures being at different angles.
