motor, tranny (little mod required); 81-82 GSL 3rd member. Also 81-85 rear disk brakes and front suspension will fit too but you have to buy the camber kit & rear disc brake bracket from bwaits.

Trunk lids and hoods are hard to find without rust holes. Windshields are hard to find and expensive to buy new.

rx3

Hood and trunk lids hard to find figure about 250 to 400 for the hood and 150 to 250 for a nice trunk. Windshields can be made but look for nothing under 300 . Fenders are hard to find nice because they always rust by the lower mount. I had five cars at one time but parted them all out.
