Yes - but they're SO MUCH less expensive than a new car - if you have
good enough of a chassis to use, and plan to drive out your investment
instead of selling it -
Major factory new or rebuilt parts are seldom justified for a 20+ year
old car - they just cost SO MUCH more than the car will

If don't have, and don't want to go and get it, then dis-connect the

Yeah, that was a '93 season highlight film. I was surprised to see that
the Evo II wing was either obsolete or (more likely)
That could be arranged. What the heck are you planning though?

One other thing, I would love to try and start this engine one the
ground. If I have a starter laying around I might see about it. Only
thing though is that the oil has been drained and it has that HUGE pan
