How many MX-3's are in your Junk yard? What do the look like

Post by mikeetown »

HAHAHAAH! well anyway. I've seen around 25 mx-3's come through picknpull during 2012. It and even split between I4 and V6 mx-3's.

We should all rant!!! I pretty much check out each one for goodies. I found a KLDE swap into a special edition mx-3 that had the K8 intake manifold on it. That was funny.

I found a 94 mx3 with green painted rims on one side (neon), red neon on the other, some crazy dash that said phillipines rule and a bunch of neon lights all over it. hahahahaha.

Anyway, thats a start!

The junkyard in my neighboring city crushed a '93 just 2 days ago... Had Black Altezzas and an Invader hood. :( I got there one day too late.

I'd seen the car on and off Craigslist for the past 2 years, it was KL swapped, but the owner claimed it needed a rebuild. There were a few parts worth looking at... but he wouldn't part it out.

Yeah, I was bummed to say the least... It's not something I would personally use, but I knew there would be interest on here if I snagged it.

The guy really should have sold me the hood before he junked it. :(
