Running, Driving* Project 1989 MK1B MR2

$2000 OBO

IMG_20250309_140759_722.jpg



I have had this since late 2011 and slowly fixed it up while commuting with it until I slid it into a utility pole last October. I have too many projects right now so I am looking for a good home and MR2 enthusiast to send this to.

Passenger side shock tower is crumpled and the A-Pillar is pushed up such that the door glass doesn't line up.

It fire right up and runs smooth. *It steers and can be driven short distances, but will need to be trailered.

If you are a sheetmetal and body whiz, this project is for you!
If you have a shell in need of a complete drivetrain and interior swap, you have come to the right place!
If you want to chop off the front and build a tube frame for a race car, right on!

I am not parting this out or selling it to someone who has that intention.

Clean title (I did not and do not have collision, so the insurance never looked at it)
