Description for Mazda 323 1988

Located 12533 New York. Must pick up with flatbed/tow truck. AS IS, unfinished project
title in hand, Rare Mazda 323 GTX, turbo, 5 speed, 4wd, hard top (non sunroof) these were all gobbled up by autocross guys in the late 80s, and 90s and not many left. 1 of 1,243 imported between 88-89. Not many left. This one was saved from the scrap yard, and lots of money put into it.
Has RARE OEM type sideskirts, Digital Dash, and a nice set of OEM Mazda 626 GT Turbo Aluminum wheels with Brand new OEM centercaps.. Michelin tires are good.
Had a maaco paint job last summer as well as some rust patched.. looks good from 10 feet but it wasnt an all out A+ resto job. small rust hole in driver floor. This is a 29 year old Car thats been in NY its whole life. i had the carfax for it.. NY since day 1. . so considering it still exists is a miracle.
has some lowering springs (unknown brand) new rotors and pads, calipers, rear trailing arms, cap, rotor, plugs, wires, and a bunch of other work done since i saved it. Gas door popper is broken and have not gotten into it to add gas so its out of fuel at the moment but ran and drove in the fall before sitting for the winter. Last it ran it was smoking heavily at idle.. probably the turbo but the engine ran good. i have a video on my phone of it running for any doubters.
swapped in rare digital cluster. and added some little odds and ends like new OEM badges ( after these pics, and grill, new side decals .
pictures are from the fall in various stages (before side decals, and new rear badges, but still hasnt moved or changed since. really did not want to sell this but too many projects, and baby on the way.
needs ebrake work/cable, needs turbo work or new turbo, some grinding/rubbing noise from rear when last driven? needs hatch struts, rear window has tint gunk residue, little issues expected from 29 yr old car., will need some odds and ends and love to be a safe driveable car.. or use the shell to go all out to build a offroad toy?
located Hopewell Junction NY 12533 i will not delive, no you cant drive it home. Bring a trailer/flatbed. cash in person preferred.
