Hey all,

Thank so much for all the great information on here. I've been a lurker but now I have my own!!
1967.5 1600, KA24DE swap

It's a running project, paint & motor done in 2008.
Next steps will be:
More comfortable seats
Fix door locks & hood lock

Will start a build thread soon.

Welcome! Do you have any history on the car?

I got it from a guy in Hayward,Ca. He got it from an older guy in much worse condition. Original paint was green with lots of rust. PO re-painted it Metallic blue, gunmetal Rota RB’s and did the engine swap with a S13 KA24DE. Autometer gauges and newer soft top.
Motor runs pretty well, headers, accordion intake, race clutch, 22mpg on the freeway but the wiring is all over the place.
I’ll be getting all of his extra parts (gauges, hardtop, roll bar, lights, extra rear end, set of mag wheels, etc) so if anyone needs anything hit me up. Lots of used parts for sale if I don’t need it. I’ll keep the hardtop and roll bar.

Photos, please!

Sounds like a cool ride. Are you in the Bay Area, too?

You've come to the right place! There are a bunch of smart and friendly people here.

And for some (me!) this site is invaluable.

I also have a 67.5 1600, so if I can do anything to help, I'd be happy to.

Can't wait to see photos and the build thread.
