Do you have pics of the Vert? Also anything wrong with the body/top/electrical?


No leaks in the top that i am aware of. Last time i put the top down and back up was about a year ago, and it needed a little bit of help about halfway back up. Not sure if it was from the battery not being fully charged, or issues with motors.

The Body on the Vert is in Good Condition, a bit dirty right now but pretty straight. Also its not pictured with it but all four Alum wheels will be sold along with the Vert.

I have a a 1995 ST hatchback for sale, it currently has a ground issue i cant seem to work out the body has about 19X,XXX miles on it. the engine has less than 15k on it swapped it out about two years ago. Has a JDM transmission in it somewhere around 50-60k on that i believe. I still have original 7AFE engine and transmission that are included with it. It also has poly motor mount inserts as well

I also have a 1998 GT convertible with Auto trans. has 12X,XXX miles on it. I originally planned on swapping in a 3sgte. I purchased it from a high school kid who took it to wal-mart to have the oil changed and they only finger tightened the drain plug. latter in the week vibrated out lost all oil and locked up. I was able to un-sieze the engine, it runs but has a bad knock. probably best to just swap it out and be done with it.

I wish i didnt have to sell these and could finish them up but I started a new job and havent been able to find the time to work on them. I kept telling myself that id be able to find time to work on it, but its been over a year and no luck. So i would like to sell them to someone who can put them to good use as project, or parts cars. This being said i dont have enough time to work on them so i also dont have the time to part them out.

I would like $1,000 for each car OBO and the extra engine and transmissions, feel free to make me an offer! I will post some pictures of everything when i get the chance this weekend.

Okay Turns out it was the ground wires after all! while checking the ground with mt multimeter i left the door open with the keys in the ignition so i could listen for the dining if i found where it was not making a good connection and bridged it. took a wire brush to the grounds and starts right up now. Thanks for the help!

Now when idling it keeps revving by itself, from 2500-3000..

The car isnt starting anymore, it just started the one time. Now nothing happens at all when the key is turned.




100amp fuse looks good

Battery is fully charged with my multi-meter its reading 13.5 volts. I haven't checked the alternator yet.



Okay i'll check them again they all looked good though

Nothing, no horn, zero light, no clock. The door ajar light doesnt even come on when the doors are open

okay, just started up my 7afe for the first time after putting it in. Started up first try and was idling high at just under 3k, let it run for about a minute then turned it off. adjusted the throttle cable a bit then got in to try and start it again. it wouldnt start and had zero power. no dash lights, no nothing. Any ideas?

Just found that the wire harness wasnt clipped all the way it to the fuse box next to the battery. thanks though!

Okay, i just finished put my rebuilt 7AFE in my 95 ST made sure the wire harness is all plugged in, in the engine bay as well as inside. Put all the fluids in, hooked up a fully charged battery and tried to start her up. but no such luck. when i turn the key i can hear a click from the ecu area but that is it. The starter doesnt even make a noise. With the key in the on position the door ajar light map lights and headlights work. but the clock, cd player are not lighting up or turning on. I have double checked all the plugs from the wire harness that plug in under the dash and they are all secure. Any help is much appreciated!!

A couple of weeks before finding this I purchased an engine and trans for my ST down in Houston so most on my time and money have been tied up in that. The GT will have to wait till my funds are back up and my ST has the engine swapped out. The GT has an auto trans so I am thinking about doing a auto/manual swap while ive got the engine out as well.

But till then, here are some pics of the GT home and all cleaned up

This is my first post on here. I just came across a 99 GT Convertible for a few hundred dollars and jumped at the chance. At the least it would provide several upgrades for my ST. The interior and the exterior are in pretty good condition(the pictures dont do it justice) the odometer is at 122440. But the engine is seized up, long story short their son took it walmart and they only finger tightened the oil drain plug. It vibrated out and he ran it with out oil till it seized up. Do you think it would be worth it to try and unseize it? Or should I just use it to upgrade my 95 ST and part out what i dont use?
