Just curious...why part it if it's as good as it sounds? These are hard to come by, and I'd hate to see another nice old 7 go by the wayside.


So do I, but this car will need a lot of TLC to bring it back. I am considering using the engine and rear end in a 635 for SCCA. The engine has a turbo and is the same engine as the 635Csi with no turbo except that it has solid lifter rods and can handle the extra heat with the turbo as well as save time on the rebuild.

Besides it will give me a spare engine, that I can blueprint and then I don't need the chassis.

I'll consider a trade if anyone has it. But I want a turbo ready engine.
