It is XR7. I think it may have been a 20th. Found 20th badges on the floor board. I leave for work at 2:30 pm usually. I may be working this weekend.

The interior is blue, and painted black.

If it's an XR7 it isn't a 20th.

I think when XR7Cat asked "Why", he was asking why you're parting the car out? From the pics it looks better than most of the Fox cars I've owned (and it has the moonroof!)

It is an '88 XR-7. Blue interior with a moonroof.
Ugh, that's so close to mine... I feel bad for the poor car.
Tell me it doesn't have a leather interior *cringes*

I'd love to take some stuff off of it but I'm a wee bit too far away.

Not for nothin, but wasn't there one in that green color where the hood opened up backwards up for sale on e-Bay about 2 years ago?

I've had this for a year or more. It's where the 5 speed and 5 lug came for my yellow car. motor needs rebuilt. Roof was not working, and the interior wasn't in that great a shape. I would have liked to have kept it, and maybe had it redone in the future, but I didn't have anywhere to store it. It has no transmission also, and is missing the Electronic dash that was inside before I bought it. It came with a skirt, but that was gone before I bought it also.

I thought there were some 20th XR7's. Can't remember, and your most likely right, but a moot point now anyway. It's an 87' by the way. The car does have leather seats, blue painted black. I'm not crazy about leather. They are actually in decent shape, with a few very small tears. Car actually came with almost all the bells and whistles for an 87'. Whoever had it (two people before me) should be slapped for letting it get in such bad shape.

Since I have 4 other cats, I wanted to keep what I could off the car at least. car needs allot more than it looks to have. Digital cameras can be so deceiving. I don't know yet how much time I have before it all has to go, but I hope not before next weekend. Allot has been removed, but there is so much more I want to strip off the car.

Never having done this before, it's allot more work than I expected. Now my hands keep getting dirty.....yuck :hick:

As long as the city doesn't give me a hard time about it, I think I will try to take the car all the way down. So, hopefully in a couple weeks I'll be done, and start a thread selling some of the parts. I wasn't planning on going this far with it, but since I'm getting allot of questions for parts, I'll try to do what I can as far as taking it all the way down. So anyone interested in parts, hold up, and give me some time.

thanks guys.
