I have a 1992 240 vert fast strong engine but a lot of parts that need fixing. Let me go ahead and make the list for you guys and see what you you think. It needs either a new radiator support or some fabrication cause it was jacked up wrong by previous owner and broke the front of the radiator support in half so not safe driving it until i get it fixed. It also has no finder wells so gets a lot of rattling when idling. The top needs replacing and broke one of the bars that puts the top up. The reason i bought the car was because it came with 3 5 speed trannys, 2 Ka24de, holset turbo and inter cooler, air intake, megan racing engine mounts, tein springs(don't know if there any good so give me some feed back on that), I do not know if there car is worth keeping in more i love this car and i would love to fix it but, is it worth the fix with all that is wrong with it? Give me some input on what you guys think i really appreciate it.

no, you should probably get rid of it.

i know someone who has a truck and trailer who could do you a favor and get all that stuff out of your way... grab the chassis and the engines and the trannies. you wouldn't have to lift a finger or get a smudge of grease on yourself.

this kind of service usually costs a lot of money, but we'll do you a favor and not charge you anything.

restoring that car is way more work than it's worth.

If i were in that position, I would probably spend all my money restoring the car like I am doing to mine. I would keep the car and try and restore it. If you have a good job then you should be able to do it no problem.
