Not for what I'm trying to do here, gotta be a Neon. But, go for it and build it anyway! It sounds like a good father/son project to me! And do a Build Thread!
That thing could be pretty good in U/SA.

So.......... no takers? I don't get it, are you guys just so jaded that you can't lower yourselves to do a Neon? Are you all just too busy polishing fenders and figuring out your B-J numbers to be bothered? Is it that Mother Mopar doesn't support a "Neon Program" so you can't call and get what you want?
I honestly can't believe that someone won't at least give it a try.
What have you got to lose? The rest of us real Racers can't possibly think any less of you (can a FFFord guy think let alone think any less?) anyway. So what if you fail.
Call me a whatever but please, one of you step up and prove me wrong.
Go ahead, I DARE ya!

I would imagine if the Mopar class money was like it once was several would be right on it. In the words of Archie and Edith" those were the days...."

HEY!
On my Escort , so that I don't have to spend 1500 - 3000 on a custom cam, I got an Uncommon billet cam from England but it doesnt have the cam sensor trigger on it. So I'm going to use an early 1.9L distributor with 3 of the triggers cut off and wire it to the cam sensor plug so that I will still have sequential FI. Does that qualify?

I've been looking for a nice puss case that doesn't have serious body rot (you know..."integrity") or trans issues. I looked at two of them this past Saturday. Most of what I am finding has rocker panel delete. I think it will be a fun challenge, and I honestly don't plan on spending more than $1k on the whole thing.

As far as support from the Mothership...there were some Neon books put out in the mid-late 90's. I have found the Mothership of no use though...even having a wide valve cover project myself. Hoping to have that pig out in /EA mid-Summer...

I've got to take a trip to my Buddies junkyard later today. I have to get some pics of his original, unmolested 409 Impala to help another Buddy with his build.
While I'm there I'll see what he's got and what's in-the-wind.
Steve, let me know if I can help you in any way!!! Thanks!
