    I got the 86 XT back on the road this weekend. Put a JDM motor in it.
    Had some issues with the motor like a stripped spark plug and some rust inside
    from sitting so long. Had the head helicoiled and then both of them cooked out.
    New gaskets and she is back on the road.... :)

    Well

    They could both use a good paint job. Maybe someday I'll get to that. Atleast there is not much on them for rust, pretty clean cars. Both came from Washington State.
