This would be one of the early lancers correct?

yes, it is a usdm version of the 1st gen lancer. its a 4-speed. its pretty reliable but the front pinion seal in the rear end it shot and doesnt hold any oil, thus making noise and i wouldnt recoment driving it very far. also like i mentioned before, that 1.6 had 83 hp stock in '77 and it sure hasnt gone up any...

heres a quick pic of what i looked like when i bought it. it looks quite a bit different now but it will give you an idea until i get off my duff and take some pics

not very good pics, but i just took these. its all in crappy rattle can black. i didnt want to have it 2-toned after i did the bumber work so i rattle caned the whole thing thinking i was going to paint it soon... but hasnt happened yet. american racing wheels too. the original set in the above pic are included. and a studded spare. also in the truck i have the original grille but the 30 year old plastic mounting tabs broke so i didnt put it back on, i was going for the cobra look

also what apears to be a rebuilt carb for it.
ok, for the pics...

no it doesnt suck. thats all the car was worth. i have the good looking year so i wasnt too keen on building the "gargoyle" as we called it
