AK_GT Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Hello everyone, I'm a proud new owner of an 05' LGT Limited. I got a mixed story about the history of it, but from what I was told, the original owner had heavily modified the original motor and ended up pulling it to install in another car; just before he sold the car he swapped in a brand new 2.5 crate motor. I have no documentation on the swap, however, the motor looks far too clean to have 60k on it. To the point: While the car runs good, looks good, and drives fantastic, it's missing small odds and ends all over. The engine is missing the bracket that covers the belts (and I'm guessing allows the engine cover to be fastened to). Also, in the trunk it's missing a bunch of the plastic clips holding the carpet in place. Does anyone have exploded parts diagrams of the front end? Some of the rear would be nice too, or if you have a whole list of em' I won't complain Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AShoe Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 If you haven't already, have a mechanic or someone knowledgeable look it over for you. You may have a pristine running car, or a ticking time bomb. Check out the classified section when you start buying parts. It sounds like what you're missing should be cheap if you can find a part-out. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
