As the title says, 85 Merk XR4ti. Needs ALOT of work. Seals in the engine need to be replaced, power steering leaks, needs a complete rewire for the ECU (Was going to do Megasquirt, but, yeah, I've got another project that is taking priority), front control arms are work out. Basically, I'd suggest using it for a parts car. NO TURBO WITH CAR!! Im keeping the holset in the pics for my other project.

Now, for the good:

New head gasket/cam seal/intake manifold gasket/exhaust gasket/valve seals/valve cover gasket. Ported head, done by me. Not perfect, or overly agressive, but should do the job nicely. E6 manifold, not cracked, but, one stud welded in, as it was stripped beyond repair via conventional methods. no interior, except the dash and seats.

Other good:

rust on passengers side completely cut out, and new metal welded in. Drivers side 1/2 done.

Rear 1/2 of the car seam welded

rear drive and driveshaft in good shape, as is the driveshaft bearing and couplers.

Please see pictures here, 1/2 way down, and continue on to pagees 6-12
