Yes, went for an unbelievable 85K.

I was 2nd owner, the orig owner was my neighbor. I sold it about 2.5 years ago. I took the AC out, the orig owner had it installed not knowing about the hack job.

The hole cut in the engine compartment for the compressor let hot air in from the heat exchangers causing the motor to run too lean as well as the engine fan was blowing hot air over the motor. I had a 74' 1.8 without AC and that motor seemed to run hot as well compared to 2.0 cars I've owned. I remembered hearing about a heat problem with 1.8 heads back in the 80's.
