Junkyard Rescue: Rare '1995 Dodge Neon Nitro Yellow Green Neon ACR gets fully restored!

This video documents my full restoration (and three separate engines its had!) of my 1995 Dodge Neon Nitro Yellow Green ACR Coupe. Only 1595 Nitro Yellow Green Neons were made, and this one is an ACR package so its one of 82 built in this spec. ACR's were lightweight factory racing package cars that had no fog lights, no power options, no side moldings, no spoiler for maximum weight savings and all came with a manual transmission. Neons have always done well with racing, but ACR packages did even better due to the weight savings and better gearing compared to regular manual transmission Neons.

Say what you want about these little cars but these things were fun to drive! My first was a 95 Plymouth Neon. My second was a 97 Sport. The one I have now is an 05 SRT-4. Great job!!

[@zacharyariail134]

Awesome sleeper, but I think it would look cool with the stock spoiler

[@thatlilvoice]

Beautiful. I love the 1st gen neons. Especially the coupe. I had bought one for me to tinker with (non ACR), but it I bit too much than I could chew. Yours is beautiful

I once owned a 95 Neon Acr...It was a pocket rocket and i loved it, i had a chance to make a couple grand on the car selling it and i did but i always regretted it, they won't ever be super valuable, or maybe they will, but it was a sweet car.

[@modernceo]

Most Neon owners lose money with their cars/investments in performance, but as long as it makes you happy, thats all that matters!

[@harmonygritz2839]

[@terrypikaart4394]

Always like the neon having 5 lug nuts. Just seems less cheap

[@modernceo]

No podemos decir lo que estás preguntando. Puede enviarnos un correo electrónico a ModernPerformance o, si necesita una pieza general, puede publicarla en algunos de los grupos de Facebook de Neon para ver si alguien tiene la pieza a la venta.
