  1. Sorry guys, still figuring out how to get them in the post. I got them all successfully uploaded to my gallery. I will have to :searchnewbie: and then get them up. Link to craigslist ad: http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/1213492961.html
  2. LOCATION: Aurora, CO SHIPPING: Local delivery possible MILEAGE: approx. 140k. dont have the car here right now to verify PRICE: $1000 firm RUNS: Runs and drives, but not 100% roadworthy right now ENGINE MODS: No mods NON-FUNCTIONAL PARTS/FEATURES OR PROBLEMS: Headlights and power windows not working right now. have not troubleshot. RUST?: Virually no rust at all. Mild body damage easily fixed. OPTIONS: Lots of spare parts DESCRIPTION: I bought this from a guy who was using it for parts. It was 85% complete when I got it, but torn apart. I spent about six months gathering parts up from primarily SQClub members and finally got it running and driving. Now I need a reliable, good mileage commuter car so this project has to go. PREFERRED CONTACT METHOD: Reply here for more info. PICTURES: Some in my profile I think if not ask and I can email. FIRST PERSON INTERESTED SHOWED UP WITH CASH IN HAND...SO IT'S GONE! The dream lives on though....
  3. I am looking for an air dam, but I'm guessing shipping from Puerto Rico to Colorado would be horrible. There is a carbon fiber air dam on here for $350, so I don't know if you'll get $250 for fiberglass..... Best of luck
  4. item arrived as described, on time. Great packaging....great doing business with you! Thanks!
  5. Need a 7" rim and an air dam. shipping to 80013.
  6. need a stock FMIC, preferably cheap....still have on of these? shipping to 80013
  7. Yeah, I know....to each his own. I guess I'm just a little jealous. The only Starquest I have ever owned still doesn't drive. I've only been for a ride in one once, and I would hate to see such a beautiful example getting trashed in a high school parking lot. Back in the day I had more than a few dents, dings, and scratches put on my ride by unknowing teenagers. If his daughter respects the gift and safety then I think it's wonderful for her! Someday I will undoubtedly put my son, in a safe, reliable, but decidedly bada#% ride!!
  8. Dang, I'm a grown man and haven't even gotten to ride in an MPI car......in fact I've only ever had ONE ride in a Palermo Starion!! Man, I gotta get my quest on the road. Congratulations though, my son is 7 months now and it truly is the coolest thing to watch him. He has already spent a little time in the garage with me, working on my Quest! Many, many, blessings are yet to come to you and your family. Enjoy!!
  9. So I ran into a guy here in Denver (actually he only lives a couple of blocks from me) driving a pristine 89 Fiji. I started talking with him about it and it turns out this car only has 41k original miles. It's a 5spd, SHP, Fiji, TOTALLY STOCK. It was wrecked when he got it. He put fresh paint on it new tires and is now driving it occasionally. He says all together he has $3500 invested in the car! No he won't sell because........are you ready for this???? ITS FOR HIS 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost cried right then and there!!! I mean, it's great that he is giving his daughter a nice car and all, but holy crap! a beautiful, unmolested, low miles, Conquest??? He had just finished telling me how fast they are, and how he had blown off an SRT4 that morning with it!! I can only hope that he will come to his senses and sell me the car before his daughter turns 16 (haha). She is only 14 now, so at least there is a chance!!
  10. I just got a tip that a local pick and pull has two quests and a starion!!! He told me the starion is a Fiji Blue car with black leather in excellent condition. I will try to make it out there asap to get pics and asess the situation! I will keep you all posted. BTW. The pick n pull is in Denver :biggrinumbrella1:
  11. so I ran it for a couple of minutes, smoke pretty much cleared up. starts easy, idles fine. still very slow response on the throttle. Forward and reverse gears both work..... Man I love the sound of boost!!!!!! :character0292: :jumping0045:
  12. Well, I finally got her started!!!! Actually pretty much fired right up! Pouring out some pretty thick smoke right now, but hey it hasn't run in a few years!!! Idles pretty decent, slow throttle response, didn't go over 3500rpm, it is building a little boost (not bad considering no load). WOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Now to bolt up the front brakes, alternator, tie up a few loose ends and take her around the block!!!! Thanks to all members on here who have given me help along the way!!! :hmm3grin2orange:
  13. how much for the alternator. Shipping to 80013. Paypal only.
  14. alternator in working condition. Shipping to 80013. Thanks
  15. David, Back again...haha.... Got an alternator for cheap? This darn project is breaking the bank!!! Thanks, Russ
