Blissland3 Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 Hi ... I'm looking for an automatic in good running condition. I know it's a needle in a haystack but I thought it couldn't hurt to mention. Every day I lament the loss of my first one which I destroyed 4 1/2 years ago. Worst day of my life. It's very hard to live without. But I'm determined to bring her back. Ideal is a red '88 TSi but I would consider anything with an intercooler and automatic transmission in good shape mechanically. Well modified would be a bonus but badly modified is a deal breaker. I've been through that already. The exception is I definitely don't want an aftermarket fuel system. Injectors are ok but not the computer. I need a mas and isc. And no mystery problems. The closer to ulster county new york the better. I realize I might be waiting a long time but I'll wait as long as it takes. Depending on the price I might need to apply for a loan. But I do have a '96 bmw 328i sedan in good condition which I would be happy to trade. It's running fine, pulls better than a stock Starion, the only problem is it's a bmw. Thank you for any interest you might have. Please don't be offended if I don't respond immediately because I can't get here every day. -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my daily driver as soon as I got her road worthy. I let the inspection run out while installing the brand new head, so it's currently not PA inspected, but should pass with no issues at all if bought an titled in PA. (Clean PA Title as well) You will find there has been a butt-load done to this car. I'll do my best to explain what all has been done, but I'm sure I'll miss something, so here it goes: She's a 1988 Chrysler Conquest TSi (non-SHP) - Rio/Mexican Red (123K on body approx 25k on rebuilt shortblock, no sunroof) - Completely rebuilt G54B (bored .20, cooked, magnafluxed, line bored, decked, ) Balance shafts eliminated, Clevite bearings and used all Fel-Pro gaskets (approx. 25K on rebuild) - All new timing components from DAD's (enginemachineservice.com) website - Motor and all accessories (timing cover/water pump/pulleys etc.) have been painted and/or powder coated - Newer Automatic Transmission L4N71B from '89 (clean, with OD ...works great, recently replaced filter, fluids, inhibitor switch, linkage) - Brand New HKS LET-M01 Cat-Back Exhaust System - Brand new M28 NJ Head (approx 20 miles on it) , new seals, springs, stock valves and all hydraulic lifters ( sorry guys, the Mitsu logo VC will not come with purchase, a stock g54b one will be installed in place of this one) - New 650CC/950CC Injectors from Brian Lower Shores Performance - NGK Plugs (yes, the correct plugs) and NGK Plug Wires - MK1 Chrome intake piping, and (I think.. a KD? OVCP) powder coated black mist with TSi decal - Very new R1 Concepts Drilled/Slotted rotors and new hawk pads (all 4 corners) - Blue 3SX Braided Stainless Steel Teflon Coated Brake lines (all 4 corners) - Newer Tokico Blues all around (approx 10,000k on them) - Polished rims (clear stripped/sanded and polished) - Completely rebuilt stock 12ATurbo - Heater Core has been replaced. - Stock 89 seats, typical wear could use re-upholstering and/or seatcovers - Mookeeh Blue Indiglo gauges - My own HVAC overlay (with blue LEDs) - Blue headlight inserts - New Natallica's Outer Body Decals (black and black reflective) - End links and sway bar bushings replaced - Newer Dunlop Direzza 50/55 Series Tires (possibly more than half tread left) - Newer uncracked/non-leaking taillights, very clean! - Clear fog lenses with new bulbs - Newer windshield installed (used, original was cracked) - Sony Digital Media player Bluetooth head unit with 4 all new Sony Xplod speakers (no CD, plays mp3 players in TuneTray (steering controls will work with addition of PAC-SWI box - Brand New Power Antenna unit installed, functions perfectly as it should - ...and last but not least, door panels were upgraded with 'completely refurbished' 89 Auto-Down window switch and passenger side window switch. Also, I'm throwing in a BRAND NEW, primer gray front facia or 'airdam' with the purchase! This airdam is ready for paint and has 'birdscreen' in the vent holes. Reason being, there are a few spots on the current airdam that were repaired by the previous owner that are starting to show signs of wear.. I cared to much for the wrenching I've put into this car, it has never been sideways and I never drove it like crazy. I just enjoyed the normal 'snappy' driving and the looks and questions I would get. I loved this car too much to dog on it, so no worries there. AC was non functioning when I purchased the car most of it is still there but I never had it gone over and charged. ABS unit still works. This car was supposed to be painted Blue, hence the under hood already being painted. It's not the greatest job in the world but it looks a lot cleaner than it did, I just never got around to getting the rest of her painted. Other projects took precedence and this was 'function over form'. To be honest she could use a coat of paint, she's starting to show her pink but I've recently used a Meguire's 'Fine Cut' polish on it, but typical clear cracking on the hood. There are a few small 'light cancer' spots appearing (rear rockers and rear wheel wells) that have been painted over to keep them from getting worse until it was totally repainted. But nothing the paint shop couldn't whip back into shape quickly, and not as bad as most. Keep in mind this car is over 25 years old. I have most all of my receipts for this build for the buyer and I hope there is enough information here for you, if you can think of any questions, feel free to TEXT or EMAIL and I'll be glad to assist! Buyer would set up any kind of shipping or transporting of vehicle via truck or trailer, however the car runs fine. Due to the fact it's not currently inspected or tagged it's not legally allowed on the highway, it will be necessary to rent a transport/dolly to get it from A to B. I'm asking $3800 OBO for her. Like most cases, I have almost double this in it, but I know I'll never get that back, and that's cool. I'm offering her up AS-IS, no warranties are implied. I'm sure it's common knowledge around here, that this is normally the case but I just want to throw it out there. If interested please TEXT or EMAIL with your information and hopefully we can work something out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natallica Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Yup, mines still available. Been busy and sick.But only looking for the cash, no trades... need to downsize. -N8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blissland3 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I did see that white one ... it could be a good project for someone but I'm really looking for something that needs as little work as possible initially. And the colors are important because I'm trying to resurrect the one I lost. Which was red with black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
