bld127 Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 This car is still for sale. It will be losing its spot in the garage shortly and going outside. If it doesn't sell soon it will have to go to ebay. I would rather sell it to someone on the boards. Let me know if I can answer any questions.Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gst4g64 Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 I have been looking for a widebody atlantic blue, but haven't had much luck. I have been considering this, but am still looking. I am located in Pittsburgh, PA. Do you think the vehicle could be driven here or would it need trailered/shipped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bld127 Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 The vehicle could probably be driven that far but I would recommend trailering it. I have to come out near pittsburgh later this month with a trailer to pick up a vehicle, I would be able to trailer this out within about 45 minutes of Pittsburgh. I would prefer that you see the vehicle in person before I bring it out that far though. Let me know if you are interested.Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bld127 Posted May 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 This car is still for sale, someone make me a reasonable offer. This car will be going outside in a few weeks. I really want it to go to someone on the boards that will finish it and make it the nice car it can be. If it isn't gone in a few weeks it will get advertised locally or go on ebay.Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 So what exactly is necessary to make her a reliable DD? Other than the paint of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bld127 Posted May 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 I would recommend going over the car and doing any regular maintanence items like, changing the fluids, repacking the wheel bearings, and any normal things you would do to a car you just purchased. The stock 88 sytle exhaust system still needs to be installed. When I bought the car I installed new brake pads all around, reset the tps, rebuilt the throttle body, etc, so I'm not sure if any of that needs to be redone yet. It probably wouldn't hurt to do plugs, wires, etc. I would say anything else would be up to you. The front tires have plenty of tread but don't match, the rears are winter treads with plenty of tread. All tires are the correct size though. I would probably replace the battery since it is probably at least 5 years old. I am including the 88/89 computer and igniter box which haven't been installed yet. Once those are installed you can probably switch the ports on the 3 port wastegate and run 10 psi. Not sure if the clutch and flywheel would hold real well running at 10 psi because it still has the smaller flywheel. The major bodywork is finished. There are still a few door dings that need to be addressed and some holes that need to be filled (like the license plate mounting holes in the front bumper and the holes on the rear side spoiler where someone mounted a car phone antenna). I would fix some of the work that the college kids did to it because it isn't smooth enough for my taste. The front spoiler has 2 small splits where it needsto be pushed back together. If I can answer any other questions please let me know.Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
