  1. “Back in the game” = “flip the very first one I find” 😎
  2. I’d never attempt to enter the market of SQs and hope to be profitable. These cars are a drain on your finances.
  3. Direct is the only way I know to be. The seller could be leaving money on the table by giving no effort in the presentation.
  4. Should have taken the time to make it really stand out and talk all about the car. No mention of maintenance records. Nothing. What all has been replaced and when? Thats my favorite part of selling a car. Putting forth amazing effort that really stands out. That’s why I usually achieve top dollar. People buy the seller before they buy the car.
  5. Worst description ever. Zero details about anything.
  6. $1.48/each on Rock Auto. preset gap is 44
  7. NGK 7031 is OE plug. Gapped to 36-38 is what I ran for 17psi on a 20G.
  8. I’m sure there are plenty of used throttle bodies laying around. Guys on FB will have tons of them…. Just buy a used TB. Should be able to grab them for $20 or so….
  9. Congrats. It really is an insanely clean flatty. Still hate you had to get it from a dealer for a premium and not the original owner. Are you picking it up or having it delivered?
  10. I still lurk….although I sold my CQ in November 2023…
  11. Steve Comer’s car he bought in Sep 2023. His reserve is $30k.
  12. pop up on BringATrailer? I guess the FS post was deleted of the guy posting his 1-owner Yellow 89 with 30k miles. And wanting to sell it with no price like SQC is an auction platform. He wouldn’t throw out a price as he thought it would hurt his ability on BAT if people knew his reserve price. People will pay what they’re gonna pay regardless. Anyways, I was truly interested in it but I guess we are waiting to see it show up on BAT.
  13. He bought it here: look at photos https://carsandbids.com/auctions/3OgRYgAz/1989-chrysler-conquest-tsi
  14. Window sticker says “PV2 buckskin” Google it and it gives 2 references: ”Chrysler Light Buckskin PV2” ”Palermo Grey Metallic L83” So what we call Palermo, the window sticker calls it “PV2 Buckskin”
  15. We’ve determined buckskin is the paint code. The interior in that car is regular black.
  16. I think I’m right. buckskin is paint. paint code is “L83 Light Buckskin” for 1989….
  17. I think the “PV2 buckskin” is referring to the exterior. Not the interior. google “PV2 buckskin” and it pulls up paint codes. cause I have a window sticker that says “PY1 Yellow” in the same exact area. And it was for a yellow 88 Conquest.
  18. Dealer paid $5500 off FB Marketplace in December…..
  19. Nice 14yr bump. is Turbo Lab of America not taking in any new business?
  20. Doubt it’ll bring $25k. It’s a red 87. And the market is trending downwards….

    BaT

    Red 87…..blah Plus, a dealer bought it. It’ll be flipped to some idiot who doesn’t follow the market closely….
  22. As awesome as the car was, and time invested, and all the effort……. Not having it in my garage doesn’t change how I normally spend my days. The impact of the lack of material things is much smaller than we anticipate….
  23. Even my kids said “dad, you should have cried for more views” It wasn’t too big of a deal. Simply time to move on. Did you watch the packing up video? I thought it might be kind of boring watching me pack a tote. But I thought SQ people might relate a little to some of the things I had saved…
