As much as I don't want to sell, I guess the time has come to part with my vert. I'm buying a house and I need to clear out some stuff.
I picked this car up in June, it was about to be scrapped due to lack of title and some work that needed performed. I aquired a new PA title, and did the following:
Timing belt/tensioner/spring
Water pump
Silicone coolant hoses
All belts
Cam seal
Vc gasket
Intake manifold gaskets
Tstat/gasket
Heater core
Plugs
Air filter
Cap
Rotor
Battery
15x7 Ronal ls with 225/50/15 Falkens (3500miles on tires)
Vogtland springs
Bilstein Sport Shocks
New strut mounts/shock mounts
Mtech1 Steering wheel
JVC digital media receiver with integrated Bluetooth
Luke box (two 8s, best e30 vert sub box ever)
pioneer amp
new shift knob
new shift boot
replacement dash
other stuff I'm sure I'm forgetting
I do have 90% of the receipts from what I did, plus paper work from repairs from the previous owner
I'm selling with a bunch of extras:
Chrome euro bumpers
2.7 bottom end on a rolling engine stand
Nice 885 head
All accessories/intake manifold/fuel rail
3.73 LSD diff
*new in box control arms
*new in box tie rods
*new revshift CABs
(I may have these* parts installed this weekend)
The good:
-Everything listed above has less than 3500 miles on it
-The car has around 160k (odo broke when I hit the reset button in July, I do have a new set of gears to put in I've just been busy.)
-The body is SUPER clean and rust free. The underside of the car/rockers/fenders rear under bumper area is spotless.
-The paint cleans up really nicely and looks great.
-Everything works minus a/c; it's intermittent due to needing charged. I never got around to it ...because convertible.
-Tires have about 3500 miles on them
-Comes with the og intro cassette tape and manuals
-NO WARNING LIGHTS!
I took this car on two decent road trips this summer without a flaw. I'd drive this thing anywhere.
The not so good:
-The top does not leak and works properly but is showing its age
-The drivers side roof seal is so-so and drips on occasion I was going to have a top put on eventually and it wasn’t bad enough to bother me
- The interior is showing its age. Mainly the drivers seat.
-The trunk has some dings and the roundels are faded. I am including a super straight rust free trunk lid with no third brake light and an IS spoiler. It just needs color matched.
That's it for the negatives; it really is a nice car and was an excellent daily.
As far as a price goes, I'd like to get 4000. I think it's a good price due to how clean and well maintained it is including all of the extras, so I'm probably not going to go much lower.
Here are a few pics from the summer. I'll get more detailed stuff this weekend when I'm over there.
Help me find a good home for this car, its a few items away from being absolutely perfect. :up:
