It's an '86 sport. It has Suspension Techniques springs and Tokico struts. The secondary injectors don't work.



I bought it as a project car, but I'm considering parting it out if the body doesn't pass my inspection. We'll see, I guess.

how much? and where'd ya find it?

I got it for $500 from a guy in Indiana. Getting it back here might be a little costly, but it shouldn't be too bad. I'm putting it in storage out there for a month or so while I try and figure out what it needs.

Great price.Congrats.Post pics if possible.

nice find

orange my favorite color!



jk



looks straight and some bling bling 80's rims too!

aluminum hood? that looks pretty good, at least you get the big brakes and 5 lug, and no rusty sunroof



mike

you and BJ can have the sport squad

It could be an ecu problem if the secondaries are not coming up, or a broken ground to those injectors.

I'm going to check the grounds when I move it into storage, and if it needs an ECU, I can ask RD to borrow one of his.



Don't make fun of my rims, Jon...they look like yours. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



It does have the aluminum hood, and it's in good shape, except for the faded sunrise red.

they kinda do look like mine........!!



ah well. i will live so get that pos running if you want help buy me a plane ticket https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

we have a couple of ecu's kicking around



mike

Wooooo



now were twins. kind of.

Yours is better, though.

if you wanna ship it via truck i reccommend ableautotransport.com



from texas to nj it took them from saturday morning (placed order) until wednesday at 6am to get me my car. it was picked up late sunday night from texas and made it here late tuesday but the guy decided to hold it until the morning.

I got a quote of $450 from them. That's a bit high, seeing as how it approaches the purchase price, but we'll see. I'm thinking I can get it running well enough to drive back, but we'll see. It runs great until it hits the wall at 3800.

there is a TII in portland for like 800. im gonna go rob a bank then buy that one. nice find ed!

If I end up parting this car out, I might just get a TII instead of doing a sport swap.



I wanted that TII on Oregon, but I want to see a car before I buy it.

wow $450?



check the quote again they say Deposit, then Total price. dont add those together, the second price is the complete price with deposit included.



it only cost me $625 to ship from texas to NJ



kevin.

that'll make it back, 3800is like 90? in 5th



mike

if im cruising i keep it well under 3800rpms so it should be fine to drive home.



kevin.

the cruise wont be bad, its the acceleration that could get ugly.

well a stock N/A has some power down low sorta



yeah you could drive it home https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

I'd have to fix a couple other things to get it home, but I think it'd make it.



Oops, the total cost was $400, not $450. I wasn't adding the deposit, I just forgot what it said. I'd rather risk driving it back, but I'm crazy like that.

i'd drive it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

you already know i would

Is it an pre 87 1/2 or later?

I have a sport too https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

you don't live and NJ and are not related to Ed https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

good point, i dont think barely anybody is from around NC in this forum is there?

It's an '86.

oooOOoo, it could be the resistor pack, right carlos?

I'm in Aiken SC and go to Charlotte frequently

rims look like somthing that came off of a porshe they do look alright though... congrats...

The rims match the year of the car, just not the current style.



RD has a spare resistor pack, I think. I should give that a shot.

when you gonna go out there? IL isnt too far off, let me know if you want some help.

that's a unique N/A https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blush.png

well its all about the period look. that means you need your slippery when wet tape too though.



mike

I bet I still have my slippery when wet tape. Too bad I only have a CD player.



Peng, I'll be out there on the 18th of this month, but I don't know if I'll be working on it or just putting it into storage. Thanks for the offer!
