The basics:

1984 ~176,000 miles. Last owner stored under tarp and the paint is heavily oxidized. Interior is in decent shape. Engine runs strong but leaks coolant. Tranny Grinds into 5th, GSL-SE Tranny. Suspension is GSL-SE as are tires, breaks ect. will run long enough for test drive but recommend towing to final destination due to coolant leak. $1000 asking price, all offers will be considered.









More advanced:

Engine: 6 to 7k on rebuild, large street port, lots o' power, Leaks coolant, Leak behind front cover, Has vibration at 5k, got a flywheel to fix it but haven't installed it. Flywheel is light weight steel will include for $250, Small Oil Leak on filter return line.



Tranny Grinds into 5th, wines in about every gear, GSL-SE (Taller 5th gear)

Intake: Custom 3" Cold Air, home made with PVC pipe, kinda cheesy but works.



Exhaust: RB Header, RB Muffler, 2" pipe in between, piping rings due to being too thin. small exhaust leak at engine will include new gasket i bought for free.



Suspension: Swapped from 84 GSL-SE, that means larger 4 wheel disk breaks, LSD, 14" Rims, also RB sway bars. handles awesome, stops on a dime.



Interior: Rips in Drivers seat, no stereo (will set up stock stereo that i have if requested), some holes from switches, missing drivers side storage bin. broken console trim (have replacement will include for $40). Other wise in good shape for age.



Exterior: Oxidized, some dents scratches, missing drivers side mirror, louvers are bent, front valence hangs on drivers side, air scoops on front have been modified. have both metal and glass sunroof!



Misc: AC works great, 40 degrees at vent in mid summer after 10 mins cool down. Windows are power and work sort of, small amount of play in steering. Battery dead from sitting, windsheild wipers only work in high, have replacement motor extra $40.



Also in addition to the parts listed above i have more (smog stuff, radiator, drive shaft 100s of nuts bolts and washers etc.), will sell car and all parts for $1600.

call or PM for more details on anything, willing to explain anything in horrifying detail if necessary.

Is the whine from the transmission or the rear end? Do you have any issues with oil leaks?



Thank you,

Thank you,



The main whine is from the rear end, i believe the front bearing has dryed out/rusted a bit due to the way the rear end was stored before i got it, the transmission also whines in 2nd. it has a small oil leak on the oil return line from the filter.





Also



Update, Coolant leak is now fixed and the engine vibrations are gone...But now the Secondaries mix lean...very lean. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683454.gif
