SO much want here: http://baltimore.craigslist.org/cto/4752476163.html But I have 2 All Tracs that dont run already, and my AW11 needs a new radiator.... Someone from here should but this! Edit: But I'm seriously considering sending this guy an email. I need to have a total of 4 Celica's like I need to be missing a leg. Edit 2: I think I'm going to call him today and see if its still available..... alternate.eago fucked around with this message at 14:32 on Nov 21, 2014 |

If I had the money I'd be on my way to buy that right now. Hope it finds a good home.

http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/4771395245.html Dear lord I wanna go get this. It's turbocharged, in fantastic condition, and it's all the styling that I like. The only problem is, it's 3 hours away. .... Any Chicagoland Goons wanna help me on a road trip?

I could drive this while I work on my All Tracs (because they never work). And it's clean, and because it's the GTS, it has the 3sge, which is the All Trac Engine without the turbo.

Sperglord Firecock posted:My bad. I'm just grumpy that this guy won't return my e-mails with even a simple yes. I really don't have a lot of timeframe to be looking at cars, and I've been looking for a suitable light zippy coupe for 2 months now. Pretty sure that's a troll add, if that car is in good condition it's worth twice that.

Sperglord Firecock posted:http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/4771395245.html First thing to do, pop the hatch and lift up the rear carpet to expose the tool kit. The owner will know exactly where it is. Once that is exposed, pull it out. Inspect the sheet metal underneath. The tail light seals always leak to some degree after this much time if they haven't been per-emptively worked on. If so, expect to see rust. Possibly lot of it. Also pull out the spare and take a look at the condition of the inside of the rear quarter. If it has a digital dash, ensure it works reliably. There is a power unit under the steering column behind the ignition switch which commonly fail. I don't even know if they are available anymore. Other electrical gremlins are common. Make sure everything works, even things like high-beams. Control arm bushings in the rear get eaten with some regularity. Looks like he's kept it in good shape, be on the lookout for "thunks" when driving it though. They can be a pain to work on. Turbo models had OEM adjustable shocks which are horrendously expensive. I suspect he replaced them with something common and aftermarket by now so maybe ask him what it is. Keep in mind these are not lightweight toss-around sports cars. They are a heavy GT designed in the early 80s and feel like it. Granted he did some work to wake it up a bit but it is not a modern sport car by any stretch.

After having put almost $7000 into the mechanics a car pulled out infront of me. Left front is a mess, but engine and tranny untouched. All the work was done by Jock Rhodes owner of Bill's Datsun. There is less than 5000 miles on the engine. Would like to get $4250 for the car. This engine is a working gem! $3750-4250 for a wrecked car.

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/cto/4767592665.html To add insult to injury, it's the 280. Content: There was an original post where he outlined all the restoration - he's basically refurbished or replaced everything. I'm guessing 63's aren't that desirable since they're an early year right before the displacement bump, but I could be wrong.

blk posted:To add insult to injury, it's the 280. Pretty much any Series 1 E-Type is super desirable and if that one has been restored, that price is suspiciously low. By my recollection, that should be a $50k-$60k car fully restored.

There's certainly precedent for BMW diesels in American cars. Why not a N57?

alternate.eago posted:SO much want here: So I went and looked at this today. There is rust on the rear quarter-panel by the back of the passenger side door. The front driversside fender is also rusty by the mudflap. Needs the valve cover gasket and the oilpan seal replaced--badly. Other than that, it ran really nice. I am not sure if I want to buy it. It would definitely have to much cheaper for me to buy it. I think I could talk him down a bunch, just have to decide if I want to......

Capitalizing every Noun is indicative of Old People,, as is,, using too many Commas in Weird Places!! Long run-on sentences with "..." as the only punctuation and no capitalization seems to be a disease of the young, on the other hand.
