Swordfish posted:No jpg, as im posting from my iPad, but this may be actual gold. Here you go. Up for sale is a 1987 Mercedes Benz 190e 16v Cosworth edition. This car was built by mercedes along with the help and vision of Cosworth himself in order to compete with the E30 M3. The 2.3l 16v 4cyl makes 200 hp and is super rev happy. Also these cars came with a cosworth designed body kit and a recaro designed interior. This car would be amazing with a little work put into it. The previous owner (a friend of mine disassembled the mechanical fuel injection in anticipation of installing Megasquirt but never completed it. All the parts are in the car, they just need to be hooked back up. The car ran flawlessly before the disassembly. The interior is in very good condition and is all there with the exception of the three gauge cluster, the speedometer and the shift knob. The only other thing missing from the car is the rear differential. The transmission is the coveted dog leg racing unit and shifts like butter. The exterior is all there but needs to be painted. There are two areas that need to be addressed for rust issues: one is on the lip of the trunk area and the other is on the bottom side of the passenger door. I have many more pictures that I will happily send out upon request. My friend also installed an H&R Cup Kit suspension that has less than 2 miles on it now. This would make an awesome car with little money added and just some time put in. I am asking 1500 or best offer and am located in Corpus Christi, TX. I will also entertain partial trades for off-shore/ surf fishing equipment. You can reach me @ with any questions or offers.

Often, here's the last one regarding a $4200 Ninja 250 with 5k miles and a kid rider- ME: They cost under $4000 brand new. Are you a loving idiot or hoping to find someone that is? richard tran to me Sep 21 (5 days ago) MSRP is at $4000, you're looking at driving out of a dealer store around $4700. For the low mileage, great condition, and modifications its not too bad. But yeah, i just put it a little on the high side so people would bargain a little and think they're gonna get a great deal.. but i'm looking to sell around $3,800. Its really rude to curse out someone you don't even know. But all is forgiven as Christ forgave us!  have a blessed day Tyler.I just let that one be..

Nothing on that truck that can't be repaired with a coathanger, duct tape and a flathead screwdriver. It reminds me of our truck when I was a kid, except ours had a slant 6. And was a Fargo.

World Pac has everything, and if they don't maybe RockAuto or a model specific place can. I have so little issue with getting stuff for my Daihatsus that people don't believe me at all when I say I can get an axle in the same time as for an 89 Accord.

You'd seriously consider a commuting with a nearly middle of the last century Chrysler V8 drivetrain? Now if you could find a Feather Duster that'd rock your commute.

My 87 with a carbed 318 gets 6 pulling 3000lbs of landscaping equipment. Not that its the same engine but being the same size its probably similar in fuel mileage. That one probably gets 9-10.

extreme_accordion posted:Is the RADL signal needed? No title TT RX7 & a 240 Z for 4900. Nope, no signal needed. It's always interesting to see people swap rotaries into non rotary vehicles. My dream is to see a NA 12A powered classic Camaro, nicknamed "Abomination" or "NO WHY DID YOU DO THAT???" After staring at it for 20 minutes, and maybe trying to drive it, I would loudly demand that the owner undo what he has done. I have elaborate fantasies.

I'd part out the RX7 as much as a I could and then build up the Z into something else.

Mine was pretty much the same but an air cooled flat four in the trunk of a '69 SS/RS powering the front wheels via torque tube.
