I have just opened a new shop and possibly looking to sell my tbird to raise some funding. A little history on the car... my grandmother purchased this car brand new in 86. it is an elan that had a 3.8 and c5 trans. It is a motorsport crate 302 with aluminum motorsport heads, e-cam, gt40 intake, 24lb injectors, c&l 73 mass air, cold air kit, a9L ecm. It has a fresh world class T-5 and newer Ram clutch, adjustable cable, alum quadrant, firewall adjuster, pro 5.0 shifter. Rear is a disc 3.55 8.8 from a turbo coupe. Chassis has Mustang front lower control arms, brand new TC rack, tie rods, lines, TC sway bar and bushings, motorsport springs, KYB struts. Rear has welded torque boxes, tubular upper and lower control arms, motorsport springs, kyb shocks. Car has Brand new Rotors, calipers, lines, pads at all 4 corners. The body of the car only has 86K on it and drivetrain has about 25-30k on it, trans has 2500. Wheels are cobra R replicas 17x9 and has brand new tires, 245/45/17 front and 275/40/17 rear. I have many extra parts including a fiberglass cowl hood, beautiful fenders with out the corner lamps, extra grilles, TC tail lights, misc. Exhaust is BBk full length headers, flowmaster 2 chamber lers/no tails. Body originally in great shape with only a few small surface spots. Only thing the car needs is complete paint. I painted engine compartment before motor went in. It is 03 Ford Sonic Blue. Really hate to sell, but want to invest in my new business. I do not need to sell this car and will not give it away. I drove this car all summer and it drives awesome. Also has 3 core radiator and electric fan. I did this car right even down to an 86 elan 5.0 engine harness converted to mass air. It is not hacked and spliced. I will add, I also have the rare 3 piece wing for the car also that wraps around the quarters. Please only contact me if serious. I am in Loves Park, IL just outside of Rockford, IL. Car is inside at my shop, so can be looked at. My cell number is 815-988- one nine zero five. Thank you Brad. I am asking $5000. I dont get on here much anymore due to time so my cell is the best way to reach me.
more pics, can take more just let me know
when you put in a crate engine, is it an HO engine? like from a mustang?
It's the Motorsport x303 crate motor from about 8 years ago. Aluminum x303 heads, e cam, yes it is a roller production block. Ford rates it at 360 hp
I'm sorry it's a x302, 340 hp
Just came across a deal on some equipment. This weekend I will sell it for $4000. I hate to sell it for that but I have to do what I need too. I am open to some partial trades, snow mobile, car.ect.
I am also entertaining selling the drivetrain, let me know if interested in it
How much do you think you’d let the rear end go for?
If I sell the drivetrain, car is going as a roller. Not selling just the rear end
If you still have it around march, PM me. I'll be interested then.
At this point car is staying together. Will still entertain selling the running and driving car. Can also have the car painted, depending on your budget. This of course, would be on top of the purchase price. I have a friend that owns a restoration shop and does beautiful paint and body.
