FS: 85 Hardtop Red 5Spd

Matchbx · 06-09-2009, 07:30 PM

I would prefer to do this locally.

I hate to put it up on the market, but I just don't have the space anymore for this thing. I plan to get another one later down the road. But for now, I need to sell this one.

It has aftermarket 14" rims with decent tires plus the full set of toyota triangles with choppy winter tires. I have Tokico HP shocks brand new in the box for all 4 corners. It also has 88 taillights and an 87 steering wheel. It didn't have a spoiler on it but I did get a trunk with a spoiler on it that I installed (factory 86 spoiler). I still have the original wingless trunklid for it that I will throw in with it.

If you saw the pics from the car show in St. Cloud or were there you know what it looks like. It does have some rust on the rear quarters but the entire underbody is fully intact with no rust. I was very surprised when I pulled the carpeting out last year to find no rust in the floorboards. I can post some pics up later or email them if you want.

My price is $1750 or bo.

If it doesn't sell within a few weeks here, I'm going to offer it up on Craigslist and the FS section on here. I just wanted the local guys to get a chance first.

More pictures from the build up.

I'll try to get some pictures of it on thursday if it's not raining with how it sits right now.

This is sad to hear Matchbx, you seemed to enjoy working on this car quite a bit when I talked to you at the car show. I also wish I could have seen it in a race.

I love working on it. It's just that life has dictated that I need my priorities in different areas right now. Not a big deal. I will have another one someday soon.
