FS: 86 Shelby Charger, Indianapolis

[glhturbo22]

The time has come for me to part with my Shelby Charger. It was supposed to be a father-son project, but my dad is now disabled and we have lost interest. The details are as follows:

-1986 Shelby Charger
-118k miles
-Garnett Red, silver stripes
-Factory no a/c

The car ran strong, despite having a hacked up wiring harness. I drove the car for a couple weeks before a vac. line to the FPR came off and I proceeded to melt a piston. Other than that, the car is fine. The body is really straight. There are two small dents which you can see in the pictures. They were there when I got the car, so their origin is unknown. The car is rust free, except for a small rust spot under the carpet near the pedals. As you can see though, the paint is shot. The interior is untouched since I got the car and is in good shape except for the missing headliner. The board is still in there, but there is no fabric on it. Along with the car goes an 86 T1 engine out of a New Yorker. The donor car had 77k miles on it when a tree fell on it during a storm. The engine has a rebuilt head and a rebuilt garret turbo. It also has an automatic trans and axles that you can do whatever you want with. Since the harness was hacked up, I picked up another one from another 86 Charger that a friend had. It also comes with the car. This would be a great candidate for a T2 swap, or to restore. I paid $1400 for the car about 2 years ago, and drove it for about 2 weeks before the engine incident. I'm asking $1200, including the extra engine, trans, and wiring harness. If you have any questions feel free to post them here, or email me at glhturbo22@sbcglobal.net

Deleted the duplicate post for you. Looks like a solid car!

[glhturbo22]

Thanks. It really is a good car, and would make a great project. I just no longer have the time or interest to devote to it. Also, here are a couple of pics of the extra engine. The guy cut all the wires and cables when he took it out, so unfortunately most of that stuff is no good.

Looks like a car with potential.

If I had the time to fix it, a place to fix it, and the money to fix it, along with a cost effective way to haul it back to my place near Pittsburgh, PA, I'd get it.

But I don't, unfortunately.:(

But the Powerball drawing is tonight, so there's still a 1 in 146,107,000 chance!:thumb:

Damn where were you two years ago. I would of bought that car.

[glhturbo22]

i'm assuming the little fellow in your signature is the reason you're no longer in the market?

[Tim]

At the current time I have no chance (that I know of) of getting the money to buy this car, but if I did, how hard would it be to add A/C to it? A huge wiring harness and under dash assembly change? As far as I know, isn't the only needed wiring a switch to kick on the A/C compressor clutch?

I'd like to have a car like this, and I'd love to have A/C in the same car.

[glhturbo22]

i have no idea. i removed the a/c from my old horizon, but i just got rid of the under hood stuff. you have to remember all of the lines for the condenser, the condenser core, etc. have to be installed too.

What's the story with the red daytona ES? Is it an N/A car?

[glhturbo22]

yes, the red daytona is an automatic N/A car. it's sold though. it's getting a little rusty, has been wrecked, and had a blown head gasket

[boostjunkie_07]

hey im lookin for a car exactly like this i love the look of them and want to do a tII swap into one cause they are light like a neon and not very many people have them around here (brainerd minnesota) is 1200 the least you could take for it cause it would caust me some money to get there and haul the car back

[glhturbo22]

i am willing to negotiate on the price, especially if you are serious.
