Fs: 89 CSX-VNT #91

[quantum]

I'm putting my 89 CSX-VNT up for sale. Our first is due in early August and with gas and food prices what they are we could use the money more than the fun car (I cannot believe the price of baby stuff. Somewhere at Graco a rich man is laughing manically while sipping brandy and throwing money on a fire.) That said; though I am looking to sell the car; I'm not in a pinch to do it. The reason I'm saying that is because though I am willing to move a bit on the price I'm not going to give it away; so if you low ball don't be surprised not to get a reply.

I'm also offering an option to buy all the performance parts I have bought that were going to go into the car. I will not sell the parts separate unless the car is sold (the reason for that is if the car doesn't sell I'll eventually use them) . So with out further ado.

The car is 89 CSX-VNT #91, it has just over 90k on it, Recaro car, mostly stock (has a 2.5" exhaust all the way down, sunroof, custom programed ECU, cone filter intake, and bov installed. original intake system and ECU comes with it) and is in very nice shape over all. The biggest visual issue IMHO is the fact that the headliner is gone, it's an easy replacement though. There is the usual P-body inside trunk rust and some paint nicks from age, but there is no underside rust (except the trunk). The engine is in nice shape; I did a compression test not long ago and it was good to go (140's across the board). It does have a very slow leak from the water pump (so slow it doesn't drip, just evaporates) so a new pump comes with the car, also the rear bobble strut squeaks a bit at cold idle, but goes away after a bit. The Fiberides are in awesome shape and all the Shebly equipment is present and looking good (the front air damn has the most paint chips and could use a respray, but it isn't cracked). Also included is a brand new rear medallion to replace the chipped one, literature about the car, the manuals, the window sticker, and a few OEM stickers and other small parts. Pics are below (FM sickers on the side windows are now gone). The car is located near Harrisburg, PA; I'm asking $8,000.

wonderful car, good luck with the sale! I sure hope this isnt your only TD.

[DC Turismo]

That sucks you just bought it a couple weeks after I bought mine last June! Best of luck to you and your family though! It's a sharp car that's for sure!

[ScottD]

I've seen this car in person, it's very nice! Sorry to see you're selling it.

[glhs727]

bump for a sweet car!

[quantum]

Yeah, I can't say I'm happy about selling it or won't be disappointed if it doesn't sell. But money is more useful than toys; so if the price is right it will go.

That said I would be willing to trade it for a good condition TD (rolling chase is fine if in great shape) and some money. That way I could stay in the hobby and still pay for some baby stuff.

[WLKivett]

I understand your baby pain. I have two in daycare right now and daycare is by far my bigest expence.

Bump for a sweet ride,
Best Regards,

Has this car been hit on the passenger side? I noticed in the pics that the inside of the door lip there is yellow paint like the door used to be yellow.Also the front fog lights are missing...

They are not missing; they had blackout plastic on them, I took them off. Not sure about the yellow though.


I should also say that I have a deal worked out with another board member for it. I'll post up after it's sold or if the deal falls through (God forbid).

Do you mean front turn signal lenses rather than foglights? As 89 CSXs did not come equipped with foglights.

And as for the yellow, it appears that one of the two things are possible there. Either A) these P-body doors seem to rub on the b-pillar once the hinges are worn and broken in, at least that is also how my Sundance is, just not as much as what these pics. show. B) Perhaps that side of the car was repainted (notorious 80s Chrysler paint peel/fade was fixed) in which case the painter used a yellowish primer as a base? C) Maybe it was a combination of both of these two. In either case, I don't see it as being any big deal for this car since it's so nice!

Do let us know who it goes to. :)
