I don't usually post links to ads because then the thread becomes a useless thread in 30 days or less when the link to the ad gets deleted (that's why I try to post the whole ad with photos), but here is the link:

Can you post the 4 photos?

Nice clean Lancer! It seems lancers are hard to come by, and a Shelby version much more so. I was a bit suprised to see it was a log intake car, I was expecting a T2.

I'd take it in a minute if it wasn't so far away...

Something looks fishy...

its not red (I know, they make paint every day)
its not T2 (I know, its 24 years old and could have been swapped)
its leather and 5-speed (I know, there were a *few* 5spd/leather SL's...)

Anyone near there able to go check it out? Or call to get the VIN and car #?

it looks like a stock t-1 lancer that someone put a shelby steering wheel in it.......... That is not a shelby lancer numbered car....

If I recall, they made a Shelby Lancer (numbered cars) and they also made Lancer Shelby's. But i'm fairly positive the Lancer Shelby's still had ground fx and the rear roof wing.

Correct, the LS's did have the GFX and come in white (among other colors) but were 88 and 89 T2's as well... actually a better powertrain, as they were true T2's with A555 vs. the T1 bottom end and A520 on the 87 SL

That's odd, a guy I know on here (86trbolancer) has a lancer shelby and his has the log manifold. Also the I don't believe the lancer shelby had that "Turbo" emblem on the upper right fender, someone can correct me if I am wrong.

What year? Was his a swap? I think one of the locals swapped a log into a Lancer Shelby parst car a couple years ago?

The one in the add is most likely not a LS or SL as shown in the pics unless a lot was changed from original

Yes, they made limit number of Lancer Shelby's in 88 and 89. Most came with a t-1 mitsu motor but there were a few hundred made with the 2.2 t-2 motors, and all had the GFX and the cool upper hatch spoiler. There was never a shelby lancer or lancer shelby made with the 85-87 log style t-1 motors.

there was however the 86 lancer pacifica that was white and did have the shelby gfx, rear hatch spolier and the log intake.

Also I personally dismantled a 1987 lancer es that had the shelby gfx and the upper hatch spoiler. That car was silver but no idea how long the gfx or spoiler had been on there when I purchased it.

none of the shelby cars had that fender badge right?
sounds like an 87 Pacifica with SL wheels and steering wheel
still badass to be a turbo 5 speed leather lancer id buy it

Whatever it is, if it's solid, it's a good deal, I think.

Don't forget the Lancer Shelbys were available with 2.2 T1 auto (88) and 2.5 T1 auto (89) as well as the 2.2 T2 / A555 5spd in 88 & 89.

The 87 Shelby Lancer was 2.2 T2 (well, the bottom end was still T1 like the rest of the 86-87 #'d cars) whether it was auto or 5spd.

I spoke to guy selling the car and asked for some underbody shots. He said he would text them to me and all he sent was the CL pics. BTW he said it had 190K

IIRC it was an 87, and yes it was the stock motor with the log setup. It is a pacifica so maybe that explains it.
