I've had the car since late February of this year. I bought it from up in VA. It's in very good condition. I have a whole webpage for it. Please look there for pics and description. I've added a bunch of items and done some good maintenance on it. It does run strong but right now there is a boost problem I cannot figure out. It boosts to +15 psi and detonates. It's only done it a few times but I've tried everything under the sun to get the hoses correct according to the vac. diagram, including even replacing 02 sensor with oem, etc. Nothing has helped. It also has a bad surge getting into and sustaining throughout boost. No idea what's causing it. I have no one in my area that knows anything regarding these cars to help worth a damn. I need a reliable daily driver and I'm not getting it from this car. Well, so far it has technically been reliable but not so much fun. I've gone wot succesfully only a few times during the first few weeks I had the car. The fuel pump was changed a couple days ago to a 190. I've done a bunch of other mods, maintenance, etc. I'd only be interested in a trade for a reliable non-td dd type vehicle or rwd vehicle. If you have anything please let me know. Thanks and please post any questions or pm/email me.

Man, I wanted that car really bad when it was posted for sale before.

Well you won't find a nicer one left so I suggest you get the emails flyin'. I should know because I sold it to him. :)

That was before the tint job, goofy steering wheel, etc...

It's ok though, I picked up a near mint '86 in Blue/Silver from CT not long after.

That can be changed. ;) Remember, it is a FACTORY SILVER Shelby Charger. I have to be conservative with my cash right now with the wife's grad school and the new house. If not for that, I'd be negotiating on this car. :nod:
