Description:
I am selling my 1991 Dodge Shadow “Shelby CSX” convertible to make room for another recent purchase. I am moving this car due to space limitations, there is no problem with the car.
For the record, the last production vehicles produced by Shelby for Dodge were the 1989 Shelby CSX and Dakota. Dodge Shadow convertibles were made from 1991-1993. So this is obviously not a real Shelby, and I am not presenting it as such.
This is really a tribute car, or a concept of what a CSX convertible might have looked like if the relationship had continued into 1991.
This car was made from a 1991 Shadow that had over 100,000 miles. It was stripped to the shell, and rebuilt using NOS, or like-new components. The mileage (16,7xx) shown is the true mileage from the conversion. That is the true mileage for the drivetrain, suspension, etc.
The car is well maintained, clean, and drives like new. The major flaw is the headliner (the 6” strip) needs to be replaced. The glue dried, and the fabric was removed when it started sagging.
The highlights of the car include:
2.5 L inline four, turbo and intercooled
Rear disc brake conversion
Koni adjustable shocks with performance springs at all four corners
Cross drilled rotors with powerdoated calipers, and SS brake lines.
Turbos unleashed Garrett turbo
A555 close ratio 5 speed transmission
1989 Sheby CSX fabric on doors, seats
Recaro front buckets
Custom Shelby dash plaque
Carroll Shelby autographed tachometer
Shelby Turbo boost gauge
1989 Shelby CSX ground effects, including front air dam, rear fascia, side skirts with door panels, and grill
Fiberride Shelby wheels from an ’89 CSX (Fiberglass composite)
Powdercoated gas tank
4975049751497524975349754
There is more that I probably cannot think of. The pictures will tell more than I can say about the condition of the car. It is garage kept, babied, and wins or places in every car show I have taken it to. Most recently was awarded a Gold award at the 2014 Florida Mopar Nationals (March), and placed 3rd in the front drive class at the 2013 Don Garlits Mopar Show (Oct ’13). This is a very fun car to drive, show, and just look at. Looking for a good home for it!
