Would anyone have any interest in a free non-running GLHS in Elkton, MD?
Car is an 87 GLHS. Drivetrain is out, front suspension is not on the car. Would need either a front suspension bolted up to tow dolly it, or dragged onto a flatbed.
Car was from Illinois so the rear hatch is pretty much gone, some rust in the quarters, floorpans, door bottoms. Car has been underwater, so some interior might be shot, but seat cloth actually looks pretty decent. The interior was in VERY nice shape before the flood. Most of the interior was disassembled and allowed to dry after the flood.
Car has all original body parts, including the lower nose. Does have a clean NJ title would be signed over. Car was titled as an 87 Shelby
Car currently has 2 pizza wheels on the rear. I have the matching 2 other pizza wheels I would consider including, or might have other wheels I could put on the car if new owner didn't car about the wheels.
Now price was listed as free* because if someone was able to pick up the car from it's current location, they could have the shell and the parts listed above for free.
I was planning to keep the car and eventually restore it, however code enforcement in that area is requiring the vehicles to be moved. I am researching any potentual methods for me to move the car to my current location, but if that is not possible I'd rather see the car go to a enthusiast than be scrapped.
If someone took the car as is I would then be willing to make a VERY reasonable deal on any/all the other parts I have from/for the car: (all the below parts were NOT in the car when it was flooded so they are all in good/original shape) I might even consider throwing some of them in to encourage somebody to take the car.
original Shelby dash plaque car is number 725.
original engine block and transmission.
(Transmission has the stiffening plate that goes under 5th gear, as well as the external chromoly case girdle)
Mopar Performance windage tray oil pan
original Shelby valve cover had a corner cracked off, was welded and re powdercoated crinkle black.
Original Koni's (probably need rebuilt)
MP L-body springs (might have original springs as well..)
Original Centurian II wheels
Original 2-piece intake manifold and fuel rail
new replacement original style leather Momo shift knob
Shelby stage 2 computer, should have the original Shelby computer somewhere.
Also have alot of original Shelby literature I might be willing to part with some of.
4 original Optional Shelby floormats. These are in ~decent condition for being from 1987. GLHS's did not come with the floormats. They were purchase by the original owner from Shelby Performance.
probably have more random parts as well. I have a G head I had home-ported for the car. Found out after porting it needs 1 exhaust stud hole repaired. Also have a ported SOHC exhaust manifold which has been coated in POR 15's high temp silver. I believe I also have the original Turbo around somewhere.
All exchanges of the above parts would have to take place at a later arranged time. Purpose of giving the car away would be to avoid have to take time off and drive fly down to that area. My father will be moving a different vehicle from that location in the near future, so he could possibly meet up with the person picking up the car. He probably would not know where all of the above parts are currently, so again I would arrange to meet up with the new owner to exchange any other parts.
Anyway email (pie*tasting@hot*mail.com) (remove the stars first) or PM me if interested. I may update this thread as I find out more information.
Thanks,
Dave Robinson
