    1989 Daytona Shelby T-Top NOW WITH PICS

    Okay I never thought I'd be making this post but I am seriously entertaining the Idea of selling my car, It's an 89 2.2 common block car that in my opinion will be a bad --- car when complete.
    The car is daytona blue with good paint and about 100K miles, And less than 15K on the block, and ZERO miles on the top end. There is a small dent on the left lower rear 1/4 panel but is not that bad really.
    I bought this car from a member here Mo'parts he built the block and is very strong. I've done a ton of things to the top end and list them below. I have not drove the car in 2 years and think because of this it is easy for me to want to sell it.
    I am asking $4800.00 for it and it needs very little to run. Fuel rail issues which i plan to resolve before the sale. IT will also need to have the intercooler and plumming ran I have both but no time or money to do so.
    Listed below are the things that I have do to it in the 3 years I've owned it.

    Mike asked me to chime in as his computer is down, and he forgot his camera when using his in-laws computer.

    To clear up/add a few things, the list is as follows:

    stock bore wiseco's w/stock .901 wrist pin. oil clearances were .002 and ring gaps were .020 top .019 bottom

    numbers matching block

    t2 rods have arp wavelock bolts

    reman trans from fwd, installed same time as the shortblock, and has chromoly plate.

    exaust is a FM full stainless steel exaust w/ cat/muffler and he should have the test pipe.

    there a few picts from when i had it here:

    Wow, that car is beautiful!!!!! It is just like mine but, in nicer shape. The funny thing is that I am doing all that engine stuff to mine and I paid 3000 for it. I think that this daytona is a good deal. Im envious but, those pics give me a little more nudge to get my project going. Matt
