If I still lived in Ohio, this car would already be in my driveway. But since I'm way out west, somebody else is going to love this deal. A guy named David Beamish sent me an email about his '89 Daytona Shelby:
Anyway, the guy's wife wants it to go. He found out the local wrecking yards will only give him $25 if they come haul it off for him, so he decided he'd rather give it to the first person that shows up with a trailer. Beg/borrow/steal one if you have to--don't miss this deal!I am the original owner. I bought it as my first car off the lot with 18 km. It is a red Daytona Shelby - 1989 model year, 2.2l Intercooled Turbo, 16" rims, 5-speed Getrag Transmission. Grey trim on the wing and along the bottom doors and rocker / fenders.
Now it has 185,000 km. It was in working order until December 2004. It needed work to pass it's upcoming emissions test. It currently needs work on the following components:
Brake lines have rusted.
Turbo works but loses a bit of oil through a seal.
Starting to rust around / under the fender walls.
Front tire has a slow leak.
Most of the remaining parts are in good condition. Tires have good tread. It would make an excellent project / parts car.
I live near Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
