how do you have 5 of them by the time your 23? You ball them up in the ditch or something?
I've got 4 but I am 30...always loved these cars!
well.. I got a 89 shelby z for my 16th bday from my father we picked up for 800. Vary Rough shape. drove it around till i killed it about a year later. Bought a 86 Laser Xt. Which i never drove. Ended up fixing and giving to my father. Than i bought a 91 daytona cs drove that for about a year than wrecked it. Than i bought an 87 pacifica that i drove for years. and put loads of money into and finally blew the engine like 3 years later when my alky quit workin in the middle of a run. Than i had a good job so i bought me an 05 dodge magnum rt. Which i just got rid off. And i just picked up a 89 sundance 2.5 turbo 2. And than just picked up this 87 last night.. so actual owned 6 tds all together only wrecking one. lol
nice find. post pics if you can, i would like to see it. im on my second and i am turning 17 in 8 days. 89 shelby daytona daily and a 92 iroc r/t project.
time to take it all apart! yay
1988 Lancer Shelby 2.2TII 1989 Shadow ES 2.5TI 1992 Lebaron Sedan 3.0Auto 1993 Acclaim 2.5TI-A520 Hoard parts now!
Damn you I was going to buy that and part it for my rampage lol.. You got it in Deltona right?
yeap deltona. Part it. Its too nice to part out. Its all there and runs.
Nice find
Nice. I agree. Take it apart. Looks like a good project.
Oh yeah we need to try and quit parting the ones that are in one piece. Looks like a winner to me.
yeah man im just tryin to figure where to start. Im still getting my turbo sundance back together. that will be done in the next couple days. Than im on to this one. Im not gonna do to much to it. Exhaust, Tune Up, Some Fresh Fluids and just drive it. It actual runs vary well suprisly even though guy said it was sitting for more than 2 years.
nice find!
i would have one right now too but 89 Z with t tops
rebuilt motor and trans with 300 miles on it but has been sitting for 5 years since it was done
there are no floors and the guy still wants 1k for it
hes had it for probably 10 years
I been driving my new car around all day. Seems to run good. Needs some bushings and struts in such but runs good overall. Only getting 6 lbs with the waste gate unplugged though
So today i added some 2005 Dodge magnum rt Leather seats in my daytona(Ill post pics soon). Fully functional and everything except the heated seats. havent tried to hook them up yet. Changed all the vacuum lines from original old ones to new less messy ones. Changed out the tape player. for another newer style chrysler one i had laying around. Tryin to get a good dash cluster at the moment. I got 3, 1 i have not tried yet. One where everything works but the RPM gauge and another with everything cept the speedometer. And thats pretty much it. project started.
What do ppl think about the stock airbox? Throw it out for hard piping. or keep it till adding a Front Mount Intercooler?
pics of the new seats in the car..
And The rust through the spare tire well... ahhhh...
rust in the spare tire well? you dont say...
can we see a show of hands, how many of us still can call that gaping hole a 'spare tire well'?
anybody?
Lol.
Car looks good.. nice find, going to be a good project. I like the seats in there.
appreciate.. and yeap. Imma get the car running and looking the way it is suppose to before i do any performance mods. besides the exhaust cause i have a feeling that the stock cat is prolly clogged after all those years.
