    86 GLHT project in California

    I'm not sure I want to do this yet, but I've had very little time to work on this car, and I feel it would be better to get it in someone's hands who will not only appreciate it, but have the time to work on it.

    I'm basically seeing if there's even anyone who's willing to look into it, I'm located on the central coast. The car is quite nice, and has most of the parts required to be a fast car (built commonblock bottom end, 555/520 parts + obx, etc). You just have to assemble it

    Let me know if there's interest, I'm working on getting pictures, and more details. Thanks everyone.

    If you can wait, I'll come by and look at it. Gotta grab that IC anyway. Problem is, I can't do it this week and then I'm out of state through the 31st, so maybe the weekend of Sept 5? If you're parting, then LMK as I can pick up that trans - no freight/boxing issues.

    Feel free to ask questions, for more details, more pictures, etc.

    Sorry for the wait, I've been quite busy. I'm not sure if I made this clear in the first post, but this car is not in running condition, the drivetrain has been pulled for a complete teardown/upgrade/rebuild. You basically will need to get a head, and put it all together, maybe a new exhaust, since a 2.5 is probably pretty small for this combo.

    The chassis is in very good condition, and I have a lot of brand new parts to go along with it. I would prefer to sell it as a set, but if I can't sell it, I may think about parting it out.

    As far as parts go, it's got virtually all of the stock parts, (but not the engine bottom end), as well as a ton of new and upgraded parts.

    Chassis
    SLH stage 1 (calipers, minivan brackets, master cylinder) - all new
    Sub frame welded
    Caravan a-arms
    Poly bushings - new
    New poly transmission mount -new
    Mopar performance engine mounts -new

    Engine
    common block - rebuilt bottom end with zero miles (chrysler blue!)
    Wiseco pistons
    fwdperformance t2 rods
    cast crank
    ARP hardware
    super 60 turbo (brand new from turbosunleashed)
    Procharger intercooler
    Turbo 2 intake, injectors
    New freeze lugs (not installed yet)
    No head...I lost it, it's a long story. I do have a bathtub head that will go with everything, but I can't vouch for it.
    Oil pump and pickup (not installed) - New

    Interior
    Front seats are torn
    Back seat is very nice, no tears or stains
    Carpet is nice, one hole maybe?
    The panels are nice
    Extra seat rails from 2 door L-body, pretty rusted, the stock rails are perfectly fine.
    Headliner is gone, only the cardboard liner is left

    Body
    Could use a paint job, but not much rust
    No major damage to speak of, a dent on the hatch, dings here and there

    Transmission
    OBX (along with upgraded washers) - New
    555/520 parts
    Upgraded washers - New
    Moly plate - New
    Relentless racing unequal shafts - New
    Rebuild kit with seals and bearings -New
    T2/T3 clutch - New
    P-body shift cables - new
    P-body shifter
    The transmission isn't completely assembled,

    Exhaust
    2.5 catback -New
    3 inch cat - New
    2.5 inch straight through muffler - New
    Modified stock swingvalve - converted to 3" stainless steel

    I know that I've missed items. I've got assorted axles, ECUs, all the original top end parts (minus the head), the 525...

    As for price, I'm not settled yet. I can't let it go for 1000 or something silly like that, I have too much in it to let it go for that. Make some offers, or give me some time to think of an asking price.
