Rip- another csx-vnt :(

[88CSX-T]

I just found this CSX-VNT in a local junkyard in Colorado yesterday. I'm took a picture of the vin but need to take another picture because of the glare. I'm going to see if it's in the registries, and if not, I'm going to register it as r.i.p..
It was dropped off two days ago and is/was complete except for the front seats, radiator/ intercooler and Shelby valve cover. While at the junkyard, the following were taken: fiberides, hubs, rear trunk emblem, dash/number, steering wheel, door panels, sill plates. A friend of mine is salvaging the rest of the Shelby parts, I will post them on here tomorrow.
I'm pretty sure that the parts he is selling are: rear trunk spoiler, front grille, front bumper, rear bumper, side ground effects, turbo boost gauge, turbo boost gauge surround plastic. If anyone else wants anything else, let me know.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you read my past ads, you'll see that I'm all about saving a shelby instead of snatching one up to make $$ on it by parting it out, but in this instance the car WILL BE CRUSHED. In the state of Colorado, once a junk car gets the paperwork processed to go to a junkyard, noone can buy the whole car. If they could, it would be sitting in my driveway right now.

It hurts to see a nice and complete VNT in the junkyard, but maybe the parts will help someone else with their vnt restoration.



one more note: I have a photo but can't figure out how to show it, if someone can help facilitate that, let me know.

Also, the front bumper condition is nice, and the back one was nice too until the junkyard workers damaged it with their tractor. All the parts of it are there, I'm pretty sure it can be fixed...

Use photobucket or similiar and link it.

I took parts off an even rarer VNT car from the yard.. in the end, you just grab the special stuff and let the mundane stuff get crushed/melted. Can't save em all.

Does make you wonder how little effort people put into finding out what their car is worth, though. There are a lot of ----tarded idiots who will say "buy my car or i'm scrapping it" but wont take the same money the scrappers give to buy the car in one piece, but i guess the people who take 2-300$ for a car they could have sold in 30 minutes for that price to an actual person, are just as bad.

[88CSX-T]

I agree, the going price for a typical junk car here in Colorado is around $300-500. I don't know what the owner of that vnt was thinking to sell a complete shelby to the junkyard for $300...

if the Shelby under hood engine # tag is there you should grab that too, plus you can get the car number from that very easily
i can post pics on here if you email me them shadowkitsune.l29e@gishpuppy.com

[88CSX-T]

Fox you've got mail..

By the way, where is the under hood engine tag? (I'm a csx-t guy, not a csx-vnt guy)..

[Fox]

the tag should be on the rad support to the left
that car looked good and complete, its too bad

[Directconnection]

I'd like the grill...

Look at the condition of the chin spoiler!

Someone should have googled this car before junking it... I would have loved to have this one.

Is this still available? I need that airdam! Looks like more parts are on it too!

Hell if the whole car is straight, i even have a whle shadow I'd trade them, LOL!

Let us know when you get the VIN if the dash plaque is gone... damn, I need one of those too!

[bfarroo]

If the rear seat is in good condition it would probably be worth grabbing for the shelby material.

[daytonaracer90x]

could you grab the turbo?

[cordes]

I can't believe you didn't snag the grill and front air dam when you took that pic. Wowza!

[88CSX-T]

We got the rear seat, it's a real shelby shelby shelby material seat,

I'm pretty sure the turbo was taken already but will look again,

I didn't take any parts because I'm a csx-t guy, sorry... My buddy has the parts and I'll post them for sale asap...

[88CSX-T]

Fyi buyers: I still didn't get the stuff to put for sale yet (maybe today or tomorrow), but I'm going to go down the list of buyers (on this and the other site) according to who asked first. If the first person doesn't want it for some reason, then I'll go to the second.

OR

If anyone's interested, I could sell them to the highest bidder. Any opinions?

[minigts]

lol The first thing I saw on that car was the chin spoiler. You should take off work to go get every unique part on that car, today.

[Daviticus]

Looks like I need to start coming up to Denver junkyards for the goods. Such a shame that car is there, the paint looks better than my 88k-mile Shelby Lancer.

[88CSX-T]

Well you probably can't see because of the crappy quality of my phone photo, but the top surfaces (hood, roof, trunk lid) do have hail damage. We get hail here that will literally knock you out!

By the way, no highest bidders, I'm going to offer the parts to whomever asked first, then go down the list...

[Badger]

put me in line for the chin spoiler, side skirts, rear bumper spoiler please

[turbojerk]

WooHoo! Keep junk'in them fella's! Soon I'll have the last one!

I know that no one here junked this car (I think?) but damn...

[88CSX-T]

I agree with turbojerk, with all the csx-t's that are getting junked and parted, mine will be one of one soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!
