    F/S - 1991 Dodge Shadow "Shelby CSX" convertible

    Selling or Wanted Price: 9,500 OBO

    Description:

    I am selling my 1991 Dodge Shadow “Shelby CSX” convertible to make room for another recent purchase. I am moving this car due to space limitations, there is no problem with the car.

    For the record, the last production vehicles produced by Shelby for Dodge were the 1989 Shelby CSX and Dakota. Dodge Shadow convertibles were made from 1991-1993. So this is obviously not a real Shelby, and I am not presenting it as such.

    This is really a tribute car, or a concept of what a CSX convertible might have looked like if the relationship had continued into 1991.

    This car was made from a 1991 Shadow that had over 100,000 miles. It was stripped to the shell, and rebuilt using NOS, or like-new components. The mileage (16,7xx) shown is the true mileage from the conversion. That is the true mileage for the drivetrain, suspension, etc.
    The car is well maintained, clean, and drives like new. The major flaw is the headliner (the 6” strip) needs to be replaced. The glue dried, and the fabric was removed when it started sagging.

    The highlights of the car include:

    • 2.5 L inline four, turbo and intercooled
    • Rear disc brake conversion
    • Koni adjustable shocks with performance springs at all four corners
    • Cross drilled rotors with powerdoated calipers, and SS brake lines.
    • Turbos unleashed Garrett turbo
    • A555 close ratio 5 speed transmission
    • 1989 Sheby CSX fabric on doors, seats
    • Recaro front buckets
    • Custom Shelby dash plaque
    • Carroll Shelby autographed tachometer
    • Shelby Turbo boost gauge
    • 1989 Shelby CSX ground effects, including front air dam, rear fascia, side skirts with door panels, and grill
    • Fiberride Shelby wheels from an ’89 CSX (Fiberglass composite)
    • Powdercoated gas tank

    There is more that I probably cannot think of. The pictures will tell more than I can say about the condition of the car. It is garage kept, babied, and wins or places in every car show I have taken it to. Most recently was awarded a Gold award at the 2014 Florida Mopar Nationals (March), and placed 3rd in the front drive class at the 2013 Don Garlits Mopar Show (Oct ’13). This is a very fun car to drive, show, and just look at. Looking for a good home for it!

    Been awhile since I've seen that car in person, but at the time (SDAC 14?) it was the best restoration I had seen on a TM up to that point. GLWS to a fellow Challenger owner.

    I want it gone.
    You want it in your garage.
    Resisting the urge to buy it is like holding in a poop. You can do it for a little bit, but in the long run, it's not good.
    Nothing but the best used in the build. You won't be disappointed.

    $8,000 and this is yours. You won't fince a nicer or more unique Shelby tribute
    out there.

    Just seeing the ad and car for the first time.
    That is an excellent example of how a car should be. Nice work.

    He already sold it. I think it was worth way more, just didn't have the money to buy that one, well to keep and preserve.

    I already sold it. Surprised the buyer is looking to unload it so quickly. I had it for years and loved it. Oh well. I am sure he started the bidding high anticipating it would come down, but it in the neighborhood of fair in my opinion. Not in the opinion of the masses though.

    Re: F/S - 1991 Dodge Shadow "Shelby CSX" convertible

    For what it is worth, I think your initial asking price was fair, extremely fair, low even. My problem, I would have wanted to drive that car a LOT, but it's SOOOO nice I would have felt a little guilt. It's a double-edged sword, a car like that. In one way, it should be displayed in the way that it is treated like a spotless one of a kind machine. On the other hand, it should be enjoyed to the fullest. Top down on nice days, hood up at every possible car show, mirrors everywhere to show the extreme attention to detail. Every day I would be tempted to drive in town and show it off at every corner, eventually taking away from the pristine condition.

    Craigslist ad is now $29,500. That's impressive appreciation.

    I saw this car on Detroit craigslist Monday advertised for $11,500 but, ad was deleted Tuesday or Wednesday. Hmmm.
