For some reason I never put this up here. It's a damned unfortunate thing seeing as I busted my ass to get the car, but I have to sell it. I'll no joke give $500 cold cash to anyone who can get this car sold. HAND-TO-GOD.

Here's the skinny. I picked the car up from UBG in august I beleive. Barely got to enjoy her for a month and suddenly the trans starts to slip. Sucks, but oh well...story of my life. Then to add insult to injury I get laid off in september, so funds are tight, can't keep the car. I've put a TON of new stuff in it since I got it from UBG, it's damn near a frame-off at this point. I dumped almost $2k into it before running out of money. New cam sensor, crank sensor, tensioner, powermaster setup(almost $1k by itself), rebuilt passenger caliper, new PS lines, and a bunch of other odds and ends. You guys know the car, it's SICK!

87 Turbo T hardtop, 82k original miles, Maroon w/redone Maroon interior, rare digital cluster, power windows, power locks, ac, cruise, nothing gutted, the car's INSANE!!! It's never seen the track or a dyno for that matter but comparing it to my old LS6 powered TA that had full bolt-ons and a tune...this car's faster.

The Bad:
-car needs a trans, it's slipping as of now. I changed the fluid a while back and it helped a little, but hasn't cured the problem. My GN guru buddy said the trans looks like it has some aftermarket parts in it but I have no idea what he said they were besides the valve body.
-has 1 rust spot when you open the driver's door at the bottom of the a-pillar, other then that the entire car is SOLID.
-1 spot where the paint started to come off on the corner of the hood

It's obvious I'm going to take a MASSIVE hit on the car, but I dropped as low as I'll go without removing parts. I'm looking for $11k FIRM, those of you who know these cars know this is a STEAL! My e-mail is venomsvtcobra@aol.com, my cell is 848-250-3006.

So again, negatives: Trans slips. I'm sure it'll last quite a while like this but as I said I have ZERO money right now. Passenger door rubs the fender a bit, just needs the fender re-aligned, 6"x3" spot of paint missing on hood, and blower motor is shot. Not terrible things really, most are dirt cheap to fix. I'm just trying to be upfront about it.

Will include both an aftermarket front mount intercooler, and set of stainless headers, both BRAND NEW, never on a car. No, I won't sell them seperate. If I don't sell the car then they'll get installed on it.

Paint is nice, body is straight, body & frame are solid.
