Untamed 03-06-2007 08:50 AM

Yeah I have an 88TA, runs and drives.

Rebuilt 305 TBI, put all of 3 miles on it so still needs to be broken in.
New starter
New battery
New headliner
All lights work, including fog lights and third brake light
Floor pans good
Exhaust pipes good
Some vacuum hoses replaced, none cracked or dry
New air filter, new PVC filter
New battery cables
All locks work, including trunk storage compartment
All 4 TA wheels in good shape, wheel lock included
T-tops dont leak
Power windows work, though slowly


Minor surface rust
AC needs recharged
Needs new tires - some tread left
Radio needs to be hooked up
... basically the little things need to be hooked back up after rebuilding the engine and swapping out the interior from gray to black.

I can provide pics of exterior and interior.

EDIT: Clean title. The inspection sticker has lapsed, however all smog / exhaust stuff is on the car

EDIT 2: The engine temp sending unit is not hooked into the block, so the temp gauge on the dash doesn't show the engine temp. I have the sending unit and the wire on the harness is there, I just didn't install it before dropping the rebuilt block back in.

sounds interesting, let me think about it.

color?

Untamed 03-06-2007 12:15 PM

Well the current color is Silver Blue Metallic - the typical lighter blue with silver ground FX. The aerowing spoiler is red because I replaced the original wing which had rotted inside. The interior is all black. The intent was to go the black and gold route with the car at some point.

EDIT: Click my cardomain link below to get some pics of the car before I began work on it.

Untamed 03-06-2007 12:18 PM

Do you have any pictures / description of the 80 TTA?

Rafterman 03-06-2007 01:59 PM

You had a previous thread where you went back and forth with the idea.

If you still aren't sure... don't. Hang onto the car. It's a special vehicle, despite the 350 in it.

What were your motivations for even considering it? Tired of the car? Looking for something different? Be sure about your reasons and what you really want before committing to a trade or sale.

If you really want a third gen, and are willing to trade for one, let me know. If not... cool. Do whatcha gotta do.
