Clean Rust Free '85.5 TC For sale $4700 (Philly)

This is just a feeler, that serious interest may garner a sale. I have been really itching for some V8 Muscle in the drive way, and have a line on a clean '87 Vette. Problem is, I need to sell the bird to buy it.

The car is very clean. I am the 3rd owner and purchased it in November. The vehicle has spend 90%+ of its life in FL.

Since I bought the car I have done the following
-Replaced Alternator
-Replaced Timing belt
-Two new strut mounts
-New plugs,wires,cap,rotor
-Outer Tie rod end
-Alignment
-Fuel pressure regulator
-87-88 ECT panel
-Full trans service
-Bands adjusted on trans
-New vacspoogem modulator
-Replace accy belts
-Rear Brakes and wheel cylinder
-Flush and fill rear diff (Incl. Posi additive)
-New oil pressure sending unit
-HEATER CORE WAS JUST DONE!!!!

The car is currently sitting on snowflakes with Goodyear RS-A with good tread. The wheels have MN12 center caps, which look really nice with the Flemish Blue paint.

The car is NOT perfect though. It will need the passenger's side window repaired. The motor is getting voltage but not moving the window. Since the car does have VENT WINDOWS, you can get by without it for now. The A/C blows cold, and still has the original R12 charge. It needs a new motor mount, and the oil cooler lines replaced (they are currently bypassed and make the temp gauge read inaccurately hot). The turbo hotside has two broken bolts on the elbow, but works just fine that way. Exhaust sounds great. The trim around the rear window needs to be reinstalled.

The car has not been raped pilliaged, or molested, and has lived a very well cared for life. The car runs great, looks great, and turns heads everywhere. Even still has two working Marchal fogs with covers, and the console lid even latches. You will not find a more original rust free 4eye. It has the premium sound system, and still has a working factory amp. The OE radio has been replaced due to it not working, but I still have it so you can always get it fixed and reinstall.

It just had the oil changed, and I am including the following items

- LB3 and Large VAM (already has brown tops)
- Original 10 Holes (with marginal tires)
- New clips to install rear window trim
- Parts to repair current turbo's exhaust leak. May even be willing to throw in an SVO compressor housing in case you want to upgrade to FMIC later


Believe it or not, this car books for close to $10,000, but we all know those numbers are a bit "pie in the sky". Even so, $4700 is an extremely fair price.

I had it at the recent Tri-State NATO meet. If you click the link to it in my signature, I think there are some pictures towards the end.

Feel free to email me (trguy -at- hotmail -dot- com) PM me, or just respond here. Email is probably your best bet though.

I am at work now, so I cant load pics, but will try to do so tonight.

Also open to trades for some V8 Muscle, and am partial to Corvettes.
