Gold 87 Turbo-T with Leather

Trying to gauge interest on this car. Sad to put it up for sale. But, after having it since 1995 when purchased from Bruce Toelle's dad, it's been barely driven (about 20k mi) for a total of 127k miles when I just passed smog a few weeks ago.

Here's some info:

excellent condition even the paint
runs perfect
absolutely no rust (Calif car)

Global West Upper A-arms w/ 1LE rotors
Braided brake lines front and rear
Vacuum brake conversion
Front Frame braces
Bilstein shocks
Eibach lowering springs

Rear Suspension:

Hotckis Trailing arms
1” Hellwig swaybar
Rear seat braces
Bilstein shocks
Eibach lowering springs

Mechanical:

Posi added
Rebuilt tranny

Interior:

Tan leather interior (factory)
Procar Elite front seats in tan
Alpine CD changer, amps, and sub in trunk
Trans + and Boost Controller installed at ECM w/ weather-pack connectors
so can be returned to “stock”/bypassed

Misc:

Bump for a nice car. I think I met you and saw your car a few yrs ago at one of the local Tuesday night meetings.

Yep, that was me. Too bad the last Buick cruise was cancelled...
Well, let me know if any interested parties in the Bay Area.

Both My Dad and I do not recall ever owning or selling this car. I would like the owner to contact me to figure out what is up. My dad and I went over and over this tonight and cked our photo album and do not remember this car.
We have had over 40 or so of them and pic each one. I just can't remember or "prove" that we were the owners of this car at any time. Please, prove me wrong because if not, somebody is not telling the truth.
I have been contacted by a few people wanting more history on it and I just cannot provide them any.
87ltd Please call me to verify your statements and the validity of your ad.

UPDATE!!!! 11/01/07 10:15 am pst
I talked with Garjohn and it turns out he is correct. We did own this car but have no pics and it was sold in 95 so I guess the old aged memory must be going! Sucks to get old. But he is truthful in the statement that he purchased car from Bruce Toelle SR.( Dad). All is well and Garjohn can be trusted. Car is a neat car also.

For Sale/Trade

Hi,

Open to trades. Flexible on make/model, no trucks or SUV's though. Gas is expensive! in CA. Prefer to deal with CA cars only.

Lets see what you've got!

Thanks,

Tempting..., but leaning towards a sedan/sport sedan.
Again, want to deal with CA cars only.

Nice rare car!

Do you have the stock front seats?

Has the car been smoked in, to your knowledge?

Thanks,
Front seats sold to Acoen for a car that he later sold. Seats are usually the most worn item in a car and mine were in great shape!
Never smoked in, I've owned the car since '95.

New Price!

Looking into a TTA.
I've noticed that most cars outside of CA have some rust issues.
This one has absolutely none.
Runs perfect.
Needs no work at all.
