Up for sale i have my 87 GN that i have owned since October of 2011
I bought this car somewhat as it sits today
The car has a Dakota Digital Dash so i cant verify the miles but when i bought the car off ebay the auto report said 113k and im sure i have only put about 2k on it since i had it...
I dont know much about the car other than what i have found in the center console
  1. which was instructions for 102013 TPS-TEC throttle enhancer
  2. Recipt for turbo tweak chip (which i lost)
I bought the car off ebay from a guy in flordia
It needed
  1. tires
  2. exhaust (old exhaust had holes)
  3. starter
  4. linkage bar for the front end
  5. head lights
When replacing the starter i noticed the transmission had a pink torque convertor attached to it and when looked it up i found and was told to be a vigilante 9.5" 2800.. Other goodies i have found
  1. 42# injectors
  2. LS1 MAF with translator
  3. 3" ATR downpipe
  4. Kenne Bell adjustable fuel regulator
  5. walbro 340 with hotwire kit
  6. Scanmaster 2.0
  7. K&N air filter
  8. Posi rearend
The only changes i have made to the car was a new radio cause the original radio didnt work and i still have it. I replaced the radio with a Clarion double din also added AEM wideband, and 3 guage pillar

The BAD
  1. Only rust i know of on the car is on the rear passanger frame rail. I also see it on the back bumper and those are the only places i know. The floor pans seems to be in good condition
  2. The driver seat is in need or a cover
Im only selling the car so i can have some extra money to build a house

Location: Gulfport, Ms
Price $10,000 Or best offer
Please feel free to ask any questions

450 views and no interest... I will consider offers im not really looking to get 10k its just my starting price.. Come on guys
 
I'd like to talk to my bank about a loan... they're asking me for a vin# and miles on the car.
 
I notice that it's also had the power master replaced with a vacuum booster. A selling / buying feature for some, one less thing to worry about. Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for pointing that out and thanks....
 
It's a very decent looking GN.
It's nicely equiped with some rather expensive upgrades.

And save for two new front seat covers - the interior looks A-OK.
I might consider doing the recover on those two front seats so as not detract from what is an otherwise nice car.
It's not a ton of money to do it - but I get it. It's "only another couple hundred"....blah blah blah..

The black looks good - but they can from 10 feet. But I'm guessing the paint is decent.

There are alot of people that would not even consider what you have "rust".
That one frame rail does look a little gnarly, but they still make steel and welders.

I have got to win a lottery so I can just rescue all these nice TR's for sale on here.
Then be featured in a new reality show "Boosted - Regal Hoarders"
I try to rescue one every year.
But last year I "slightly" exceeded my quota by 2
They were like puppies - our eyes met and I couldn't say no.

You mention a Double DIN Clarion.
I'd like to see a pic of that.

What may I ask is that black looking strap like thing crossing the trunk floor?
Not the rear seat braces - on the floor of the trunk?

That looks to be the trim for the rear deck lid!!

Ahhh...good catch.
But why is it banging around in the trunk? :confused:
I love the way folks on here can spot certain things in the pictures and diagnose them.

I tell people I feel you could lay a part in my hand with me blindfolded and I could tell you what it is.
Or I can towel dry my car blindfolded since I know every angle by heart
 
What is that - a Dakota Digital dash?

Someone put a few bucks into the car.
I notice the ashtray switches for ...????

Sorry i havent gotten back to you quickly my sister had a baby so been out of town for a min here are some pics of the clarion
The black strip crossing the trunk is the Hood trim the car was painted 4 months before i purchased it and i guess they didnt put it back on and i didnt even attempt to put it back on...

Yes it is a Dakota Digital Dash
the oil pressure mph and rpm are accurate and so is the volts but the boost and water temp is off but it doesnt effect the driving
the ash tray switches are for the fuel pump, fan, and i have 1 hooked up for the radio so you can watch dvds while driving
 
I didn't see the Clarion pic, but no worries, as your primary purpose is to try and sell your car.

If I'm not mistaken, can't you just ground that lead permanently for video inhibit on a DVD ready head unit?

That dash is still nice.
Wonder what's up with those other two readouts? Calibration?
Those are kinda of important inputs.
 
You know...real estate is overrated!
Lost the last 25 years of equity here in ATL in the "meltdown" of the century.

Shoulda invested in TR's all during that time and rented!:(
