I herd about this car from a friend who worked with the guy. He needed to get rid of it because the wife was going to scrap it on him and he wanted to see it go to good use, not get parted out or crushed.
Its a 1987 t-type, its got 172K on it, he was the original owner who bought it at the dealer in 87, took real good care of it, its all original down to every little detail axcept a kenne bell chip. The body it straight as an arrow except for one corner of the trunk lid where its also missing the fiberglass peice that fills in that corner. Interior is spotless!! No rips tears stains wear marks or anything!!. Engine is all original with EVERYTHING there even the annoying little plastic clips on all the wire harnesses. Everything works, radio, power windows, wipers, lights, blinkers.
Now the bad, Motor leaks out of the rear main pretty badly and will need attention. With the mielage on the car im just going to pull the motor and do a stock rebuild .020 over. Bumpers will need to be re-chromed due to surface rust. Paint is faded on the top surfaces since its the original paint, but it isnt damaged. Maybe a compound would bring it up but i think i'll get it sprayed.
I'll give you all one day to take guesses on what i paid for it. Then i'll post what i paid.
