Hello all I have this car ready for sale for 750.00 yes that is 750.00. There is good and bad with the car. The his tory was that I sold the car 1 1/2 years ago and the new owner never picked it up. I called and gave an agreed apon date to pick it up or the car would be reclaimed under IL abandon car laws. well that time has come and past so now I offer it to you. The car will need a new battery and has a short in the c500 connector. It will also need a GOOD WASHING on the outside. I have replaced all the breaks headliner and visors. The car will need to be towed. The farthest I drove it was a 60 mile round trip and it ran fine. The car has a tune up preformed and will need a valve cover gasket. I have put different seats in it but do have the seat skins for the seats that are in the car. I am requesting a fast pickup as it has sat here to long. The price at 750.00 is not negotiable. This car was driven in the parade buy the head of the parade commity for the parade.
You can read the build thread herefrom where she showed up to were it is today with a dirty body. Please note that she is dirty now. Any questions please ask. I take paypal and am a motivated seller.

If I had the money I'd buy this car. I wanted to mention I currently have Indy seat covers for sale here in the Mall, & My helper would be interested in the tan covers if the new owner wants to sell them (not sure if he has the money at this time, though). Thanks, ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"

So does it currently run/drive (as long as you get the c500 connector in the right place...which btw what is that? haha and is it hard/expensive to replace?) and just needs a battery right? So....soooo tempting

I am going to go out there an get her running today if I can. Going to test the car with another battery. The c500 is the connector that goes between the firewall. Last trip I took it on was around 60 miles. she is a good car she just needs a good home. I am not promissing that she at this time will make a 300 mile trip but I would tow her home and give her a good once over. I will list all the stuff that I have done to her in my next post.

The car is running now. The c500 is good there was no issue with it. Rhe power cable was loose buy the starter so tightened it up and she is good to go. Here is a list of the things that I have done. The car has a hooker compt header as well. The battery turns over so dont think you will need a new out. I would still tow as it has been sitting for a year and a half
things done EGR TPS plugs wires cap rotor breaks all around front crossmember

I would not trust it as I just started it for the first time in a year and a half. I recomend a tow but you can try if you want. But remember once you pay its yours so if you break down 50 miles into it you have to figure it out

Do you have pictures of the trunk rust? Also you said it had a abandoned IL title, what exactly does that mean and does that pose any problems?
Thanks, Jason
The trunk rust is throught on one side. I am not sure about the other. there is no issue with the title at all. Its was never turned over so its a regular title.

How are you doing Thomas? Did everything go alright? I'm still in the loop for the higher-ups to make the decision about the promotion. I should know for sure in a day or two.

but you said it is in drivable condition right? that is fine (working on it) it will give me some thing to do I had to replace the engine in mine (my first car ever) and now its just special little details now. plus it would be her first car ,too and she still has a year before she could drive it by herself so lots of time. Plus then we would have 2 fieros
That sucks about the dressing. I had surgery about three months ago to have my gall bladder removed. So I know first hand how bad a stomach incision is. How about the rest of it? Can you stand and move around yet? I hope all is well, and that they gave you plenty of meds for the pain. Take care bro

I can get up and down and move around but it feels like I have been gutted with a 10 inch knife or something. ------------------ 1984 Indy Pace car #64 Parade car #4 1985 Fiero GT 4speed 1986 Fiero GT 1997 Supercharged GTP 2005 Cobalt with a twist

Glad to hear you can move around. I was stuck for a week before they let me move around more than just to go pee. ( I refused to use bed pans ) Just an update for you on my end. I called today and they are consulting HR. I was told that they may be looking at me for a better position than the one I interviewed for. So here's hoping. They told me that I should know no later than Monday. Take care bro.
