Rebuilt, Rebuildable & Reconstructed

Gasoline

This car has spent the majority of its life in good n' dry Arizona, and the pristine frame and suspension show it. In the past 16 months, I have put nearly 19k into this machine. I initiated an engine rebuild because the engine was making a questionable noise at idle. After further investigation, it became evident that extensive work was needed. nearly everything was replaced including belts, gaskets, piston rings,camshafts, injectors, and numerous other internal parts. I also spent an additional 600 for stage 2 camshaft, and an additional 200 per cylinder for forged rings. About a month following the rebuild, the alternator went out, and while the car was in the shop I had the clutch replaced. Again, going for bigger and better I went for the stage 2 clutch upgrade which was well worth it! Pryor to my ownership, custom made aluminum headers, and a dual exhaust was installed. The stereo, speakers, and amplifier is Blaupunkt brand. car sounds mean. The whole rebuild was done a mere 1100 miles ago! just a few hundred miles ago I had a custom built radiator installed and the turbo polished and rebuilt. apparently the car was stolen back in the early 2000's hence the rebuilt title. I had saved up money for a very long time to buy my dream car. After I bought this car and had to completely rebuild it, it has left me with a considerable amount of debt. earlier this year, a small leak started from the head gasket. unfortunately I was foolish enough to not get a warrantee in writing. Now I have bills, a kid on the way, over 10k in debt from this, and I don't have a mechanic that I trust to work on this car . If you have the time or money to fix the gasket, I promise you will not be disappointed with the car. there is literally almost nothing mechanical on the car that isn't brand new. pitcures show headlights up, but they function normally please feel free to contact me with questions regarding condition or anything concerning the sale of this car. Questions concerning the rebuild and all of the major mechanical work recently done should be addressed to the mechanic that ordered all parts, and performed the rebuild. --Michael (owner) 3142216355 Terry (mechanic) 636-375-6443
