Wanted wrecked 86 or 87 Turbo car for engine swap

[my85grandnation]

I am looking for a wrecked 86 or 87 GN or T-Type so I can pull all the engine and other parts needed to switch one of my hotairs over to an intercooled version. Let me know what you have and how much. Would prefer somewhere close to Colorado but I can travel a bit with a trailer to pick up.

Nailheadpowered has a motor and trans for sale
complete motor with ecm exhaust and harness 2500 as the trans is gone. I apparently have a BQ trans if you need a 200r4 but as of now no brf trans so the motor is only 2500.00 plus shipping thanks.

I really need a donor car so I can make sure I get all of the parts I need for the conversion.

I have exactly what you need with a proven motor and combo. This includes a refreshened stock block with about 8k. It has ported Irons, Stock intake- port matched with RJC power plate, PS front mount, PT67-37, 57 Lb injectors, Adj. Regulator, new Walbro 255 lph, Art Carr converter. Line Lock, Rebuilt front suspension, new rotors and pads, camaro alum radiator, Solid performing 200R4, 3in driveshaft, rear LCAs with drop down brakets, airbag

All of the goodies in one purchase
Ran 12.85 at 113 with 15 psi and a 2.3 60ft. Will run low 11s with drag radials..


Great combo, crappy body.. But you get from radiator to rear end. Email me with any further questions. The car is in Florida ..but it will be worth the trip...

'87 T-Type

I have a bone stock '87 T-Type (80K+ miles) that is wrecked in rear but drive train is good. Owned since new. Complete car including moon roof and T-Type wheels. Some new parts. Asking $2,700. Located in northeastern Okla. (Tulsa area)

 

[my85grandnation]

Can the car still be driven, or will I have to trailer it back? Please let me know. Thanks

 

[mjshield]

I'm afarid it will have to be trailed. The body on the drivers side rear was bent bad enough to rub the rear tire. It can move slowly with low tire pressure, as in loading on a trailer.

If my85grandnation passes it up, i would be interested in the car. :biggrin:

Let us know.

What all is still good on the car? Could I get some pics and more info on it? dthom8787@yahoo.com Thanks Dusty

 

[mjshield]

Everything from the doors forward is okay....the trunk, bumper, rear fenders, lights, etc. is damaged. Frame in rear is also bent. Drive train is good...engine and all electronics (ECM, etc.), trans. and rear end. Interior is okay. All the dash, console and seats are good. Dash does have a split spot but it is from weather. Moon roof intact and works.
I'll send you some pictures this week-end if the weather holds.
Thanks,
Mickey

Would you be willing to sell the motor,trans, seperate?

 

[Intercooled88s]

I may be interested in the engine if no one else is.

When i posted i wasnt trying to squeeze out another member, just informing the seller that i would be interested if my85grandnation chose that he didnt want it.

I did email the seller, and told him to let me know what my85grandnation decided and then let me know...
Gee, my85grandnation posts a wanted thread and everyone else is wanting the good parts already :wink:

[my85grandnation]

Thanks Quick6'n'-K.C. I do really want this car so I can do the conversion, I just need to make sure Ive got the funds to go ahead and do it. I also am in the midst of getting a truck so I need to figure out which is more important. I have to many toys.
