Default FS (2) 1985 5 spd LSD cars and a turbo kit....+ extras

Also have 17" wheels with new tires (255 in back). Both cars daily drivers. Looking to change direction with projects. Both cars have fresh belts all around, including the major service. All front seals done, and the trannys are mint of course. Less than 300 miles on the burgundy car since new top end, and less than 3000 miles on the meteor car since wp/tb and all seals and gaskets (cam covers and intakes too, all new rubber boots as well). $15000 OBO...

Voted 'no', have ridden faster than that on a motorcycle (modded Suzuki TL1000R) but fastest speed in a car was about 150. Hope to change that soon though

But aside from the poll, you're selling both cars now?!?

Hello. If I'm reading the post correctly and you're selling 2 cars I have been on the search for sometime now for an OB 5 speed. I'm in Northern Jersey. I would love to check them out if you are selling.

Thanks,
Chris

Questions:

1) What's the detailed condition and seperate price of each car?
2) Who's the manufacturer of the kit, and what is the seperate price?
3) Pics?
