For anyone who is interested, my car is on ebay at http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-...QQcmdZViewItem


My wife is due next month and I can no longer justify a car that I can't fit all three kids and the wife in. It will be sad to see the car go though. Maybe I can get another when the eldest goes to college in 11 years. Thanks all!

Nice! That interior looks great too. Good luck.

Thanks! Oh, and for you west coast guys, I can get you out to Georgia very cheap!

Are you sure you want to accept paypal on this? The % that you will lose off the top will be significant.
Anyway, good luck with your sale. That car is a real buy.

What kind of hit can I expect? Does paypal charge for non-credit card trans? Thanks for the complements!

ehall

You need to go to www.paypal.com and look at the percentage. On 10k it is considerable. If it is financed, as I would expect, through an outside source, you will only get whacked by ebay's fees. Just add those fees into your price.

Beautiful car. You won't have any problem selling. Seems like you could find a local buyer for a car that nice and reasonably priced.

Very nice car and a good price too. Good luck on the sale.

Thanks ehall!


The reason I'm trying ebay is to get a larger audience to look at the car. I really don't want to sell it, but I really can't justify it anymore. Time to move on to a toy that will take the whole family. I.E. Ski Nautique.

It's an auction and I don't see any "Buy It Now" price, so I don't know how good? Of course I'm curious, but I don't expect you to reveal the reserve here, wi54545. Let's see, it's at $9,650 with 2 days left. All the serious bidders will be waiting until the end. I'd guess it will be bid up to $15-16K--maybe more? We could start a pool on it--oops, no internet gambling allowed.

It's a beautiful car, for sure. Red/cashmere my favorite color combo.

My .02 on selling it would be to advertise it on Autotrader *and* Cars.com. The buyers for my last two cars both came from Cars.com. You might consider that if eBay doesn't hit your reserve. I'd be watching it closely myself, but I'm afraid to try and get such a highly and obviously modified car smogged in CA.... I know others haven't had any problems, but I could see driving it across country and running into an evil smog technician...

Man, that is a beautiful car! I do have an OT question though. I see you have the XRP fuel lines. I just received a set from SFR and do not know what to do with the small hose that has the two red fittings. It appears as though you have it routed from the rail to the bottom of the fuel dampner, but mine won't reach. Did you have to buy additional fittings or cut the old crimped fittings off the original hose?

I hope I can bring up the value of our 951s. I think that the reserve is extremely reasonable. Thanks for the kind words everyone!

In regards to the fuel lines, I have some higher res photos if you want to shoot me a pm. The connectors are on the short line from the damper to the rail.

Stephen Porter,

I could give you an AFM to smog with each year. The car is extremely clean running. Even with the cat off I think it would pass emissions with flying colors.

Stephen Porter

You have a PM.

I forgot to ask whether the car has LSD? Not mentioned in description, but thought I would double-check.

Stephen Porter

You have another PM with contact info.
