Default Anyone have a 26/8 Turbo for sale?

I'm working on a project with one of my neighbors...he's in need of a rebuildable 26/8 turbo.

Anyone have one for a reasonable price?

Thanks much,

Rick

I have a spare one that's rebuildable. Its a low mileage one from an 88 TurboS. A couple of impeller blades are bent. The hotside is perfect. Email me at samluke@sbcglobal.net if your interested.

Van,

I appreciate that...I'm needing something cheaper as I'm buying this out of my pocket to help out my neighbor's son. We're trying to keep him as busy as possible on the car...it limits his time to hang out with the wrong crowd & get into trouble.

Thanks much,

Rick

Any others out there? We're seriously thinking of buying Richard's but wanted to see if there are any others out there...my neighbor is a bit nervous about extra rebuild costs due to the impeller blades being bent.

Thanks much,

Rick

I have one that needs rebuilt from an 89 Turbo S. The nut on the cold side came off but it is all there. My guess is it will probably need a new impeller shaft and bearing/cartrige. Make me an offer.
