Default Interest in a non-sunroof roller

Interest in a non-sunroof roller, I acquired a non sunroof turbo, Iam thinking about a roller instead of gutting the top roof off, roller will have suspension items and steering rack in order to be able to tow the vehicle

$ 1500.00 no engine, no tranny, no nose panel or front bumper, nor rear valance, electrical wiring will be left intact, also no interior, does it sound fair

body is 9.8 out of 10

Car looks nice. Why part it? Why not sell it as is?

Besides the fact it has no Drivetrain?

1) The motor has less than 1,000 miles since the rebuild. It should make at least 350HP at the rear wheels.
2) Koni yellow shocks all around with height adjustable conversion on front.
3) Stage II Vitesse turbo.
4) Great cam by engle
5) Factory non-sunroof car - lighter and more rigid and no leaks!
7) Dash is still perfect.
6) darton sleeves
7) ARP studs
9) Custom exhaust
10) Lightweight flywheel.
11) Custom Perfect Power piggyback, programmable ignition and fuel-the custom maps should still be in the system and software is provided on the manufacturer's website.
12) Large injectors (I think 72lbs).
13) Manual steering conversion (will need to aligned, tightened, etc.)

I wish you would stop doing this to perfectly good cars. Such a waste. It seems like you do this because you know it pisses people off.

the car is not running it has some issues with the head maybe not being straight. The more I part non perfect ones the more each of the running ones increases in price.

Only 1k miles after a rebuild with Darton sleeves and now a problem with the head.

This is some serious :



I hope someone buys the whole car and gets it back on the road.

Too nice of a car to part. I agree with the post above by Modded. I'd rather see another awesome 951 on the road, then worry about my car being more valuable. It's not like these cars are rare Ferrari's. If its just the head, why not fix it, or sell it as is and let someone else save it.

Maybe if people didn't buy Larts parts from the cars he destroys he won't do it anymore. I know I've never bought anything from him, nor will I after reading this post.

I would make so many horrible financial decisions if Lart were on the other end of the country. Maybe hold off on hacking into this one for a few days and see if anyone wants it as a whole?
