Thanks, Cliff Ramsdell In a message dated 4/2/2005 9:21:09 PM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My 89 Daytona Shelby is for sale, again. Cliff just got done installing a new block as the old one got cracked from the person I sold it to last year. I bought the car back from the person I sold it to who evidently didn't, or couldn't take care of it properly as I couldn't see it going to the crusher. The engine is still a 2.5L common block. Car is located in eastern Mass. Pics are in the links below. 1991 large spline A568 with posi gone through by Cliff. It has a 4 puck clutch and TIII pressure plate I got from RP. +20 injectors. Adj. FPR. FM under drive pulley Ported intake & exhaust manifolds by Gary D. Exhaust manifold has hole in it for EGT gauge (included) Powder coated pretty much everything, including all 4 brake rotors, all 4 pumpers, Shelby valve cover, intake manifold & other misc. engine parts. Exhaust is 2.5" mandrel built (by Gary D.) exhaust with Dynomax hi flow cat (can be removed & "test" pipe put in place via 2 band clamps) & Hooker super comp muffler. Koni shocks/struts all around. Aside from the driver side motor mount the passenger side mount, front mount & bobble strut are from Johnny Spiva & are poly. Both T-top weather-strips are new as of 2 years ago. Car comes with extra driver enthusiast seat & spare set of T-tops. Downsides: Front tires will need replacing very soon (not smoked by me) Very small gouge in front lower G/E: http://home.comcast.net/~butchn/gouge.JPG I may get get it cleaned up & repaired by my pal if he's got time. Power mirrors & cruise don't work which I haven't had time to diagnose why. Here are pics as of 2 months ago when I bought it back, put it back together & drove it home: http://home.comcast.net/~butchn/89daytona.html The odometer reads 150 & some odd K miles. (15x,xxx) The engine did have 10K on it, but that is moot since the block has been replaced. The engine now has just under about 150 miles on it since the rebuild. Yes, the bearings & rings have been replaced as well. Here are some pictures I took last year before & after rust repair. Nothing except mileage, stereo, battery & the Dawes meter have changed. The PICS are HUGE so you can see detail so they will take a bit to load. Before: http://home.comcast.net/~butch.n/Daytona_close_ups.html After: http://home.comcast.net/~butchn/daytona_newpics.html As I wrote on those pages, I am listing all known "defects" as I am honest as possible so when someone buys anything from me they are not surprised & are satisfied with what they are buying. Email me direct: [EMAIL PROTECTED] if interested. Remember, at 19 psi with slicks this a mid 13 sec car, links here: When I achieved my 1st 13 sec run: http://home.comcast.net/~butchnn/beat_vette.rm And here was my best 13 sec run: http://home.comcast.net/~butchnn/butch_cecil_13_6.rm And of course, when "cleaned up", it's a show car as well! Link to all of my trophies: http://home.comcast.net/~my89shelby/allawards3.jpg I'm only asking $4K or best reasonable offer.
