rust wise its actually pretty clean. previous owner said it has only seen one winter.

i have noticed 2 spots of rust, on the sunroof itself underside. not on the body. about the size of a silver dollar.


and under the hood passenger side right by the suspension mount, theres about a half dollar bill size rust spot. its not rusted through and could be sanded/primered.


rebuild wise, this is what the previous owner told me.

engine has approx 1000 miles on a total top end rebuild. new valves pistons rings rods etc.

the turbo is a t28r and it was rebuilt. wastegate is new.

has new clutch i believe its an act 2600.

price dropped to 5k, i was driving down home to holdrege nebraska and the clutch pedal went soft. looks like i blew a hydraulic line.

would need to be trailered back up to the TC.

about the rust pics, i can do it but it will be a while, the car is parked at the airport and im on the road for work for a while, 3 weeks.



and i am tall and big, i have to lean my head to the side when i drive, else i hit my head a lot on the roof. i really am in no way a motivated seller, the car runs and drives perfectly so im going to be very patient on this one.
