  bought this a couple of months back and it turned out to be a crock ,ive replaced the rear diff ,gearbox and engine and replaced the brake master cyl ,there is a spare diff and shafts which could be welded up for drifting ,the car has tein coilovers all round and good tyres and brakes , the engine is a serp 3.9 with the gear driven oil pump and cross bolting bosses in the block and has had a brand new water pump fitted plus it has a real steel trap door sump fitted, mild steel headers and twin stainless systems. the car is scruffy but would go back on the road without too much work. the car has left a bad taste in my mouth and I want rid no offers first with cash takes it. the car runs but needs a few final bits like the gear lever prop and shafts bolting back on .i have a oil pressure and water temp guage that have the senders fitted to the engine and have temp wired them to check oil pressure and water temp ,45psi at idle oil pressure. the car cost me £800 and ive easily sunk the same amount putting the thing right |

its an lt77 5 speed the prop is right it was running and driving when i bought it but the box was nacked as was the diff and the engine which had curse word oil pressure ,i bought a diff from a turbo which has a torsen diff but the shafts were slightly different so i had to buy turbo shafts to go with the diff ,after pulling the old diff out it was the planet gears that were causing the diff to lock so they can be welded up for drifting, the master cylinder was leaking fluid so i bought a good used one along with a set of good used discs and calipers so there are spare brakes , the floors are good one side has been plated but done well ,there is a small hole in one of the outer sills but nothing major ,i run a garage /mot centre and when i changed the motor there was nothing serious body wise ,it might need a few brake pipes replacing but suspension wise it seems ok.
thats about it really first with the cash takes it
