buy my cars![views:3016][posts:9]__________________________________________ [Aug 8,2006 11:05pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] the specifics for each car are as follows. 1986 Nimbus Grey exterior 14 inch wheels catless side exit exhaust (sounds amazing) stock engine aftermarket boost gauge has been sitting since the winter and all it needs to run is a battery and to run reliably it needs a new tfi (40$ or so) slight surface rust, otherwise the paint is great for being 20 years old. 130k on the odometer stock T9 transmission 1988 (modified) White exterior 15 inch wheels side exit exhaust with stock cat in place and magnapack muffler 2 pod a-pillar gauge set up with autometer boost gauge and air/fuel meter aftermarket tachometer upgraded t5 transmission gutted and polished upper and lower intakes 255 lph walbro fuel pump new brakes rapido front mount intercooler bailey evo blow off valve gillis valve set at 18 psi(manual boost controller) nice interior that has survived the test of time (no cracks on the dash unlike most other Merkurs) slight surface rust and dings with one dent in the rear that is easily fixed. stock clutch is tired and slips aluminum driveshaft recent tune up somewhat leaky power steering AC delete larger VAM and more aggressive ECU from 88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe ------------------- both cars have heated seats and grey leather interiors, power locks, steering, and brakes. i ALSO have a magnitude of spare parts: new stock pistons and rods spare working T9 transmission (should be swapped into the 86) spare stock VAMs and ECUs and a bunch of other Merkur odds and ends these cars are my passion and it hurts to post this but i really don't have the money and drive for them right now. so if anyone knows about these cars and would love to give them a great home please email me. Also is a video of the white one. in the video the car needed power steering fluid but you can hear how awesome the car sounds and how awesome the blow of valve sounds. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...ds.individual&n=2&videoid=666855494 $3000 pics here at the craigslist ad. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/car/191404678.html more upon request |

If my audi sells I can, but I doubt it's going to sell so good luck! I know what it is like to sell a car you love. Merkurs rule, who ever buys these will probably be happy. |
