hood release cable snapped
missing wheel lock keys
cd player is a fairly old kenwood wired to ignition so presets will not stay
oil pres. gauge has spun
no air intake ducts or filter
headliner needs gluing


now onto me.....

i bought this car 9/3/2008 from a fellow forum member. he and i both love this truck dearly, and it was in need of some "over haulin". my mission was to bring her back to life per se.



in the last 2 months i have put on the following parts...

walbro 255
msd cap
msd rotor
nology wires
ngk ur6's gapped at .028
intercooler pipe from sytyperformance (with t bolts)
fuel pressure gauge on rail
new bosch 30# injectors
adjustable fuel pressure regulator from Nolan at Campbell
new fold up tonneau cover
BRAND NEW rear corner cladding

things painted (not GREAT, but looks "good")

all cladding painted to "matte finish" black
hood painted gloss black
grill painted
cowl painted
grill insert installed (between rad and grill, pic below)

BRAND NEW fog light housings and bulbs (makes a HUGE difference actually)

BRAND NEW custom embroidered floor mats (silly, but very nice)

Brand new stickers, and glove box badge (rare piece)

Brand New pioneer stereo, and kenwood speakers (iPod cable installed, wireless remote also)

Brand new PLX wideband, with DM-100 (reading boost, vac, and AFR) [high dollar piece right there]

Brand new GRANT Course steering wheel (yes, the horn works ;) )

new fog light switch

new door panels and A pillar trims.

brand new hood cable (not installed, but included in sale)

new sideview mirrors, pedal covers, reservoir caps (just to clean up the bay)

brand new O2 sensor

fixed power windows (now BOTH work, woo hoo!!!)

i am missing some things, but i can tell you i have dumped a TON of cash into this thing recently........ (way too much in fact)

truck runs, sounds, and looks good. it is not a PERFECT truck, but i would give it an easy 8 out of 10 compared to the ones i have seen lately.

now the eye candy.........

Re: FS: Syclone # 1128 in PA

?? Who Rebuilt the motor ??

?? Garage or Outside Kept ??

Thanks
Ralph

The motor was rebuilt by a local machine/engine shop in the Foxchase section of Philly. I don't remeber the name, something like Rockwell Machine or something.

The truck was garage kept by me since I bought the truck about 5-6 years ago, then sat outside for maybe 6 months or so until Mike bought it which was about 2 months ago.

thanks guys! i will indeed regret selling her, but i NEED a new house, so i have to break an egg to make an omelet.

i would sell the corrado, but i have over 30 grand into it, and it will NEVER get that kind of money.

i will have another SY one day after this one, no doubt!!!

oh, and thanks for bringing Jamie out today Nick, sorry about that ass clown of a cop that busted all of us :( i already have a call in to the police cheif (family friend for 20+ yrs) so this will be resolved!!!
