To my surprise, Callaway still has many parts for these cars in stock! As expected they're expensive, but that should not be a surprise for a car that was built in such low volume.
EX: Left exhaust manifold ~$1200, Left Intercooler ~$1400
But those are things that I wouldn't really expect to go bad. The little things that go bad on an old car like this are all not that bad...again for a specialty car.
Just look at the parts cost as a torque tax

Our commitment is to support the legacy of our cars, which I think we've done a great job. Usually the life cycle for o.e. parts are 10 years, if that.
Looks like the majority of parts are there and presentable. Of course some other parts are missing - exhaust and Dymags from 1988, but they can be found from time to time, too.
To the OP, thanks for posting. Good to see this car still around. Last call, it had about 60,000 miles, so it's been enjoyed

That may be true but who would rape a Callaway like that? Before the moron drilled holes in the rear deck it may have been worth close to $20,000 but not even close now.The car to have would be the 87 convertible thats for sale elsewhere,that car is worth every penny of the asking price.
