1985 Coupe Project Car $2200-JAX Florida
This 4+3 Vette was my DD up to two years ago when I parked and covered it under the carport. Its a great base to work from for a hobby car or to part out. Engine and trans good, all major big dollar parts work. Has new parts,U joints, distributor, water pump, Bosch 3 injectors, plug wires and the heads were done about 2k miles ago. Needs a battery, two 315/35/17 rear tires. Hasnt been started in two years so fuel system flush, tune up and gentle start procedures to run and drive away. It does need quite a few other parts to make it 100% again. A major $11k resto was done ten years ago, most of it body/paint. Front and rear bumpers and a few small spots on the body need to be reworked. Red interior was redone but is now tired after five years DD in the FL sun.
I really enjoyed the car but have lost interest and health problems prevent me from doing the work myself. Its time to move it on. It will have to be trailered, so if reasonably local and you have interest shoot me a text at 904 955 7321 and I will get back with you about detailsand get some pics ready.
Thanks!

Had a chance to help Steve do some maintenance on this car. Unless he's made some changes, the car has polished ZR-1 wheels on all four corners and the back wheels are 11 inch deep lug versions. I had a chance to ride shotgun while Steve took the 4+3 through all four gears and the OD engages smoothly. Excellent project car and Steve is a good guy.

Hi Tima, no current photos but PM your email and I will send some out to you detailing the good and the not so good so you can make your decision. Thanks for your interest. I would love to see this car go to someone who will fix and drive it again. She served me very well as a DD for 5 years.

These pics show some minor damage so no surprises. There are a couple more small paint issues but overall the good paint is still very good. As far as I know its 1985 Bright Red so it shouldnt be a problem to blend. I had plans to buy fiberglass nose and tail pieces to replace the damaged polyurethane but never got that far with it.
