I want to make love to the inventer of craigslist.com! I saw 2 5 speed turbos for $350 each, call and make the deal $550 for both he says come get them. As im driving with my U-haul car hauler back to get the 2nd one I get on my Iphone and browse craigslist some more (while driving) BOOM another 83 turbo auto for $500, I call say I've got a car hauler and will come get it TODAY for $250! She says $275, I say Yes!!!!! I now own 4 turbo cars all with clear titles hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha

 

It took me SOOOOO long to find one turbo motor for my car, And I get these in one day. (I'm laughing all the way to the bank)

 

Nothing is for sale yet. I think I'm going to put my extra holset turbo on one, then use my twin turbo manifold on another one??? I really want to now find a couple pre 78's to put the drive trains in, then SELL SELL SELL.

Phil,

Do you really want ME to answer that question honestly?

 

"Mr. 6 Turbo Engines on stands in the Container, and two more in cars out back"?

 

Hell, one was GIVEN to me when I drove out to Fabens TX because the guy liked the Black 510 Coupe I drove there to pick up (For $250)...

 

I'm was like Neumann on Seinfeld: free unquestioned use of a big truck, and all I needed was time to go get 'em! And since I made my own schedule at that time, time was something I could arrange---if not outright schedule a customer visit closer and closer to my prey.

 

Personal best? Bought an 83 ZXT 2+2 for $250 (ran fine), an 80 ZX 2+2 for $125, and then after the lein sale, was approached by the yard to get a THIRD car (1982 N/A Coupe) for $75 if I could clear it out of the yard first! Usually, one turbo and one or two N/A's was my normal Friday Purchase for quite a while there when I could religiously attend the auctions. Craigslist makes it even more of a feeding freny!

Tony your more right than maybe you know buddy haha. they all smell of VERY bad gas, the one auto has been sitting for 5 years, the other 2 five speeds were in a field. I plan on probably parting them all out when I get time to start tearing them down. All my stuff should be done from the machine shop soon, then put mine together, then tear these down. Guys there most likly going on e-bay, with maybe a buy it now price here.......no auction per the forum rules, just a flat price for hybridZ(ers)
