I Bought an 86 SVO...

I don't believe in stock restos...who the hell wants stock? I'll leave those to the guys that don't enjoy driving them...

I'll either 1) sell it as it sits, 2) sell it in running condition, 3) use it as my daily driver, 4) make it into my drag racer and daily drive the 85 SVO and sell the turbo LX.

First up is to sell all the goodies I got with it to pay for the car ;) I'm keeping the 8.8 with 31 spline moser axles, cobra brakes, alum DS, coilovers, eibachs, 2 engines, 2 T5's, and 2 rebuilt big valve heads though:D

ahhh you don't need need the moser 8.8. I've run the stock rebuilt 4.56 geared TC thats in the black car and its been fine. Hell I might even get another few races out of it. :p

dang sounds like a DEAL there. So if you're keeping that what are you selling?
 
I've got the SVO tailights sitting in the back seat, I'm not sure why he was running LX tails. Maybe to preserve the stockers.

I'll be selling the hybrid turbo, a bunch of stock parts, 2 svo IC's, 1 powdercoated TC IC, Centerline wheels, and a bunch of other stuff I can't seem to remember right now.

tealtiger93...you might be surprised how cheap I'd let the LX go...
 
Congrats I think. I alway's kinda pity you.

I try to make my life not revolve around 2.3T's.

I need a t-shirt that say's, "Yes, I own 2 2.3t's and work on 5 regularly - but I'm not addicted".
 
OK, the SVO came with:
--2 motors, one from an 84 SVO, 1 from the 86. Both are good, the 86 one was pulled because the front seal was leaking oil all over the driveway.
--2 T5's, one 2.3 version with a fresh rebuild, one 5.0 version, both in good shape.
--2 heads, one is an oval port big valve head with stainless oversize valves and a fresh rebuild (new springs, seats, seals, etc.) and one is a stock 2.3T head that's been freshened up with a 3 angle valve job, a237 roller cam, etc.

There is also a ton of other stuff I haven't even found in the boxes yet...I'm still sorting through everything and seperating it into "keep" and "sell" piles...

[Edit] I added a bunch more stuff to the above list...
 
He told me he spent a little over 5 grand in the last 2 years on it, that includes buying alot of the stuff used on ebay.

I don't know what I'll do with the second motor yet...I've already got 2 spares and know where two more are local to me...

I'll let some more people guess what I paid for it before I say...
 
ok seriously let me know about the cargo cover for the svo Mine's never had it.

What a deal. I'll hold my guess until a little later but it was already an outstanding deal. I don't think you ever PMd me a price outright for the svo either. I'd still like to know that one too. Will it make it to Va? :p
