First, here is a high level summary:
She is a clean titled, numbers matching (vins), mostly stock (test pipe), 5 owner 2001 PY w/ 99.7K on the odometer and wears badge 01-1295. From what I understand, there is good reason to believe this is not the original badge. I was told this aligns with CDM ITR’s and not USDM. There is no way to confirm this and I have not been able to track down the original badge from any of the previous owners. Paint is original except for the bumpers (which were painted poorly for the record). Two winters ago I tore down and replaced 95% of the suspension and with a mix of OEM, Hard Race, Moog, TruHart, Bilsteins paired with the original ITR springs. I documented this on ITRCA right before the site went down. The only components I didn’t get around to replacing are the motor mounts (I have a few of them new in packaging) and the rear sway bar end links. Overall the car runs and drives really well – there was a night and day difference with the suspension refresh! I believe this car is a really, really good drivers example that could easily be brought back to mint with some paint work.
The Good:
• New tires in early 2017 -- 195/55R-15 FIRESTONE FIREHAWK WIDE OVAL INDY 500 SL
• Over $1400 invested in suspension refresh (sale includes extras and all original parts)
• 8.5/10 interior with no fade in the back seats (thanks window tint)
• Strong running motor with matching transmission that shifts silky smooth
• Under 100K mile, VIN numbers matching car
• No underbody rust – she is CLEAN!
• I was told she also has a Mugen baffled oil pan but I have not dropped it to verify
• Brand new floor mat set (original set included)
• Brand new decal set (not installed)
• A bunch of other misc pieces & parts to go along with the sale
The Bad:
• Current CEL for EVAP emissions – hoping to get this fixed prior to sale
• May have a slow leaking cam seal
• Paint could use some restoration work along with a few superficial dings here and there – PDR?
• Probable non-original badge number
• 2 rock chips in windshield glass – has not grown into anything major
• Unsure when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced – I was told it was replaced at least once during her lifetime
• 1 rim has some curb damage – not bad enough that it couldn’t be fixed
I may have access to a lift so any prospective buyers can have a close look at heR.
With all of that said, I am asking $19K. I honestly believe that this is a great drivers example that could be made minty fresh with some time and effort. I absolutely do not have to sell and will find a way to hold on to heR if I can’t get a respectable offer.
I will update this thread with additional pics and info this weekend - including engine bay, interior and more detailed exterior pics. Feel free to text me @ 856-498-5587 during the day. Also see my imgur album below that shows some of the suspension refresh work etc.
