About time I open a thread for my extended restoration project:
1989 Chrysler (Canadian) Daytona Shelby T-top
A bit of history first:
This is an original British Columbia car, somehow made it across the country and fell into my hands in Nova Scotia. Very little rust, only rust is around e-brake grommet. Car was repainted at some point, but is an original black/silver car.
Paid $600 for it off my best friend, he bought it to save it from some guy who was moving out west. Buddy had already torn all the interior out of the car and shipped it out west (don't make sense to me?) but gave up on getting the car out west and decided to sell it. I was looking for a TD project and my friend did not need anouther project so I bought it off him.
At some point in it's life someone blew up the original 2.2 TII and threw in a 2.5 TI, but all the TII hardware (turbo, air cleaner, intercooler, transmission, etc) was still there. Come to find out that the original motor had a Super 60 package when it was blown and the S60 computer was still in it. Runs well with 2.5 TI computer, but S60 ran like crap obviously.
