Well I have decided or should I say my current hardship has decided to sell my 1990 TGP. It has been a love hate relationship for the past 4 years. I have put about 3,000 dollars into it and it still needs some things to run right. Below is a list of items that are new as of 2007. And these parts have less then 3000 miles on them.

there are items that I didnt included, like oil changes, plugs, wires, fuel filter and antifreeze, but you get the point. I have enjoyed this car, but I have no choice.
NOW for the BAD.
transmission slips in all gears, but second. It was wrecked when I bought it and replaced Front bumper, hood, DS fender and rear bumper. It still needs painted. Cluster isnt accurate of course. The bones of the car are solid, it just needs someone that has the time to take care of the rest of the issues. I am asking 1000 or best offer. But it needs to go soon so make me an ofer. Thanks for looking.

P.S I also have spare parts that will go with it. Stock injectors, both axles, 2 inaccurate clusters, headlight and wiper switches, and some sensors.
Here are more pics.
Man too bad we live so far apart. i would sure love to have it . :icon_sad:
Even with Two more years added to your time I still haven't done as much as you've done to yours. Course, I would tell you to hold on to it, but you might have other Ideas. I hate hear that you have to take a loss. But definitly a good project car for anyone.
I know it is a love hate relationship between us. I have spent alot of money on this car and hate to take a loss too. I think it is a very good project for someone just because of what is all done already.
Would you consider selling me the extra set of stock injectors? I need them for my 2nd TGP motor, the previous owner took the stock ones out and installed regular 3.1 injectors.
Rollingrock I can sell them to you. What do you want to pay for them. PM with an offer and all the info I need.
BUMP!!!! $800 OBO it needs to go soon. If it doesnt sell I might part it out in the next couple weeks. But would rather sell it whole, but I know the parts will sell.
BUMP!!!! Someone has to want this car. Come on guys. I am giving it away at this price, but if it doesnt sell I will be forced to part it out. So by Friday if I have no offers start asking for the parts you need. I will ship smaller items, but not the engine,trans, seats or body parts.
I would be all over it but you are really far away :icon_sad:
yeah that seems to be the problem I am having. I dont want to sell it to someone that doesnt know or care for these cars. Where u located?
Danville IL
how in the world have you been this close to me and I not know it?
Who me or him?
Hes talking to you. Chris lives in Pittsburgh I think
HAHA thats where I bought my turbo cars from. Greensburg, PA which is close to Pittsburgh.
Where is the car?
My car is located in East Freedom, PA. 10 miles south of Altoona, PA
I am interested in your car. is it still for sale?
perchance you didn't pick up some of the front end parts off some redneck up off of route 66 last year did you?
yes the car is still available. No I didnt pick up parts from some redneck LOL. I bought 2 cars from a guy about 4 years ago LOL
BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love to see you sell this car whole... but if it comes down to parting it out please let me know, I would be interested in a bunch of stuff.
I would love too sell it whole also, but noone wants it. So if it comes down to it I will be forced to part it out. So come on someone buy it as a whole. HAHA

if you're talking about the hood and fender from a black tgp, that'd be me that bought the parts.
i also offered to buy the whole car to save it from the demplition derby, but the guy never got back to me.
anyhow, i'm interested in the whole car also, if chris doesn't bite
Well the TGP is sold. Chris and Shaun it was nice hanging out with you guys today. I am sorry it didnt make it the whole way home, but damn it was close. Keep me updated on your progress. And dont forget to keep your eyes open for trailer park hot girls haha.
Yeah I was doing real good till the PMIII pressure switch (at least I think) failed and blew brake fluid out the top of the MC. Fortunately I have a spare for it. I can't wait to start tearing into it.
