79 spyder and 2 coupe doors..need to sell

Postby marco_1978_spyder » Sat Sep 09, 2006 2:40 pm

I know this isnt the place for , forsale ads.

The classifieds are moving to slow I need to move my black spyder as a rolling chassis for about 450, depending on what you want with the car...with v8 brackets or without for less.

car will have to be picked up in rochester NY.

Rick (therick) better jump on it, I'm telling a local friend about it today.

How is the Spyder rust wise (floors, unibody, quarters, etc) , also does the Spyder have the full instrumentation.

I am sorry to hear about your bad luck. The judicial system is all money oriented these days. They seem to want to rake you over the coals for a minor mistake. They don't seem to take into consideration that you were only doing it to transport the car from point a to b, you will be treated the same as a person who intended or was driving the car indefinitely in that condition.

I got pull over the week before last, I was driving my bad day daily driver (I just got the registration). I was not speeding (I worked that out of my system eons ago). He pulled me over because I had no valid inspection sticker. After ten minutes of waiting (it felt longer), he verified that I was still legal (you have ten days to get the car inspected after the registration; I was on day eight; inspection appointment was on day nine). But if he wanted to, he could have busted me for some trivial stuff (I forgot to sign my registration card, I was not wearing my seatbelt (I am not sure if he realized this or not), etc. The cop treated me ok and I have nothing against cops (most of them provide a wonderful service; there is always a few bad apples in any profession), but the laws itself don't take into consideration one's intentions. I am sure the story would have been completely different if I counted the number of days wrong and was on day 11 after my registration.

Well in either case, I don't think the 79 Spyder would be right for me, I have literally no talent in the body work department. I know to bolt things on and tear them apart. I thought maybe if it was a rust free chassis (I think you mentioned or I read somewhere it was from UT), it would be worth just to have the spare.

However, I would be interested in those frame mounts, I can even send the money by Paypal. Thanks, Darrin

Also the Monza posi, is that rearend with the upper and lower control arm style or just the lower control arms.

totally.

The black spyder is so hard to describe...

because buyers from the north will see the car differently than buyers from the south.

I cant say yes its rustfree, because then people will get here and say I lied.
But as soon as you say 'some rust'
people assume, its a one of those cars someone 'hopes' can be saved. But will take welding in some impossible places.

Thats not this car.
the floorpan is awesome. I'd wire wheel the rear lower control arm area's and por15 them, thats it.

I've nocked on them and tried to find metal thats breaking apart, but thats not how it is.

the big plate in the passengerside wheel well is fine.

this plate is falling off of alot of 'nice' cars

there is a mysterious hole in the forward part of the wheel well.

not structural.

the lower edges of the rear fenders are totally fine. many times this area is decayed.

the passenger side rear fender has a slight kink

the lower fenders in front have worn through, past the drip pan, but behind this is rock solid, no rust frame rail.

the drivers door has some denting at the front edge.

this car would be awesome for a north east guy who wants to set it up to go down the race track fast.

or the autocross.

Marco, why the plates on the starfire? Wisconsin will let you drive a car home on a fresh signed title in order to register a car. New York not that way? I know when I drove mine home from Texas I needed a temp card board plate to go out of state, signed title and dated bill of sale. I'd call the D.A. and explain the situation,he may reduce, change to a lesser charge or drop it. Right now you got nothing to lose except less cash and maybe save your collection. You can even prove you wern't going to drive it except to storage, show him all your posts!!!

Law enforcement does tend to frown upon driving unlicenced vehicles, even if your just taking it somewhere to get plated, etc. Usually though, if you have the foresight to get it insured they will overlook it once you explain your situation, but driving a car with wrong plates, expired stickers and no insurance, etc is asking for tickets/towing or more. I'm sure driving a rare Starfire GT was enough to catch the cops' eye in this case and having all or some of the above only worsened the situation.

Here you can download online a temp 3 day paper plate to drive to the MVD or emission testing station. Marco, you must of got his attention somehow ( windshield tags up to date?) The trick is to hide them with windshield dirt or snow in the winter. I know the cops in NY notice everything , here the don't. Thats why I'm here and you're still there. I got sick of their stupid car laws. Ny is too depressing for me :cry: . ( I just was there a couple of months ago ) Doug in Az 8)
