Why? So awesome yet so unreachable!! Its so damn hard to find one XD. you know I can even find a dang tc. lol I'm just a kid with a lot of big thoughts on what he wants to do with a big toy DX dangit. sorry bout the rant.

So, the svo, what kind of hp are we talking when they are stock.

[Cobrajet67]

205hp in '85 and '86. Finding one will be hard and somewhat expensive. FYI-too many abbreviations-it's a little hard to make out what you're saying.

oh sorry about that. tc= turbo coupe and the XD and DX are smiley's. But I guess I'll just try to find a tc. although I have been having a hard time finding one in my area. The only one I stumbled upon was for $1000 and it had been sitting for 4 years. lol. Thats money I don't have for something that will take that much work. I guess in retrospect it would have been the best thing to do.

$1000 for an SVO or t-bird tc? I would've taken an SVO for $1k if it wasn't a basket case anyway! Just because it sat really doesn't mean too much. It just matters how it was taken care of by the owner and if it's rotted or not. Look on Craigs list for cars near you. Maybe even Ebay might have something you can drive to and look at.

Just a thought, you could get an '87-'93 Hatchback, 4 cylinder, 5 speed and have a driver while you gather the parts & computer to convert to a Turbo Coupe and have a killer sleeper in no time. I started looking for a SVO and couldn't find one either.

[93slowpony]

It was an 86 turbo coupe. And I have a 93 notch, I'm looking for a donor tc, unless of course I find any svo. I don't know, like I said I'm a kid with to much time to think about toys lol.

would u want to sell that notch sometime soon?

[93slowpony]

If I were to get a tc I would gladly. But it isn't in to good of a shape, needs front suspension. Mack suspension feels like its going out and its bone stock. But I will let you know if I stumble upon a reliable daily driver with the things I want. (got to get to work, its how I buy my toys lol) here are some pics. (PAINT NEEDED BAD! worse than Frankenstein)

[93slowpony]

oh and I have cleaned up the engine a lil bit and replaced the tires, the icm, both coil packs, all wires and plugs, the whole exhaust system (except the manifold). So i guess it isn't bone stock, there just isn't anything the I put on it for performance.

slowpony, just keep your eyes peeled.

I got lucky on Craigslist. A guy is parting out 3 SVOs in CT. and I get to go have fun eventually going from carb to EFI!!! oh boy fun with parts swapping!
