1987 Merkur XR4TI Turbo - Click HERE for Original Thread

duke
73000 original MILES, 2.3L turbo, rear wheel drive, heated seats, heated mirrors, power windows, leather, sunroof, b/n tires, alum rims.
Has the regular XR4TI cracked dash and the seems of the leather seats seperated, a fiew rust spots, but no holes, leaks oil from valve cover seal, needs a tune up. Its an auto but it is a easy swap to put in a T5 out of a turbo chicken.

$999obo

Lets see some pics

I'll put some up in a couple of days.
I have it in my garage right now putting in a timing belt and valve cover gasket.

duke
I'll get some recent ones this weekend.

Here is an engine shot.

Just finished a new timing belt, air filter, valve cover gasket and painted valve cover.
Not a bad car for a thousand dollars.

anyone like drifting.....:dunno:

Why so cheap? Timing belt was probably pretty expesive in itself...

... If i had the money i might buy the merkur... but since i have no money and i just bought a car then. Great deal on the car tho, looks in decent shape for the age :bthumbup:

duke
Well I'm getting another jeep and want to sell the merkur(too many cars) I just bought it about a month ago but I change my mind whenever another car comes along I want:D
The price reflects the car, I could put some more hours into it and sell it for a hell of alot more but I want it gone this week.
Timing belts are cheap, its the labor you pay for, and being a mechanic helps in that department.

So what other stuff does it need. Is it all minor, or does it need some major repairs?

beatshack
if the repairs arent major i'm down to buy right now.. u have my number.

gee_tee_eye
looks nice... any more pics?

duke
Here are some more pics.
This is a $1000 dollar car, you get what you pay for, if you want a race ready show car this aint it and you better loosen the purse strings. It needs a windshield if you don't like cracks, dash is cracked like all XR4TI, leather seams are pulled apart also like all XR4TIs. Will need brakes soon, needs fluids changed, some rust repair,(no holes just cosmetic shit) a couple of light lenses, and tail pipe. If I were to fix these things I would be now looking for more like $6000, I did the valve cover seal, upper intake seal and a timeing belt. Runs great, heated seats/mirrors work, power windows work, sunroof works, warning lights work, original mileage, turbo not blowing oil, info center works( tells you if and what bulbs are blown, open doors etc)
Don't bother lowballing cause I'll just keep it and raffle off tickets to drive a leopard over it:D



DeathBy240
Would you consider $500 a lowball? You are asking a good fair price already, however, $500 is all I have at them moment. If not, bump for a wicked deal. :bthumbup:

duke
way too low:thumbsdow

DeathBy240
Alright, I understand. It should sell pretty quickly at that price. Good luck. :beer:
