In reply to KyAllroad:
I thought it was interesting although the price makes it a challenge for the Challenge. At least I THINK it does. Having never done The Challenge, I have no concept of just how much people can do for so little. Anyway, there it is. :-)
An $1800 BiTurbo without cylinder heads is expensive lawn art. That thing will never move under its own power again, but will be pretty doing it.
In fact that may be its highest calling at this point. Buy it for a grand, strip the interior and top (resell to some sucker who bought a ratty example, cover your cost) and turn this one into a planter. Grassroots topiary!
Having driven a Biturbo years ago, they'd have to pay me that for a running example. I never saw the appeal, and this guy is on crack. $1,800 for a bad example missing vital parts...um...no. And I love Italian cars.
An automatic biturbo with missing heads. He just got the decimal out of place. $18.00 is totally reasonable
All you need is a crashed 4th gen V6 F-body for a drivetrain swap and then you get to fix the rest of the car! Should be a fun project, take a few weeks, tops.
I had a soft top, I think they were all automatics. As I've said before I've owned multiple biturbo but have never driven one....let that be a lesson for you.
the funny ad wrote: This car sells for $10k to $16k in running order...
Yeah, that's about right. A running one may have sold for $16k back in the 80's. Since then, there have been no recorded sales of ones in running condition.
If the Blazer were sold, the El Camino driveable, and the price less than half what it is and confirmed that all of the engine parts were there (somewhere)? I'd perhaps consider it. For some reason I really like those cars... kind of regret not trying harder to get the running barn-find one that came up at auction here a few years back. If this were like $500 I'd probably jump at it.
