Looks like a good deal, but I don't need any more projects right now.
Price drop to $2000. Moved to an apartment complex and have no room for it. Challenge-ready if you wanted to go that way.

Thank you
Could you please send some pics to (removed)
Thanks, Paul

Nice. How is the rest of the body? Is it reliable?

Dang.. wish you were closer.
In reply to Cooter :
Reliability is fine, it's a daily driver at the moment.
In reply to Cooter :
The body is OK, but of course the clear coat on the paint is bad in spots and there are some small dents and dings in various places. It's not a show car by any stretch of the imagination.

They all have clear coat issues. I doubt I find a show quality first gen if I tried even when they were 5 years old. Just don't want one that is rotted out bad.
DD would be all I would want. Need to think on it.
Is the engine a full rebuild? I don't know a lot about Neons, but did you take a n/a 2.4 and add srt-4 pieces? How many miles since built?
In reply to accordionfolder :
It's a full rebuild. The engine came from a Sebring I believe, but was completely disassembled and put back together. Which SRT-4 components were used I'm not sure but I think I can go back and find the build thread. I'll post a link when I do. The mileage since the rebuild is less than 2000. I've been driving it daily without any issues but the tune still needs a bit of work. It pulls like a train up to 4k but after that it sputters. It sounds like the wastegate isn't functioning properly. I'm going to bring it back to the builder in a week or two and get his eyes on it.
Go to the neons.org site and search for username BlackDOHC. Most of his post document the car and include lots of pictures.
