Hey, remember this thing?

https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/1987-shelby-dodge-csx-build-thread/52804/page1/
 

About 5 years ago, I sold off my Project CSX that I found on this very forum back in 2010. After going to the Challenge in 2009 and having a conversation with the SDAC guys, I snagged this car to build for the Challenge. I wrenched on it for 5 years, but came to the realization that it needed more work than I was willing to do.

I sold it to my friend Peter, who was a Turbo Dodge guy from way back, and he started working on it. He was a GRM'er at heart, and had about 10 project cars ranging from an AMC Eagle 4x4 to a FWD Turbo Capri, so the CSX fit right in. He was planning on bringing it to the Challenge himself with his son. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2018 and didn't get too much done. His family sold off a lot of his cars, and another Turbo Mopar veteran from CT picked it up. He currently has it up for sale over on the Turbo Mopar forums if anyone is interested.

Car still needs a lot of work, but it's mostly there and most of the expensive bits are intact. I really hope someone saves it!

Wow. That's OG Turbododge royalty ownership. I remember reading Donovan's website when I was a high school senior.
