If anyone is interested, this is an NOS Capri RS air dam (same as the 82 GT, 79 pace car, etc). It does not have a lip across the top, and would not fit a GS bumper cover without major modifications. It also wraps around the side (tucked under the upper cover) so that it matches exactly where the ...

how does NJ collector status work? Do you still need emissions?

In PA, if you drive any regular car under 5000 miles a year, the car is automatically exempt and you will get an 'exempt sticker' on the windshield.

There are several specialty plates. My 84 has 'collectible vehicle plate' which is ...

Mike,

I'm not sure how that 85 came up, but that White 86 ASC in Bensalem was definately on ebay sometime in the middle of summer. I remember seeing it and realizing how close it was to home. The auction ended with only $3500 or so, and didn't meet reserve. Then one day a few weeks later, I was ...

Ja,

There is a white 86 asc vert. 5 minutes from my house for sale. If your interested I can get you more info or give you directions to where it's at...



Mike you read my mind!! I drove by that car when I was in Bensalem a few months ago and thought for sure it would be gone by now. It was the ...

Seems to me that the only stuff that sells on e-bay is like 1988 4WD Hi Boy Chevy Blazers with "only" 145,000 miles and "a little rust " ~

Sandy, I've sold a few decent priced cars on ebay in the past. I had a 93 Teal Cobra with 17.5k miles that I sold to buy a house. It brought in 18k.

Also ...

so the door panels could have been the coupe style (what I would refer to as GT convertible door panels with the higher carpet) or the fancier ASC style panels?

Greetings Sandy. Would you happen to know any of the history of this fine looking 86? It closed at only $5200 without meeting reserve. I am curious what you think a car with this few miles should realistically sell for. Ever since that red one I turned away in 1999, I've always wanted another 86 ...

I am right in Philadelphia near Mike M.

thx for the comments. I put my wrecked 81 capri's hatch on the 84 back in the 80's when saleen style wings were the rage. When I re-paint the car, I am putting the bubble back on (sitting in storage since 1988) and moving the gauges to the inside of the car ...

Jason, I've spoken to many many Jasons over the years, with McLarens. If I had a last name, I probably would remember better. I love that white T-Top Capri in your avator. I assume it's yours ? Tellme more about it. Is it a (white) Black Magic? A 5.OL ? Year ?

Sandy, I got the 84 RS in 1988. The ...

unfortunately that auction did little to showcase the true beauty of that car. It really needs to be seen in person, and was an easy sale for the original owner when he advertised it for sale at the various area car shows. Mike M. and I are friends with the original owner.

The under-carriage ...
