Hey everyone, after failing to obtain a registration for the car and the rotted roof I have decided to part out my '84 SVO.
I am keeping the interior. Everything else is for sale. The car is located near Montreal, Canada.
I am quite confident that this was/is an original 95k km car as that is what's showing on the odometer and aside from the rotted roof, the body is in good condition.
The 2.3T engine starts on the first shot. I think the turbo needs seals as it burns some blue. I doubt it's valve seals as it doesn't puff a plume on start up. Engine is responsive and makes excellent power, surprisingly. The boost button works. Doesn't over heat, purrs pretty smooth. The clutch releases pretty high, but still holds, so it will need a new one. Car hauls ass, really made me grin when it got into boost.
The T5 seems to shift well, though I've only taken the car for a few beatings down the road at work. I believe these cars had upgraded Hurst shifters.
The brakes all feel good and proper and the suspension feels solid. I believe it has the Koni's in the front and some replacements in the rear. Emergency brake system on the car holds incredibly well, probably the best feeling e-brake on a fox I've ever owned!
The wheels all seem to be pretty clean, showing some age and the tires are dry rotted stock Goodyears. I can remove these. No curb rash!
The hood has some rot on the DS front corner but that can be repaired, it's also showing some cracking to the sides of the scoop but I'm not sure if that's the paint or the hood. The front bumper cover can be restored fairly easily, IIRC it's not cracked. The fenders are in good condition. The doors are in excellent condition and are full power, speaker holes cut out but easy to hide. DS door has had the PW motor removed. Quarter panels are in excellent condition. Rear bumper cover and side mouldings in good shape. Five out of six of the thin body strips are on the car. SVO sail panels look to be in excellent shape. SVO side spats are in good shape as are the black rocker strips. SVO bi-wing is in good shape. Hatch is rusty but repairable.
PM me with reasonable offers. All plus shipping, prefer local pick up on the engine/trans/doors but can help with shipping. Lowballers will be ignored. I will begin disassembly after New Years.
