Ahhhh.... relief.
Now I can beat my beater 89 TC with a hammer and pretend it's the dealer lol. A 1985 Sig TC, 34,000 showing (certainly 134), one teenie teenie speck of rust. Very well cared for, very clean underside and clean interior. I'm uncertain if I really like the color. I do prefer the dark blue, but pics don't exactly do this paint justice, it is very metallic. Dark blue leather interior. I actually had the brains to see and drive this one before forking over the cash. I've got the 89 as a donor for parts, nothing major, just the stuff I figured I'd have to do on the 89. First up - suspension! Pete |
Just a guess here, Pete. You listen to tubes too? Most of your stereo equipment weighs more than a TV set, and you play vinyl. Not profiling here, just seeing an opportunity to identify some of our shared values.
P.S. Nice ride! Regards, D-Ray |
Did you invest in oil pete ? If not you will be :)
|
No tubes, but not from lack of desire. I have a young granddaughter and didn't want exposed heat sources. But she's old enough now :)
Now with the great recession receeding my income, I'm making do with my Belles 200wpc mosfet sand amp. I need stimulated :D Pete |

The latter versions of those only had 5 liter-302s- and got pretty decent mileage, especially for Land Yachts. My Uncle had an '81, 1st year for the "electronic" dashboard, he got in the twenties w/his, drove it 115K, & spent like $200 in parts over that period. They were a bit underpowered, but maybe not for the "living room on wheels" purpose that they were intended for.

Looks great!

You need a chauffeur for that rig.

Too bad the 89 didn't work out for you. The Fuel injected motor would have been a lot better in the mileage dept. That thing got a regular carb or one of those wierd variable venturis?

The CFI, AKA throttle body AKA single port injection :)
It's the POWER loss that matters. It's a bit slow although adequate. Should get around 22 hwy, 17 or so city. It is possible, but a pretty difficult job, to swap over the multiport onto it. Changed the shocks and rear springs, got a good look at her private parts :) Maybe she is 35K, it looks good. Sandy, I'll get at least another 200K out of her :D Pete |
