Used 1986 mr2 - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle automotive sale for sale in Arlington Heights, IL

Vehicle Description

Selling this car because I can no longer have 2 cars and cannot justify driving such a clean example through these Chicago winters. Please do not inquire unless you plan on taking proper care of this car. I have been nice-weather dailying this car since I've owned it. Nothing NEEDS to be fixed.

This car was bought as a shell from the south in the winter of 2016 and had the drivetrain from a 1985 mr2 swapped into it. The drivetrain that was swapped in (engine and trans) had 144k miles when swapped and was fitted with a new headgasket, timing belt, and other basic maintenance. Around this time last year I swapped out that 1985 trans for a lower-mileage 1986 trans (80k miles according to the salvage yard). When I swapped the trans I also added a new oem-style clutch. There is no fifth gear pop out.
This car has no undercarriage rust and has the ORIGINAL paint with all factory decals intact. Chassis is at about 198K miles but you wouldn't know from looking at it.

Here are some other things the car has had done to it/comes with:
Tokico Blue shocks (installed)
Ground Control Adjustable springs (installed)
Falken Azenis RT615k+ (installed)
Sits on the port option Enkei basketweaves (rarest stock wheel on these cars iirc)
New front tie rods and ball joints (installed)
New magnaflow Catalytic converter (installed)
An aftermarket head unit and aftermarket speakers (installed by the PO, not perfect but definitely better than stock aw11 sound)
A complete kit for polyurethane suspension bushings (not installed)
A Metallic blue trunk lid (not installed)
A Metallic blue engine side vent (not installed)
A 1985 MR2 rear sway bar (not installed)
Front bumper bra (not installed)
Car cover
Some repair manuals (OEM + Haynes)

What the car could use:
A new eyebrow for one of the pop-up lights (50$ @ TwosRus)
A new plastic dome for the cabin light (7.50$ @ TwosRus)
Some attention to the rear quarter panel. Has slight rust and has already been treated with POR15.

Have a file with ~ 30 pictures (some of them already featured here). If interested, I can send the whole file to you.
