Description:

PLEASE NOTE THIS VEHICLE REQUIRES A REPLACEMENT ENGINE! JAE PARTS which is located in Goleta California has all the Engine parts required for a rebuild or has a complete engine for sale at $10, 000 USD.This has an Ontario Canada title but was imported from San Diego to Canada.Absolutely gorgeous car inside and out. Turbo's have been rebuilt. New clutch, transmission rebuilt, New Radiator and brakes are good.Relisting due to overwhelming emails regarding the engine.The engine is not in the vehicle and was removed to Inspect.The engine had just been rebuilt with new heads, pistons, conrods, belts, seals, gaskets etc. However on completion it ran great but kept overheating and then white smoke blew out of exhaust. My mechanic removed engine and informedme a piston blew which has damaged the Short block and the Cylinder heads.The cause of this was a slight crack in the block which engine coolant poured into the oil resulting in engine failure. Hindsight I should have replaced the engine in the first place. This vehicle is being sold without the Engine !!
