1989 TURBO Grand Prix for sale in Ottawa!!

This would be an excellent driver or excellent parts car for somebody looking to do a Turbo swap into an older J-body

81 k miles, red/tan leather, sunroof

Good:
new turbo cartridge put in in 99, but has low miles since
new paint 3 yrs ago
81 k miles
newer Z rated tires
tranny shifts really well (except issue below)
no to little rust(only surface)
rebuilt crossover
new front rotors and pads
new rear pads

Replaced within the last yr.

struts all around
CPS
o2
alternator
IAC

wires have less than 10k miles on them.

Bad:

Has an idling issue. I think it's a vacuum leak but unsure...runs great on the highway, only an issue in traffic
doesn't shift into OD. also a vacuum issue. The transmission shifts great through all 3 gears, just doesn't get into OD.

If this is concern I also have a complete 5 speed setup (Minus intermediate shaft bracket) to go with the car if they would want it. (add 250 onto price negotiated)


I'm looking for 2300 OBO for it.

PM to talk about it please.

Thanks

Kyle

Can you work on the price at all since its' got a bad transmission? It wont go into 4th gear (4th IS NOT OD). Loss of 4th gear is not a vac. issue on that transmission.

Let me be more clear with what's going on, as I've driven it a bit more and here's what I've noticed.

the car would never drops into overdrive It shifts firm and doesn't slip in any gears. Fluid doesn't nor ever did smell burnt. Scan tool shows a request for 4th, TCC locks up, but never actually downshifts. When you let off the gas at highway speeds, the motor drops back to idle, and will rev to 2,500 (depending on speed) and pull away hard when you get on the gas.


If you are interested in it, shoot me an offer and I'll consider it.
