Ok i found this vert in behind a redneck car lot it has a blown motor..... It is in GREAT SHAPE OTHERWISE!

Body is so straight
rb mufflers
18" wheels/ proxes
momo pedals
momo steering wheel/ shift ****
Aluminum cluster
hks adapter

I can get it for a couple $100 bucks...I know it's worth it..
But I will need it as a daily driver...I have a 87 se that i would be swapping the motor/ computer from, other then that waht else will need to swap to get it to run...Is it a good idea? thanks

 

why swap an s4 motor into it?? look around and see if you could get a cheap used s5 motor that still runs for now and then get the motor that you take out of it rebuilt when you get a chance. if you werent so far away id sell ya the one out of my 89 gxl for cheap, cuz im not gonna ship.

 

that's a steal! Sell it to me, and I'll pull the engine from mine and put it in. for a couple hundred dollars, just sit on it til you have the money for a tII motor, and do it right!

 

Good find. are you sure that it is an S5 because it has the orange blinker lenses, it could of just been repainted and they decided to paint the moulding. I would save up to do a turbo swap instead of keeping it a NA.

 

yea, it looks like they painted the zenki black side moldings. it still looks good though, and a couple hundred bucks, you cant lose!!!

 

wow that car looks really nice. id pick it up for sure. id try and find a good S5 engine for it. but whatever you do you will save cash easly just by getting the body for so cheap.

 

*sob* that's not fair! It's far better then my find and i payed more!! Nice find man, now just fix it up!

 

That is awesome dude. What a steal!

 

damn it, why does that ever happen to me. If you want to sell it, I'll come down and pick it up.

 

LUCKY!

Let us just hope there is nothing seriously wrong wit hthe electrical system!

 

Or hope there is, i'd feel a lot better!! J/K

 

That's an S4... Look at the design of the side molding, where the ridge is, it's center, like an S4. Looks like they just painted the molding to match. I'd take a look for any poorly repaired body damage (maybe a reason they repainted, other then asethetics).

If it really is straight body wise, you're a lucky guy. Hell, those wheels look to be worth a couple hundred alone.

 

why couldn't i have gotten that lucky? my 90 vert cost me 2000 bucks & i've got work to do on it. at least it runs, just gotta put a new clutch in it to see what it'll really do. then a new rear top, a cat back, then a stereo.

if it's an s5, why put an s4 engine in it? If its an s4 as others are saying, then your se engine may just bolt up. Right? What year is the current owner saying it is? What engine is in it now?

 

holy man! look at those rims! man your getting a steal

 

thats definately S4 trim on the thing, painted... not to mention the S5's blinkers aren't tinted yellow

 

Nice, silver kicks ***!

Sell me the wheels!

 

S4 vert is better than S5 anyways
good find
if i got enuf $$ in bank do the swap and everything i'll take it in a heartbeat

 

A little more info-

It is an s4 so guess what- motor swaps perfectly!!!
It runs but smokes like a chimney
49k original miles
carfax says no wrecks listed broken into once
it has rb springs and swaybars too!

I can't believe i found this thing buried in the back of that hick dealer's lot!!

I'm picking it up next week, it drives but i'm like 18 miles away so i'm gonna tow it.. It's so sweet......he's had it for like 3 years sitting back there.. the 18" racing wheels are sweet!!!! not so nuts on the steering wheel or the blue interior...but i can't complain...I'll post updates on the cleanup and swap.

 

damn sweet find! i hate you now! j/k

 

Look at the terrible motor!!!!

 

here's another shot...

 

that's what I love about these cars.

They break so catestrophically that people just let them sit until one day they break down and get rid of them for a couple of 100 bucks.

Awesome find RR.

 

Awesome.
Except there is a prolong sticker under the hood!! LOL
Is there a gun rack in the back too??
How much did you end up paying for it?????

 

sweet deal

 

why is the s4 vert better than the s5 im just curious
