No trades please.
304 V8, 3 speed manual. Hard to find a manual transmission Javelin in any condition anywhere in the country, let alone running and driving, the manual trans ones are just not out there. Complete car, not a project. Can be driven. Has a luggage rack, original carpet, headliner, back seat are all still pretty nice. I have the chrome trim for it. It was removed by prior owner for paint but then never painted. Has a ding on the left rear quarter panel and on the hood. Paint on the hood is peeling off. The tires are good, does not have working AC/heat. Really fun car to drive around town and run errands in. I take it on 80 mile drives going 70+mph and have a blast in it.
I'm a weekend hobbyist and a big car guy. I've had people drive/fly in from Dallas, San Francisco, El Centro, Prescott, Show Low and Los Angeles in the last few months to buy old cars from me.
I am a hobbiest/enthusiast with no life so I have recently completely gone through the car to make it as nice as I could for its next owner.
Recent repairs to make it nice for the next guy:
New Champion aluminum radiator
Rebuilt cylinder heads (Expensive $$$$) - Pulls hard especially at high speeds on the top end, pretty fast now for a 304
New Trailing arm bushings
New distributor
Cleaned out fuel tank
rebuilt carb with new carb kit
New fuel filter
timing adjusted
New rear shocks
fixed cigarette lighter
New temp sensor
New 150amp Powermaster performance alternator
New thermostat
lubricated window tracks
New spark plug wires
New carb spacer
New exhaust gaskets
Clean AZ paper title in my name in hand, registered to me. Title says 95,000 miles not actual on it, but that is an error. It happens often in Arizona when you go for a repair or emissions testing and the emissions guy messes up and types in 89,000 miles instead of 85,000 miles (or forgets the correct mileage from the 20-60 seconds from when he looked at the mileage to when he enters it in his computer so he just puts whatever he can sort of remember) and then the car is sold and the next person registers it and puts the correct 85,000 miles on the title, but the miles went backwards because the emissions dude had a typo and put 89,000 miles, so then the system/mvd marks the title as having not actual miles.
There are a lot of nice javelins that have been recently done by big name people:
