Well guys here it is. The guy posted it on craigslist and said make an offer cause he is moving over seas wednesday. So i offered him 400 bucks and he said come and get it! Its a 88 and it came with the trailer and a box of aftermarket/stock parts. A gallon of premix oil. And it has a old school ADA head on it, and just rebuilt last summer! I almost felt bad for him handing him $400 bucks. he owns a customs shop so the paint work it top notch. the ski is custom painted as well as the trailer! It looks fantastic! :arms::arms:
WTF $400.00 Dude you scored.:ugh2:
 
The seat is black... its just gotta be cleaned up. It was a pretty good score i think. The trailer is way more heavy duty than the one i have now, so i think i am gonna swap it to this one... Although my other is galvanized.

OMG! Killer deal!!

I know what ya mean about feeling bad for the guy but it is what it is. It is a buyers market right now.

I am about to get raped on my Civic, at least IMO.

But not as bad as your guy got it...lol.

Well guys... i got home and actually took the hood off and starting tinkering with it. I noticed a few bolts were missing, but nothing my generic metric bolt set can't fix. I hooked up a jump box and it turned over a few times, then put a little gas in the carb and wham-o! Fired right up!!! The idle was up so high that it sounded like you were giving it some gas. (not air leak type of idle though.) So i adjusted the idle and what not and put some fresh fuel in it and it will sit there and idle all day long and rev just like it should! Needless to say, i got a good running x2 and trailer for $400! So i am gonna ride the hell out of it in daytona and if it blows, it blows, it was only 400 bucks. I'll clean the motor compartment up when i rebuild it, but until then i'm riding it as it sits!!!!!
