82 Restored SF F/S

Post by 427cobra »

Well I've been contemplating this for awhile. But have decided to put my 82' Sportfire up for sale. I finished this restore back in 2009. It has sat in my garage under a cover since then. I just stared it the other week and it runs great! So it has has a fresh carb clean done to it. When I got it running the other day I also added the aluminum insulation to the under side of the hood. (looks nice)

The list is pretty long of NOS and new parts that have been added to this sled. It also has new paint and decals. However I did notice a couple small nicks in one decal. Not sure how that happened.

I would say there is probably $200 worth of new hardware on this sled...ha

It does have a perfect original JD seat...which we all know are worth some $$. It is featured in the restoration section of this site.

I am asking $2000 for this sled. We all know it would be pretty tough to build a sled like this for that money. I will also throw in a nice silver JD cover with the sale.

I have a ton of pictures of the restoration process and finished product. I will email pics to serious buyers. The sled is in Waterloo IA.

Thanks!
Eric
