I have turn signals to include for front but no fogs
Just took the car on a 1,000 mile road trip and the car did great
I have had this car for 5 years now, The G60 blew and I had this ABA laying in the garage from a part out so I decided to do the swap and now Im forced to sell due to College loans and other projects Id like to finish(Because Racecar). The car has no rust and is very solid. I have a garage full of corrado parts, boxes on boxes, so i can throw in some goodies to the right buyer with a good price

The bad:
Tornado Red is peeling or faded, Gives me ones less thing to care about and you can park anywhere and not worry about your perfect paint and door-dings
2BLACK FENDERS (NOT PICTURED) WILL UPDATE POICTURE SOON
The car does not have a radio so you will have plenty of time to think while you drive
Car needs a new gauge cluster, Had one laying around and put it in but its in bad condition
The rad and grill support is rough under the driver headlight from a buddy who cant drive
The car is not 100% perfect but is reliable and a good project for anybody who wants a good solid, running corrado to tinker with. I had Intentions of boosting the car and keeping it... But now I have another black Corrado shell and a 7.5:1 compression g60 calling my name
Car is located in Northern Virginia So here it goes, Pm me if interested
PRICE IS $2,500 BRING YOUR OWN WHEELS OR I HAVE A JUNK SET I CAN THROW IN SO YOU CAN TRAILER THE VEHICLE OR DRIVE IT SHORT DISTANCE.
And as stated, I have alot of parts I could included if the buyer would wish, Aslo if you just need any parts PM me

why is the tach needle missing? does the tach work?
Have Owned 46 Corrados and counting! Several Builds, Several Keepers, Several for Resale, and 7 for parts.
Please contact me with your Corrado needs! Or if you know of a 12 step program

yes the tach works, The needle was broke when messing with the cluster.
