    Default 1987 Saltare project in Ft. Worth Red and $2800!

    See it at: http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/boa/3001246939.html

    I spoke to this guy and the interior is trashed. It's pretty dirty based upon cell phone pics sent to me. Says the floor is solid but needs a tune up because it has not been used since two summers back.

    what a mess. i don't think i've seen intake vents on doghouse before. trailer looks sketchy too. the only way the floor could be solid is if all the crap and dirt prevented water getting in. there sure hasn't been a cover on it in years.

    these listings can be entertaining.

    Poor old girl.

    I really wish I had the funds to start a Supra restoration business, and bring these things back to life.

    That sounds like that old saying about race-cars? "Want to know the best way to make a million dollars racing? Spend two million."

    I'd be tempted to buy this and have it shipped directly to Jim @ Viper. I'm sure that if you wrote him a $10k check you'd have the nicest Saltare on the water for under $13k. That would be smart money and you wouldn't have to experience the "fiberglass itch."
