Hey guys

http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-cars-1997-Eagle-Talon-TSI-Coupe-2-door-W0QQAdIdZ198804887

Just thought I'd pass this along. Was looking for a 2g to swap my parts over to and checked this one out. The guy doesn't know much about talons or anything, and he hasn't driven the car in 6 months. He doesn't respond to emails very fast, best to call him.

Anyways the body was really nice, no rust on the strut towers which is rare. Little spot of rust on the drivers side rear quarter but only surface. the rear hatch has a bit of rust aswell, but again only surface.

The engine's all stock, and really dirty (valve cover gasket). It didn't have any coolant in it when I checked it out which means theirs a leak somewhere. (I think the rad or something down low because it was really empty) He says the previous owner pulled the tranny and replaced it with a rebuilt one and put a "stage 1" clutch in. No way of really knowing for sure but the clutch master and slave cylinder looked like they had been replaced.

This car needs a good home, I have decided to pass it up as something else has come along. Someone jump on this

Thanks

Steve

Thanks for the link.

Looks to have been repainted. Maybe someone else can see the overspray in the front bumper? Great deal though.

I saw this car too and thought it was pretty rusted out underneath, didn't seem to drive all that great either.
