I am putting up for sale, my 1989 Plymouth Colt turbo aka Mitsubishi Mirage C53A.

Located in Orleans, a suburb 10 mins from downtown Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

1 of 600 cars imported for Canadian sale. Sticker applied at the dealers, Made in Japan at the Mitsubishi factory, but badged Plymouth Colt Turbo - stickers long since removed.

1500 C53A cars plus or minus a few, were imported to North America in 1989. This was the last year for turbo Mitsubishi import hatches to Canada.

Insured with Hagerty for $ 10,000 and nearly $20K in receipts for parts on or lying in wait to be used.

There will never be such a stash of parts, with this type of car, available in Canada again.

Bold statement? Show me the C53A's....

I run the C53A Turbo VIN Registry over at www.4g61t.org and have clocked in roughly 1/10th of the original C53A's.

2nd owner, bought in Mississauga in late 2004.

Car has undergone a major restoration with regards to parts and power upgrades and parts updates.

Body could use some work in the rear arches and the RF strut tower front face seam - NOT the kind of major rot that plagued 2G's.

HUGE parts hoard MUST go with the car. UHAUL is right across the street from my house. You will need a large trailer or tall boxed cover for your truck bed - I can take pics of the stash for perspective buyers.

Essentially enough stuff to cover my rear garage wall 1-2 boxes deep. Lots of new parts, used parts, interior from a parts car that was stripped, nuts and bolts, spare known good ECU's with Eproms x4

Car is running ECMLink V3 on a 2G fuel map with a 2G MAF setup - EVO MAF waiting for an intake tube swap to install that component.

Lots of parts in the car are from overseas, have history on the forums, or are one off bits created for cars that opened things up for AWD swapping the FWD C50's on these shores.

FWD DSM Transmission is modified and Quaife ATB equipped and currently an EV03 at stock wastegate.

Multiple sets of rims and tires.

I will link to the 4g61t.org thread, because there is too much to list here.

Choose your ride height, choose your boost level.

The original hood is included.

Asking 9K ... justified. Read the links.

SCRAT 1989 Plymouth Colt C53A Ottawa Canada w/parts hoard!
