CA FS/FT: 1985 AE86 Trueno Restoration
Hello all, I'm currently listing this car for a good friend, and fellow AE86 driver, who is looking for something different now that this project is completed. If you have any questions, please feel free to email him using the provided email address (found below by the price listing), or PM me if you so choose.
Although I'm not very well known on the forums these days, since I've moved to California for college and switched to Toyotas, certain members on this site can still attest to my authenticity and ethics when dealing with cars. I'm very honest and have seen this car run and drive on many occasions; I certainly wouldn't try to help sell it if I didn't have complete faith in both the owner and vehicle. It's a beautiful car for its age, has never been tracked, raced, or abused, and the owner went through a long process to acquire all these rare and genuine parts.
Thank you for looking!

Thank you for the kind words; this car has been a true inspiration for my own AE86 build. It's daily driven without issue, and the engine is just incredible.

The owner had to find each piece separately, and it took quite some time. The interior panels are all in perfect condition, as he's a stickler for quality. The front seats aren't as perfect (6/10) but still rare, the rear seats are 9/10.
For those who know about the AE86, the zenki (early model) JDM bumpers are quite hard to come by; the rear bumper and brackets especially. Most front bumpers with the lights, and "Trueno" badge, go for well over $1,500. The Cibie foglights, which are genuine (and to my knowledge purchased brand new in the box) required a very difficult search, and was found at a random international auction. The rain guards were also difficult to come by, as those were an optional extra when the car was new.
If you have any further questions, feel free to email him with the address provided in the original post.

Price drop to $6800. This will not include the Watanabe RS8 wheels, JDM Sprinter taillights, Seibon carbon fiber hood, matching headlamp covers, or rain visors. Priced to sell.
Truth be told, buyer be aware.
This vehicle has had its vin number tampered with. This is an 1984 sr5 with a 1985 gts vin number

Uh oh lol
I had my eye on this car as well and it doesn't make much of a difference to me if it's an SR5 or GTS. I just went through the entire Zilvia thread though and sadly, the sketchy seller and swapped VIN means stay away.
