Exomotive Exocet in Minnesota for sale

[gyvven]

I’ve had my kit for a year now and I just haven’t been able to make the time to work on it. I don’t want to get rid of it, but it really needs to go to somebody that will finish it up. I bought a donor (’97 M Edition, with LSD rear) and stripped it down to the skateboard. I then started pulling the front assembly apart to de-rust and repaint, and that’s where I stalled. The donor was purchased from someone that found it abandoned, so I don't a title for it (I’ve checked the VIN with the DOT and it wasn’t reported stolen.) Nor do I know the state of the motor, I had planned doing a rebuild, just in case. I picked up a couple DNA racing seats (Ebay) to use until I could fit it with something better.

I have about $9700 invested, and a decent amount of time. I’m willing to separate if need be.

I’m looking to get $8800, or best offer, for the whole thing. Or $8000 for kit, suspension, seats; and $800 for the donor (LSD is worth about $600 alone). I will deliver a reasonable distance (within an hour of Minneapolis, MN), but would prefer you pick it up.

Kit:
Exomotive Exocet Sport ($7500)
Silver chassis, Ultramarine (blue) body panels with the new body style.
Dominator Headlights ($150)
Wiring tray ($150)

Suspension:
Tein springs, SKM64-AUB00 ($140)
KYB AGX, 741015, 741016 ($330)

Seats:
DNA Racing ($200)

Donor:
’97 M Edition with LSD rear ($1200)

IM me with any questions,

Jon

I have everything except the seat rails, they went with the seats, and the fuel sending unit which was gone when I got the car. It's been so long I can't recall if I decided I was going to keep the brake and fuel lines, but my guess is I didn't keep them, due to the age and state of the car when I got it. The wiring was very carefully removed and saved. Both sub-frames are rusty, but they aren't soft anywhere. I put the front sub-frame and a-arms in the electrolysis de-rusting tank for a few hours and they came out really nice. That's as far as I got, so some surface rust is appearing on them again. The motor did turn, but I didn't give it a full revolution because I didn't want to damage anything because I know it's been sitting for a long while (at least 3-4 years). The odometer says 208k, so a rebuild is probably in order.

Here are a few pics, but it's certainly not everything. (Apparently I don't have image rights, or I just can't figure it out. So, here's links instead.)

Hi jellytaco,

I've been trying to shoot you an IM but it says I'm only allowed to send messages to staff members, though I've been able to reply to members that have sent me IMs. So, here's you response, and I apologize for not getting back to you sooner.

You can reach me at my username at gmail.

Price Reduction!

I need to get the kit sold, so I'm dropping the price to $7000 for the whole enchilada, or $6300 for everything without the donor parts.

Send IMs or an email to Gyvven at that gmail dot com I mentioned above.

Is this still for sale? I signed up for the forum specifically to reply to your post. This makes me fairly confident I won't be able to pm anyone... from what I've read so far while browsing around. If this is still available, I'm hoping you'll email me a phone # at [e-mail]. I have many questions, and a call feels like the most effective way to get through them all.

Thanks,
Jeff
