Default FS: 1988 Toyota Celica Alltrac *$500*

Hello,
For sale is my 1988 Toyota Celica Alltrac. I had it posted up for sale on here once before, and I've had it for sale just about everywhere at one point in time. The price is now down to $500! It will need to be towed, or you may be able to fix the fuel leak in a few hours to drive it locally. I live 5 hours from the car now, but am still able to have people that I know down there show the car.

Description: 1988 Celica Alltrac
Miles: 105k
Price: ***NOW $500***

Additional Information:
This is a 3S-GTE (turbo, DOHC 2.0L) powered all-wheel drive celica.

I am open to trades - miata, mr2, 240, mid 90s outback wagon, busted 2.5RS...any must be manuals.

The motor was rebuilt by me. Hone/deck/cleaning for the block with new rings, bearings, etc. Used crank. Head was cleaned with new valve seals, seat job, and deck. It's currently leaking oil in a few places.
Suspension is in pretty good shape. I have about -3 degrees of camber in the front from slotting mounting points. Eibach pro-kit. Brand new stock struts front, blown stockers rear. Bushings seem good in general.
Drivetrain is pretty much indestructible. Tranny/axles/diffs will hold 10s stock. Open diffs front and rear, viscous center.
Brakes aren't in bad shape. I had planned to do some work to them, but it was low on the list.
Body... Well, it's rough. It's been wrecked and fixed multiple times. Currently the front end doesn't line up too well, and has rust. Everything behind the front of the front doors is fine IMO. A few spots of rust here and there. It would do great to have two new quarters, and have all of the "widebody" kit removed, cleaned, and reattached. I repainted the engine bay black last summer...it's in good shape minus some areas from doing the engine rebuild.
Turbo has shaft play.
It has problems. It won't pass inspection as it sits. To the best of my knowledge it needs:
CV boots (not all, but it couldn't hurt to do all)
Windshield
Muffler (2 1/2" straight pipe currently)
Cat if you live in an area where they do end-of-the-pipe testing (it has a shell)
Probably tires. The ones on it are "good" still, but there is a flat spot on one that won't pass. (current tires are hankook R2 Z212 195/60/14)
Fuel leak from an injector O-ring

If you have questions or want to see it, get in touch. MTBGAEL is my AIM.

If you have any questions about parts availability/upgradability/etc I can probably answer those.
