    [SOLD] Titled NA naked Goblin for sale - $15k obo

    Mine's classified as "convertible". For some reason the title is listed as "Rebuilt" but the condition is "new". Definitely doesn't seem like a fully-baked process.

    [SOLD] Titled NA naked Goblin for sale - $15k obo

    The biggest thing was trying to figure out what they wanted from me. I started from an already-stripped donor so I never had a title. Which, as it turns out, is an unwritten requirement for getting a title for the Goblin on the first try. Bill of sale doesn't cut it as proof of ownership...

    [SOLD] Titled NA naked Goblin for sale - $15k obo

    After several great years driving, autocrossing, and occasionally corresponding with my new friends at the DMV, I finally have a title for the car and it's time to downsize the garage and move on to my next adventure. ~90k on the engine/trans, ~5k on the complete car. Auto with a shift kit...

    jpr's City Goblin - 07/08 LT donor

    Found it on Craigslist. It's the kind that has 2 lateral bars and 2 racks - of that I use only the one rack. It bolts to the Goblin frame with some shaft collars I drilled and tapped.

    jpr's City Goblin - 07/08 LT donor

    After a few friends drove it at a recent autocross practice event and complained about the slow steering, I decided to get off my butt and do some research. Turns out... the Sport Suspension steering racks (FE3, FE5) have a quicker ratio than the Soft Suspension steering racks. 2.9 vs. 3.5...

    [off market] Complete naked Goblin for sale - $12k obo

    Hi David, Currently the car is off market pending getting a title. I'd anticipate it having a title later this summer at which point I may be relisting. I'm not particularly comfortable taking someone's money only to have them discover challenges getting it legal somewhere down the line.

    Maybe - I feel the price was fair as-is (dialed in and tagged, yes, but no title). Having the title in hand adds value by opening the market up quite a bit, and yes, ~15 will be a more appropriate price at that time.

    Logistical disagreements. I'll also be getting it titled before re-listing it.

    The sale did not end up happening, but it is not for sale anymore either.

    Webster, MN. About 20 miles south of Minneapolis - looks like a 3.5h drive for you.
