Sale on hold - 95% Finished SS/SC Goblin For Sale

[PHENDERSON]

I will add more detail when I get a minute but it's normal length frame, everything powdercoated black except little tiny pieces. Body panels are actually painted. Engine was 100% rebuilt, only thing not replaced were crankshaft and connecting rods. Many engine upgrades, basically everything ZZP sells for this engine. It has all the DF options except wheel covers. It has the detachable steering wheel and billet shifter. It has literally zero miles.

What's left. Some electrical. Button panel works great, lights and blinkers work, fans work, guage cluster doesn't seem to be connected correctly.

Also, it starts up immediately, idles smooth for 30 sec to a minute then shuts down like it's starved of air or fuel. I bought a new MAF sensor and fuel line pressure guage but haven't installed them yet.

I'm only selling because money is tight these days. Asking $20,000 obo. I'll give you all the extra original cobalt engine parts and other miscellaneous stuff I have with it.

You're in Minnesota correct? Probably should add some extra info to your post for this and add some photos. Sorry to hear your selling, but life gets in the way sometimes. Good luck!

First pic, more to come

@PHENDERSON Your idle issue is likely due to fuel trims/timing being way outta wack due to all the upgrades and airflow differences between the Cobalt and Gobo platform. If this happens once your coolant temps get above 140 your vehicle switches from Open Loop to Closed Loop it can't keep itself alive, I'd be even more convinced. Idle quality is more difficult to achieve the more aggressive you go and if you're extra spicy it can't maintain the stock airflow calibration.

If you have hptuners already it's fairly simple and I'd be happy to help if you're willing to put in the legwork. I'd hate to see you offload your hard work at a discount for something that could be a simple fix.

 

[PHENDERSON]

That makes sense! Unfortunately purchasing hptuners isn't really in the cards at the moment. I really appreciate the advice though.

Sale on hold for the time being. I have talked myself into getting it fully functional and at least driving it a little before selling since it's been so many hours spent.

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

Careful, you'll drive it and then not want to sell it!

This is what we all are rooting for.....

I'm in MN and have been looking a long time for the right DF Goblin. Please let me know if you end up posting it for sale again. I would like it.
