Donor:

2.0L supercharged LSJ and F35 manual transmission with desirable 4.05:1 ratio

Car was VERY clean and had only side damage – no front end damage. See picture of how clean the subframe was before powder coating.
Car ran and drove well with no issues at all prior to disassembly.

Engine:
ZZP Stage 2 installed by previous owner – Siemens 60# injectors, 2.9” supercharger pulley, dual pass plate, ZZP stainless header. 260+HP
VERY clean under the valve cover. LSJ had Mobil 1 requirement on oil fill cap, and this engine obviously always had Mobil 1

Supercharger:

Ported for use with LS4 throttle body – LS4 Throttle body included. Hand ported to perfectly match up with the throttle body port.
New coupler and fresh supercharger oil
Custom block off plates installed to keep everything clean until installation

DFG short throw shifter included
DFG exhaust modified with secondary O2 sensor bung welded in. Can be blocked off if not needed.

Here is how far I got with the build:
Wiring harness is complete. Everything soldered and heat shrink tubing installed (not heat shrink butt connectors). DVOM verification throughout process to verify continuity and resistance.
Coolant hoses pulled through the frame
Floor panels installed
Steering rack installed
Brake lines and clutch line installed
Steering column installed
Pedal boxes started, but not completed
Everything that I have done so far has been done with the utmost attention to detail

This list is not complete for what is included. First $18K takes it ALL. You must pick it up from NE Ohio location. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
you.

Sorry to see this for sale, hopefully it will go to a good home and get completed. Hope your family issues get resolved quickly. Best of luck and hoping you can try again sometime in the future - a V2 maybe?

Really not interested in having anyone finish it. I've decided that it has to go.

Thanks, Anesthetist. I believe that it is a great deal, as well. I definitely have more than that invested, and lots of "free labor" on what I've done so far. Especially that #%@* wiring harness!! Honestly, it's about to the point where stuff starts to get fun after much of the boring and tedious junk is out of the way...

Cannot understand how this has not sold yet?!? This is the ideal Goblin for someone wanting to experience the joy of building, but not all of the dirty/messy preliminary prep work that has already been done. There has to be someone out there lurking on the side looking for this stage of a Goblin build to jump in and do the bolt together and still have the pride of building it yourself?

I didn't say that I can't understand why it didn't sell yet. I said that I expected more interest.

Fact is, I would have absolutely gone this route instead when I was ordering. No waiting, a lot of the dirty preliminary work is out of the way, and it wouldn't take nearly as long to get on the road.

I think @Desert Sasqwatch is saying HE cannot understand why it hasn’t sold.

anyway, have you tried the Facebook pages? Even the cobalt SS pages on there too. I see people mention goblins a decent amount. Might gain some traction there for people that like the cobalt platform but don’t know about the goblin.

good luck! Sad to see a fellow builder in Ohio sell.

Price reduced to $17K. No need to get a donor, dismantle donor, or complete anything else that I've already completed (including the PITA wiring harness). You could probably have this DF Goblin on the road in a month...
