Well, i was parts hunting this afternoon for my 94, and well this guy had this 82 Mecham TA, he claims is a numbers matching, but not sure on motor.. it looks correct except motor, but is a 4 spd car, the body is straight, but needs a ground up resto.. here are a few pics, sorry phone pics suck, and no full length shots, weather went bad.. the owner got it 3 yrs ago and has been thinking bout sellin it.. whats it worth?? i know they are rare...

 

Judging by the REALLY poor shape (what little I see) and rust on the DOOR? I can only imagine how bad the floor is rusted out.....I'd give him $5. Ok, maybe $6!

 

Where is this car? I live in Sebring, I wanna see it!

 

paragus- i live in avon park... well the car is hidden in a salvage yard in west lake wales.. i have the guys phone number, i want to make another run up there to take more pics.. he is not in a rush to sell, but i love rare cars, and i have 2 92 GTA's... i dont think ive seen ur car running around, but i work part time at my dads shop in Avon Park- Joe's Service Center... and i work state corrections... pm me or something if you want to meet up, see the rides...

 

The car itself is worth alot since they only made 300 street legal 1982 MSEs. But give him 2-3k.

 

Check the hood with a magnet, if it is aluminum it is worth a small fortune.

This thread is old guys! Check the dates.

 

wow, thanks for the info, holy hell old thread revived! i dont even know if he still has it, he might.. he kept it hidden away from the other cars.. maybe soon i can try and scrape some cash and make an offer, i dont think he wanted a lot for it.
