Thinking about selling my 2004 Funco 2 seat Hustler. Just not using enough. I am the second owner since 2006.
460hp C and G. SOHC Subaru 2.5 with Garrett gt2860, Tial Wastegate,Turbosmart BOV, Hallman boost controller , all Teflon fuel lines a fittings. Roll over vent valve all an vent lines.
Engine was opened up and inspected, retuned on the dyno by John at outfront motor sports. 110 fuel. timing belt was done two trips ago along with the tensioner and pulleys.
Mendeola 2d with Funco nose cone. 3 trips since rebuild by Rancho. No internal parts needed replacement, all new bearings and seals. Funco did the r and r.
930 gkn cvs chrome Molly cages polished and clearanced. 300m axles. Willwood 4 piston rear brakes. Cnc 2 piston fronts, cnc pedals master and slave cylinders. Funco mustang 2 power steering. Micro stub rear hubs. Dunesport 2 paddles with no wear like new. Beadlock rear wheels , fronts with implements.
Jettrim seats with custom stitching, headrest’s and cooler cover. Crow 5 points, Scat shifter, Rugged intercom and 50 watt radio with speaker or helmets. Lined carbon fiber vinyl interior panels. Car has a 113 inch wheelbase and originally came with a single child backseat. The backseat was removed and panels now cover the back area. Car has four acro HID’s. Car has capacitance fuel gauge like the GEN fours. Three panel rearview mirror 2 halon fire extinguishers. First aid kit and a dirt bags “tool bag.
Car has triple bypass rear shocks, Gil replaced the rear arm bushings with the uni-balls. Funco replaced all the front Heim joints. All shocks were rebuilt by funco. The owner of AG, Sand cars Tuned the suspension. He weighed the car total weight of 1868 pounds with me in the driver seat 160 pounds and full 15 gallons. His comment was weight distribution was just about perfect.
Car has some added bars, including the b pillars and the windshield bar as well as roof bracing for safety purposes. Several bars and gussets were added to the front suspension to prevent cracking in some weak areas that were common with this age of car design.
This is the first and only Sand car I’ve ever owned. The car can turn on a dime it is way more nimble than a utv. and you can drive with two fingers on the wheel in third and fourth gear on the backside of Olds. It will wheelie in second and third gear but you really have to try or pick the right spot. I’m really more of a cruiser as I can make myself carsick if I get too crazy. Car is not great in the Whoops even after suspension tuning and I don’t like to beat up my stuff anyways. Car tops out at 96 miles an hour on Devils dune in Idaho. I have duned with big V-8 cars as well as utv’s. It works just fine for both. I am 5 foot six and the car fits me perfect I’ve had 6’ people drive the car as is. The Brake and clutch can be moved back to their original position in about five minutes for even larger people. The driver seat is on slides.
The car is going to be at the Funco regatta February 24-26 if you are interested or have someone you know who is interested. I would be willing to sell at the end of the regatta. I live in the Santa Cruz area so I could drop it off If it’s on my way home or bring a trailer, I will bring the pink slip, not looking to trade unless you have a very specific C8 Corvette. I think a fair price in my mind is somewhere in in the neighborhood of $33,000. I tried to follow what other GEN 3 have sold for. But these cars are not nearly as common. One only comes up for sale every couple of years. My contact number is (650) 576 0900
