Jeff Oberholtzer's Twin's: 1991 1886/2000 and 1992 880/1000

Before we delivered #880 yesterday, Sheri insisted I get some pictures of the two GVR-4's together. This is an older webpage I did with the mods I have on #880/1000:
880/1000
And here is the page for #1886/2000, but the info is rather old. I just dropped new 2G pistons and a Venom intake on it recently:
1886/2000
OK, here's some pictures of the two together, all waxed up and looking good:









#880 is an EXTREMELY clean car, especially the interior. You'd never guess it has nearly 160k on it. For those of you who don't remember, I acquired #880 from a guy who had taken it to the local Mitsu dealer because he was tired of it leaking oil. They charged him $1400 to replace all the engine gaskets, only to have it seize 2 weeks later. 1 1/2 years later, when I bought it after it had sat, I tore the engine down and found nice chunks of the old gasket material in the oil galleries and oil pump! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Of course, they insisted it had nothing to do with the work they had done.


#880/1000 also looks deceptively stock under the hood, to the untrained eye:

Whereas, #1886/2000 looks a *little* more modified. I still have alot of pieces to put back on, and cleaning up to do. I just got it back on the road after a 6 month rest after our 10,000 mile trip out west:

Sheri insisted that I get into the picture too:

Don't they look good together: /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

#1886/2000 again, ala carte:

#1886 on the left, and #880 on the right:

I am going to miss #880, it is a sweet-running daily driver. I thought my wife was going to cry when we handed over the keys:




#1886/2000 is my original GVR-4, had it since March/April 1999. Its not nearly as clean as #880, but it will continue to be a nice project car:
