@MpyshCongrats! What a deal, thank you to everyone who bid. Mpysh, please send me a message and we'll get this ball rolling!
@mcm1997 As far as I know, yes. The shocks are a little tired, you notice it around 80mph it gets a little floaty. I purchased from Atlanta and drove straight shot with no problems. Tires are good, brakes are good, pads are getting low but nothing bad. I haven’t had it in any stop and go traffic, but I’ve never had any cooling issues. I’d say just the usual 36 year old car things, and look over everything as you go, check the oil, watch temps, etc. But I haven’t had any issues.
@elie7elieno, I believe that started in 1992-1996ish
@elie7elie Hello! Yes, it was converted May of 2004. Blows cold!
@Nsmith95 Thank you for the information, I was never aware of the oil leak there, or the previous attempts at selling at a lower mileage. To everyone bidding, please bid accordingly.
@KevinbriemHello, and thanks for reaching out! Absolutely zero rust, surprisingly this car came from around this area leading back to Indiana and Ohio I believe. It seems as this was never driven in the rain! The quick turnaround in selling is due to me moving states, and can’t take it with me. The fuel system work was from a previous owner, I was told the Fuel Pump relay and Fuel Accumulator were replaced, appears so. I pulled an injector out and they also appear to have been done at some point. I did spray some parts of the undercarriage with some Wurth Fluid Film when purchased, to help keep that frame clean. However there is some oil that does appear to leave a drop or two coming from somewhere. I did the valve cover gasket, but still haven’t been able to pinpoint it. Move date is approaching and haven’t been able to touch this car in a while due to work. Thanks!
