The Good; Cold Air Conditioner and Great Fuel Mileage. Recent repairs include new brake pads and calipers, Clutch master cylinder and adjustment, Battery and voltage regulator, Repair horn, Repair and adjust parking brake and replace trunk lock, Trunk lock now has its own key. The seats and headliner are in good condition. The Becker AM/FM Cassette Player works well. The front windows and vents work well, but I have not tried the rear windows. The Bad, The engine is hard to start in cold weather unless You use the block heater, which has a new cord. The engine has an oil leak, possibly a valve cover gasket and/or oil filter gasket. The carpets are in poor condition. There is a noise in the rear. When I jacked the car up to see where the noise was, the noise went away. It could be a noisy wheel bearing or a c/v joint or something scrubbing.Replacement axles with c/v joints are available on ebay for a very reasonable price!! The noise has not gotten any worse in the two years I have had the car. The Ugly; There are several areas of surface rust. There are some pin-holes in the left rear quarter panel and a small hole in the backseat floorboard. The dash pad has several cracks, but the dash cover hides most of them. The speedometer works but the odometer does not work. The state of Georgia does not require a title on a car this old, but I have a clear title on this one. I hate to sell this one, but I have too many cars!! There is No Warranty or Guarantee on this car. I tried to give an accurate description of all of the good and bad points, but because of its age, there could be unknown problems. It is sold strictly AS-IS. I encourage you to inspect the car or have someone reliable inspect the car for You. I have more pictures available. Please contact me. The trunk has a couple of tires, several hub caps and assorted extra parts that go with the car.
