Vehicle Detail

Attention : car is not running! need a repair! The story: 3 owners car with true 54,000 miles. The engine is a V6. The model is LX (non turbocharged) VIN # 1FAPP6245PH194247 Car was driving fine until I got a blown head gasket last December due to overheating. I had the thermostat replaced but the car had already overheated and the gasket gave up 3 days later. Smokes white. I am assuming the car needs head gasket because it smoked white and while this started to occur, some coolant was dripping from under the car. I drove the car only 3 miles like this because it occured as I left from my home and had to turn around. the damage should be limited to the head gaskets. Waterpump should probably need be replaced too. My last long trip was a 3 hours drive to RI at the end of November. Would be a good deal for someone who can fix the head gasket. Car can be seen. Call Patrick at 203 395 2667 The good: All the front end links hardware was replaced last fall months ago and the handling was excellent. Interior in very good shape. New window motor replaced 6 months ago. All electrical accessories work (electric seat, mirrors, windows etc..) A/C works fine. Transmission worked fine. Body in good condition. The bad: Blown head gasket. Exterior paint has a few chips on the plastic bumpers (see pictures from link below). .A spot of rust on the left bottom fender. A light scrath on the bottom driver door. There is some rust on the undercarriage. Could be blasted.

Car started right up after 3 months idle so the battery is good. Idle was good and just run like there is no issues. So there is going to be no issue to load it up on a trailer. White smoke is not noticeable when the engine is cold but it smells coolant. Car is still very clean. I did not let it run very long as I know that when the engine temperature was up , the smoke was more pronounced. I wished I knew how to fix this myself and not to have to pay for the labor.
