Vehicle Detail
As the pictures show, this car has quite a bit of rust, dents, scrapes, etc. The car does run. It was idling fine, but now needs a little bit of throttle pressed to keep it running. There doesn't seem to be any leaks other than the radiator cap when the car got warm as we loaded it on the trailer (it was driven onto the trailer). The manual transmission shifts as it should and the clutch seems to be in descent shape. Believe it or not, the radio actually turns on and tunes in. I'm pretty sure only one speaker works. The car was basically used as a farm truck for the past several years. It is missing the passenger side seat. There is rust in both floor boards. The only means of stopping the car are with the emergency brake. If I had to guess, from looking at the master cylinder, it is probably bone dry. I have uploaded a video to YouTube that shows the engine running and it moving forward and back. That can found here: http://youtu.be/rn5LIrCb6bQ (currently uploading while creating this post) Long story short, my wife's grandfather passed away and we're selling this to help with the cleanup efforts. There is a reserve set at the scrap metal price. Please feel free to contact me via e-mail with any questions. If you send me your phone number, I will give you a call.
