Vehicle Detail
***** RELISTING AS AN ABSOLUTE AUCTION. I'M NOT THE RIGHT GUY TO OWN THIS CAR***** Here's the deal. Just bought this. I live in the city of Chicago where we have street parking and this car is slightly longer than the Titanic- meaning that virtually all parking is impossible. It also drinks gas with city driving. Today, check engine light came on. Still running and driving no different than it was yesterday, though. The little maintenance and fix-up stuff that are standard on a 20 year old cars are completely beyond my understanding, even though I realize they're dead simple to guys who are experienced with automotive work. I'm fast coming to realize that buying this car was an awful decision not because its a "bad car", but because it's just a bad fit for me, where I live, etc. I'm a city guy who needs a small, brand new car with a warranty. Believe me- I'm taking a major bath on wagon, so my loss is your gain. Starting it as an absolute auction for $1234.56, or buy it now for $3500. --------------------------------------------------------- 1992 Roadmaster Estate Wagon. Body is fantastic, no rust. Woodgrain body panels all intact The woodgrain striping above the main panels fading (as is totally standard on these) 89,8XX original but I'm driving it, so it'll probably roll to 90 in the meantime. Starts right up, drives fine. The rear passenger side widow is off track (or bad motor, not sure), it's an Illinois car so there's underbody rust (will include a 6 pack of rust reformer primer I never got around to using, if you want to go that route). 3rd row passenger seat, radio is a CD player with detachable faceplate. AC blows cold. Service records dating back to 02 show that it's had less than 10K miles in the past 9 years. Gas mileage: 14-16 city, 22-24 highway. Typical disclaimers: * Welcome to inspect it here in Chicago. * Car sold as-is where is, no warranty expressed or implied * $500 deposit due within 48 hours, period, no exceptions (sorry. Too many non-payers and I can't wait for 2 weeks only to get the "sorry. my wife said I couldn't have another car" line of BS. * Pickup only, or if you want to arrange shipping, fine, but whoever picks it up has to put cash in my hand before it goes anywhere. * No money order, paypal or credit card sales. Cash on the barrel, no BS. TIME WASTERS AND NON-PAYERS, DO NOT BID.

Started the car back up, check engine light was NOT on and the car still is running and driving just fine... Drove it 1.25 hours up, 1.25 hours back with no issues whatsoever. On Jul-22-11 at 18:27:01 PDT, seller added the following information: One more revision here.
