Vehicle Detail

This is an excellent running car. The exhaust is broken off at the Catalytic converter so it will need a cat and the rest of the exhaust. If you have access to welding you could piece it together as the rear muffler is still good. I priced out exhaust at autozone it came to $750. The center muffler resonator is bad as well. The A/C does NOT work. There are two codes most likely related to the exhaust leaking. They are Catalytic efficiency and Bank one O2 sensor lean. There is rust on the rear of the two rocker panels. The front of the dash is warped. There are some minor oil weeps but I am not noticing oil on the ground where the car is parked.The front end is tight. Please look at the photos. This is a 4 cylinder car that run and shifts very well and has low miles.I drove the car 25 miles on hot day and it did not overheat or have any problems. The owner was using the car several days per week as is up until about 10 days ago. I consider the car safe to drive. However this car needs work so if you can't fix cars don't buy it. I am a mechanic and I am selling this for my customer. I have described very clear the condition of this car. The car is at my home in Valley Cottage NY 10989.
