"The Beast" is an amazing runner and a daily driver. Mechanically flawless with brand new tires, front brakes, brake master cylinder and complete tune up including plugs, wires, rotor and distributor cap. Just a few thousand miles on new Bilsteins all around, recored radiator, battery, rebuilt injectors and motor mounts. The tranny is perfect. It does leak a bit of oil but absolutely no smoke, starts first time every time. She runs like crazy, drive her anywhere. Seriously. Compression is excellent. The bad: heat levers need replacement and the blower motor is imop. -- before that the A/C was awesome, the compressor has not been converted. It has a bunch of surface rust but very little serious rust. The paint sucks! The interior is decent, it is tex, there are cracks on the dash etc. Carpets are good and there are coco mats as well. The power locks are imop due to a vacuum leak, but are fine manually. It's an amazing car mechanically but needs tlc. Mileage is unknown as speedo and odo are shot. Oil pressure and temp gauge are fine. So Drive the hell out of it or give it some love...no reserve. A million pic: http://gallery.me.com/roadrosen/100448
