I recommend this as either a parts car or a fixer, please read the entire description before bidding. It lot drives and has a very strong engine. Last year I bought this from a guy who was moving and couldn't take it with him, I didn't really need another car but decided to help him out. It has an OHIO title that is signed off and clear (No leins and not salvage) but I never regestered it in my name. I run the engine every month or so. The engine is very strong and trouble free but you should not trust the transmission to work, it was slipping in reverse when cold and this indicates to me that when it gets hot it may not work at all. I am starting the bid at a very low $300 because it can get $300 without the engine working from a salvage place, however I have driven the car to town and back a few times (about 5 miles round trip) without any trouble (from engine or trans) and the engine has run idle for hours without problems, it runs very smooth. I took close-ups of all the dings and dents, see pictures 6, 7, and 8 which are all from the driver's side. There is no major body damage at all. The car will require towing and so I expect to sell it within 100 miles of here, and to save money I recommend that you simply use your AAA towing insurance, a full year membership is less than the cost of one tow... Deposit $300 by paypal within 48 hours and pay the ballance in cash on pick-up / delivery.
