This vehicle was purchased here on Ebay last year from Rhode Island with an blown engine. The engne has been completely rebuilt with mild cam and it runs like new and tranny shift fine with no problems. It looks very good for it's age. It was repainted years ago but can use another paint job eventhough the paint shines really good. The original rims are in very good condition with minor rust starting to show. No rust on the under carraige of this vehicle. New rear shocks, tune up, oil change. The Bad: the rear end seal on the engine is a two piece seal and the cost is $600.00 parts and labor ( it's more labor than the $35.00 in parts) that means it leaks very little oil now, so I decide not to use the car. The engine rebuilder is out of business due to the economy, and I'm now stuck with the bill if I decide to repair the car? It needs minor electrical wiring for some of the gauges, the tires are new from three years ago and are dry roitted can use a set of Goodyear tires, the exhaust is fine but I don't like the black pipes. The car shows very well for it's age with the needed repairs. Everyone always comments about how nice the car looks and what great of condition it's in. It's an easy fixer upper due to the $6000.00 already invested. TRADES OR PARTIAL TRADES WITH CASH ARE WELCOME, As an fellow Ebayer contacted me and suggested that along with his trade which I refused but never the less his idea seems to be a good for today's hard times. Please me pictures and must be of equal value if you want to TRADE?On Nov-17-11 at 16:37:48 PST, seller added the following information: Because of the heavy volume I'm receiving about ending the auction early. I reserve the right to discontinue this auction at any time without notice.
