Vehicle Detail

CAR DOES NOT RUN. The last time we had it started, it did drive (therefore, no known issues with transmission, clutch or balance of drive train). Last time a start was attempted, it did turn over, i.e., engine not seized up. However, absolutely no warranty is made or implied as to whether or not it will ever start and/or operate in a satisfactory manner. Let the buyer beware. Has less than 70K miles. Interior has been reupholstered and is in excellent condition. As expected, the classic Alfa crack in the dash. Excellent paint job with just a few little bubbles on rocker panel. There is one bump in the sheet metal (apparently from corner of battery) protruding about 1/4 inch, with about 1/2 inch diameter. Excellent top and redone interior, both in tan. As far as I can tell, it needs fuel injector work to run. However, there may be other issues (e.g., gaskets and seals since it has not run in such a long time), major or minor. New gas tank. Tires old. Factory alloy wheels good but not perfect. Garage kept, so in excellent physical condition. As with all Alfas, numerous little oil leaks. Uses oil, but does not smoke (last time it ran). Needs hood latch cable (can open with vice grips from cockpit) and (surprise, surprise) a choke cable. No catalytic converter (straight pipe in its place) but both mufflers are good. Plugs new, with just a few miles on them. Various other little things. Brakes should be good. I think the Master cylinder is in good shape, but will not guarantee anything. Again, this car will not start. No warranties of any kind, express or implied. Strictly, utterly and totally AS IS, WHERE IS. Disclaimers are made, not because of undisclosed defects, but because of my frustration with getting and keeping it running.
