Vehicle Detail
This car is currently located in Glendale Colorado and, aside from the fact that it will probably only be able to drive up a flat-bed tow truck before it dies, it's not too bad. When I purchased the car in 2011, I was unaware that the thermostat was inoperative, which caused the radiator not to run, which made it crack and burst several months later. I used a pour-in sealant to buy some time for me to get it repaired, but I fear that the remnants of the sealant have been continuing to cause issues to this day. Since I bought it, The radiator has been replaced. The air conditioner has been repaired The thermostat has been replaced The radio has been upgraded, but that means the buttons on the steering wheel no longer work. The driver's side window motor has been replaced. The turn signal flasher was replaced some time ago with a flasher meant for tractors, but it's worked well up to now. That said, due to the overheating issues the thermostat may be dead again. The oil and transmission fluid was changed less than 2000 miles ago. The service station has reported that There is an oil pan gasket leak. There is a transmission fluid leak. There is a power steering fluid leak. There may be a coolant leak. The heat shield rattles against the engine when it is running. Furthermore, the I believe the last owner did something strange with the wiring, much of it has been cleared up, but there are still a few wiring problems that interfere with the tail lights working properly. I believe this destroyed the onboard computer. The gas gauge is non-linear, but doesn't take a lot of brain power to determine how much gas it has. Incidentally, it has about half a tank right now. The power window control for the driver's window went missing, so the passenger control on the driver's side was moved to take its place. So the driver's window control is upside-down and the passenger control on the driver's side is missing a button. The passenger control on the passenger side is untouched. If you are still reading this, then I am pleased. As you can see, what I am trying to sell is a project car. Aside from the computer, everything I've mentioned is fairly simple fix for someone who has the time and inclination to do so. The only reason I don't drive it to work anymore is because I'm tired of fixing the overheating problem. I don't have the time to work out this radiator/thermostat deal again, but that's the only stopper from getting it running again. I've never experienced any issues while it's driving, either I've fixed everything or identified the problems (like the heat shield rattling). Everything else is in pretty good condition. That said, this car is an "As Is" sale. I've done my best to explain all the issues I'm aware of, but I'm not responsible if I missed one, or if it falls off your tow truck before you get back. So if you're interested, let me know. Feel free to ask any questions you may have, and if you don't like the sounds of it, then don't bother. I'd rather this car go to someone who wants to work on it than melt it down, but I'm going back to college and I need the money now. Remember, you'll have to pick it up in a flatbed, I'm not bringing it to you. Also, it's titled in NC, which requires ownership changes to be done in front of a notary. So we're need to my bank to complete the transaction. It's registered in the state of Colorado, and that means that it has passed an emissions test which is valid until 7/23/2014.
