Vehicle Detail
Great project car. (That's code for it has issues) But it also has awesome potential. As the CarFax detail shows the car has been crashed. The crash long ago (rear) was fixed properly. However, as you can plainly see, repairs for the recent crash have not been completed. (This summer we were calling him Rudolph.) We do have the (red) headlight covers; and a whole bunch of little things we kept from the parts car. About the potential... -Recently replaced: TiresAlternatorEngineExhaustFuel pumpMore (let's talk) We were going to get it painted this winter, but other problems recently changed our direction. I'm willing to explain; if interested call (937) 705-0715. Car is offered locally and listed elsewhere. eBay auction may end (regardless of status, at any time) if a sale is closed via another method of offering. On Nov-14-12 at 07:18:31 PST, seller added the following information: I was surprised when that minimum bid came in without me first being asked about the "issues". I will reject that bid if this information changes that bidders level of interest.Problem minor:The little part (pictured with the sunglasses) is supposed to have a plastic ball socket on both ends. One end is broken and this causes the top to stall as it is being power operated. Turning the hydraulic bypass valve allows manual (assured & quick) raising and lowering of the top. Find this little part in a JY and you are back in the switch operated top movement business.Problems major:The transmission (according to what I've read about common problems with this model) needs valve body work. The fluid is not burnt smelling or dark, but since the problem started, the up shifts are late and there is no reverse.Using his foot to push the car out of a parking space when the above problem first evidenced itself my son messed up the drivers seat adjusting hinge. I've no idea if this is easily fixed or impossible to fix. On Nov-17-12 at 10:47:53 PST, seller added the following information: I have rejected bid placed before the condition was updated.
