Vehicle Detail
First off watch the Video, it covers most of everything although I could have planned it out a little better and it's a bit shaky.. sorry. There are 2 parts also. Feel free to ask questions in the youtube chat. A few things I didnt mention. The car is fun to drive and I drive it daily. I feel good about it's reliability even with the issues I mention in the video and in this description. Title in hand and it's clear. The cars softop is in good condition , the back window is a little foggy though. The car comes with a Black hard top(see in one of the photos) I think the 2 tone looks better than all one color. The analog clock on the dash doesn't seem to work. Misc. wiring and things under the dash not connected Passenger headrest is missing one of the poles that go down in the back of the seat so it sits a little off kilter.. it could swivel a little. Hardware could have fell down into the seat back possibly. Alarm system.. I haven't used it though. It beeps and has a red light blinking on dash when armed.. also cuts off power to ignition when locked. Square of carpet on floor behind drivers seat missing, not very noticeable because not alot of room back there. The roller for the top removal has damaged the material behind it, you can see in the photo that shows behind the drivers side seat right above the sub woofer. Doesnt effect operation at all. The console lights dont work(speedometer lights etc..) The blinker lights and warning lights do though. The stereo sounds great, it's got bluetooth/cd/hdradio/aux(in the glovebox). I would likely replace it with something simple though.. way too many buttons and settings. I get a weird clunk sound occasionally from the rear left wheel when I turn left, It started after I replaced the brake pads and that caliper was froze up, it took some work but it unfroze and I think that is an issue stemming from that. Doesnt effect driving at all.. just the sound is a bit odd when you first hear it, but it also just does it occasionaly when you turn a hard left in a driveway. DELIVERY- I will drive ~100 miles from Eugene to help with delivery. Other than that cost and delivery is completely the buyers responsibility. I highly recommend USHIP.. I had the car shipped to me from Southern California for $450. UPON AUCTION COMPLETION I WILL REQUIRE A $500.00 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT within 24 hours. I feel that between the Videos, the pictures and my description I've described everything to the best of my knowledge and you should have a very good idea of the car your purchasing. THE CAR IS SOLD AS IS , NO WARRANTY.
