UP FOR SALE WITH NO RESERVE IS THIS 1964 RENAULT DAUPHINE PROJECT CAR. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN DRY STORAGE FOR OVER 25 YEARS. THIS CAR RUNS BUT IT SMOKES BADLY. IT HAS 150 COMPRESSION IN EACH CYLINDER SO I BELIEVE IT IS IN THE VALVE GUIDES, NOT SURE. I TALKED TO A RENAULT PRO AND THAT'S WHAT HE SAID MIGHT BE THE CAUSE OF IT. HE ALSO SAID THAT IT MIGHT NEED NEW PISTON LINERS WHICH HE SAID HE HAS IN STOCK AND WOULD COST AROUND $450 DOLLARS. I FIGURED IT WOULD COST JUST UNDER A THOUSAND DOLLARS WITH GASKETS AND EVERYTHING TO DO IT YOURSELF. IT HAS A RARE AUTO TRANS WHICH SHIFTS NICELY IN AND OUT OF ALL GEARS. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT IN THE STREET AND IT SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL THE ENGINE IS REPAIRED. IT HAS 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES WITH NEW HOSES AND SEALS. THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVER FRONT FENDER AND TOP OF DOOR (WHICH IS FLAKING). THE BODY IS NICE AND WOULD BE COOL AS IS OR TO REPAINT TO MAKE IT REALLY NICE. THE SEATS NEED TO BE RECOVERED. THE GLASS IS ALSO NICE. THE DRIVER DOOR INSIDE HANDLE DOESN'T WORK WHICH I BELIEVE THE ROD IS NOT ATTACHED BUT CAN BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE THE FLOOR HAS SURFACE RUST AND A FEW VERY SMALL HOLES (SEE PICS) THAT CAN VERY EASILY BE FIXED. I DONT HAVE THE KEYS TO IT AND THE PRIOR OWNER HAD ADDED A KEY SWITCH. ALL THE LOCKS ARE INTACT AND JUST NEEDS A LOCKSMITH TO REKEY . IT HAS A DIFFERENT RADIATOR WHICH LOOKS LIKE IT BELONGS ON A HONDA OR TOYOTA. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL RADIATOR. IT ALSO HAS A EXTRA ENGINE WHICH HAS BEEN TAKEN APART BY THE PRIOR OWNER. TAGS ARE TILL JUNE 2011 AND HAVE TITLE IN HAND. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT BEFORE YOU BID ,YOU CAN CONTACT ME FOR ARRANGEMENT. THIS CAR IS SOLD AS IS AND THE BUYER HAS TO PAY $500 DEPOSIT BY PAYPAL WITHIN 2 DAYS OF END OF AUCTION. IF YOU CAN'T AGREE TO THESE TERMS , PLEASE DON'T BID. BUYER HAS TO ARRANGE FOR PICKUP.
