Vehicle Detail

The Good: Best car I have ever owned. Has every option for 1988 except leather and sunroof. Power Windows, Power Door Locks, Dual Power Seats with Manual Side Bolster and Knee Adjustment, Dual Power Lumbar, Climate Control, Adjustable Ride Control, Adjustable Fuel Mixture, Tilt Wheel, Cruise, Keyless Entry Pad on Door, Power Trunk Release, AM/FM/Cassette with Graphic EQ and Amplifier (presently removed), Power Antenna, Automatic Headlights, Automatic High Beam Dimmer, Cornering Lights, 4 Cylinder Turbo gave me 25MPG to 35MPG right up until I parked it. Very comfortable seats and ride. Great handling and fun driving car. Regular maintenance and oil changes every 3,000 miles. The Bad: Either has blown head gasket or cracked head. I parked the car several years ago but never had a chance to tear into it. Still starts right up and runs smooth, but overheats after 20 miles or so of driving. Clearcoat has peeled off most of the car and the rust demons have been working on it too since its been sitting. Could still be restored or just used for parts for your Turbo Coupe. Not many of these Turbo Coupes around anymore. Hoped to get mine restored, but the time has not been there. Now the Town Nazi's say it must go due to ordinances. You can tell they are not car lovers! Please bid and give my baby a new home! Thanks for looking!
