Vehicle Detail

****VEHICLE IS BEING RE-LISTED BECAUSE HIGH BIDDER COULD NOT COMPLETE SALE DUE TO COST OF SHIPPING TO HIS STATE WOULD HAVE BEEN TOO EXPENSIVE.**** Take a look at this very rare and clean 1985 Toyota Celica GT-S convertible! On very rare occasions I come across a car as clean and collectible as this one! I am a used car dealer based in Philly, PA and buy New Car Dealer trades as they come in and wholesale or retail them on my lot. This is a blast from the past and a great collectible Toyota since they only made 4,248 from what I could find in my research. This vehicle has plenty of life left in it and is originally a Florida car according to the title and only has 120k miles on it. I drive every vehicle before offering them for sale so I can point out anything that is not original or may need to be looked at by the next owner. It drives great, handles well, clutch and brakes feel good, no noises, no smoke, no taps and appears to be garage kept all it's life. It looks just as it would if it were new! I am not sure if all the paint is original but if it isn't they did a very professional job of respraying it, it has no over spray anywhere and shines like new. The interior is very clean and there are no rips in the seats or door panels. However it looks to have had an aftermarket head unit and had speakers in the factory location in the rear panel behind the door. They were removed prior to trade in. **SO THERE IS NO RADIO, NO SPEAKERS**. It has an aftermarket alarm by Auto Page, I have one remote and one key to with the car. The Top looks like it was replaced recently and is in excellent shape, and is of quality material with a headliner. Unfortunately the power top is not working I am not sure if it's a switch or fuse, but there is an extra power top motor in the trunk and few extra relays I believe are for the top. **Good news is you can easily put it down by hand!** The tires are like new, the factory rims are like the day it came from the factory! There is a factory donut spare in the trunk, and an owners manual in the glove box. So let's go over what I know needs attention, these are all minor issues in my opinion. 1.Power top does not operate (top can be lowered manually)2.Power mirrors are not working (could be a fuse)3.Does not have a radio4.Has a hairline crack in the windshield (same windshield as regular Celica about $120 installed from just about any windshield place) That's about it, one other thing it has an aftermarket muffler on it that actually sounds really nice, not too loud, very sporty. Does *NOT* sound like a ricer fart can. I just put a new battery in it. All around it is a very nice car that in my opinion of driving it could effortlessly make a drive to Florida and back! Ok, Auction Time! Please ask all questions before placing a bid, if you want more pics I will be happy to take a specific pic or for you. I drove the car for 2 days with no problem and it's a pleasure drive! I am not a mechanic, but it seems mechanically sound, hey it's a TOYOTA they are practically bullet proof! I would like this auction to go as smooth as possible, I have perfect feedback because I describe my items accurately as possible. Just keep in mind I may have overlooked something that you may feel is important and to me was minor. The car is being sold AS-IS no warranty, guarantee expressed or implied, etc. its a 1985! Bid with confidence this is a NO-Reserve auction, it has a clear PA Title and will be sold to the highest bidder! I do not charge any doc fees or etc, if you need an In-Transit tag you can purchase one for around $60 at the local notary. I don't carry them since I don't sell many vehicles out of state. A $500 non refundable deposit is due immediately at the end of the auction and I will allow 7 days to pick up the vehicle after the auction unless we agree on something else. The vehicle will be available for pickup or viewing in person thursday,friday and saturday 10am-5pm only. Those are my business hours. The balance will be due at time of pick up in cash only within 7 days. Good Luck bidding and again please ask me questions before bidding! Thanks, Rob.

Someone asked if I have the convertible top cover/boot. I do not, the only items included are what are listed. On Jan-09-13 at 09:19:39 PST, seller added the following information: ***THANKS FOR LOOKING AT MY AD***Please go to the Q&A at the bottom of the page and read the questions and answers before contacting me. I have received multiple duplicate questions that I have already answered a few times. If there is a question you have that has not already been asked or need me to email you a specific pic, then send an email and I will quickly reply to the best of my knowledge and post the answer for those who may have the same question. Please remember that I have only had the car for a few days, I am not the original owner so my knowledge is limited to looking at it and driving it for a few days. Thanks!
