Vehicle Detail

I had a Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with a V10 at the time. My living arrangement had changed and I need to lower the payments. I found one of these near STL. But my local dealer found this one in Kentucky. They dealer traded for the car with a Caravan. When I took ownership of the auto in late January of 1999 with 291 miles on the clock. (The car was built in September of 1998.) The car was lowered 1 1/4" with Eibach springs. The stripes over the top were silver from the factory. I had them repainted to white and stretched the Le Mans stripes over the bumpers front and rear. The car has front and rear strut town braces. Taken off for the winter and pictured in trunk. The car has the classic problem with the clear coat coming off. It has one spot of rust right near the sunroof. The rear spoiler has some vinyl rap put on it. Did the deck lid to but took it off. Never cleaned the rest off. was doing some testing on rapping the whole car. Sunroof works great and does not leak. The transmission had a problem with coming out of high gear at speed. The trans was completely gone through under warranty by the dealer I bought it from. It never shifted that good from the factory. And has worked fantastic ever since. The car had the classic head gasket problem. That was repaired by another dealer. Along with a new timing belt around 80k miles. The car's 2.0L duel over head cam (DOHC) that runs great. Rated at 150bhp @ 6500rpm and 133lb-ft 5600rpm. Parts that are new on the car.... All new brake disks and pads. Both rear calipers are new. New front brake hoses. Both front calipers are just 4 years old. I have both rear brake hoses but they never were installed and do go with the car. The struts were changed about 6 years ago. The lot of brakes parts were being changed trying to find a sticking right rear breaks. Was hoping the rear break hoses would fix that problem. Next step was to swap out the hard lines. I never did get the brakes bleed right. The other problem is the exhaust is broken. About 5 years ago I didn't have the funds to fix. So I sleeved it behind the catalytic converter. It finally broke this last January. The car also has a short in the light switch. The car has sat ever since. (((((The car sold in the last auction but the buyer never paid for the car. So it is up again)))))) This car has easily been the best car I have ever owned. It has taught me so much but it is time for the next chapter. Thanks for looking and God Bless.On Jul-05-15 at 10:03:28 PDT, seller added the following information: Just drove the car a few miles today. The car's brakes are working better that I remembered. They still need some work. Going to miss this car.
