Vehicle Detail

1988 Chevrolet Camaro You are bidding on a 1988 Chevrolet Camaro (No Reserve) I don't know a great deal about cars but will try to describe this item as best as I can. Please feel free to ask any and all questions and they will be answered. The engine is a V-6 and it runs very rough. It starts relatively easily and can be driven at normal speeds under its own power. It steers and tracks straight and true; the alignment is excellent. It corners surprisingly well, considering the poor condition of the tires. It shifts gears smoothly and without problems. It was recently driven approximately 30 miles, in the dark and parked. It did not stall or have any other issues, such as charging, braking or steering while driving, other than the rough running engine and exhaust noise due to a deteriorated exhaust system. The 4-speed automatic transmission was rebuilt at Cottman Transmission and has approximately 10000 miles on it. The transmission is strong and reliable. There are no leaks or known issues associated with the transmission. Other parts, which have been replaced throughout this vehicle's history, include the alternator, shock absorbers, brakes, rotors, condenser coil and starter. There are no major dents or collision damage and as far as I know it has never been involved in an accident. The T-top does not leak. There do not appear to be any major areas of rust. The floors inside the passenger compartment and trunk area are solid; the entire car, including the floor is stable, solid and is not rusting through. Deficiencies include, but are not limited to: engine runs poorly, battery will not hold a charge for any period of time and requires jump starting, tires are in very poor condition, oil leaks, exhaust leaks, other minor mechanical and cosmetic issues (interior and exterior). The major issue with this car appears to be the engine. It runs very rough, lacks normal power, is slow to accelerate and it does leak oil, though no unusual amounts of leaking oil are readily noticed around the cylinder head or top of the engine. Recommended repairs may include replacing the engine, cylinder head, valves and/or related machinery (though I am not certain that this is or is not the case). Accessories included with this vehicle are: Leather-like T-Top storage bag installed in the trunk area and a bra (not currently installed and stowed in the trunk). The title is clear. The registration and inspection are not current (expired). Although we strive to accurately describe this item and any defects that it may have, please note that I am not a professional mechanic and this description should not be assumed to be an exhaustive and/or extremely accurate list of all deficiencies. Indeed I may be over or underestimating the severity of the issues associated with this vehicle. Please be aware that parts may be missing and additional repairs, other than those indicated in the description, may be required. It is our desire to responsibly and accurately communicate the condition and status of this vehicle for your edification. There is no warranty offered or implied with this Camaro and it is being sold as is. In my opinion this vehicle is in surprisingly good/solid condition in spite of the issues with the engine. It has great potential and would make a great project car. There is no reserve with this auction. This vehicle is currently located in Halifax, PA 17032. Interested parties are welcome and encouraged to inspect it prior to bidding. Please feel free to contact us and we will make arrangements for you to do so. Delivery may be available to certain areas for an additional fee, but must be arranged prior to winning this item. Although this vehicle will start and drive under it's own power we highly recommend that this vehicle be towed until professional repairs and inspections have been accomplished. We welcome and encourage interested parties to ask any questions that you may have. Thank you for your interest. Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool.
