This car runs, but needs a good bit of work. It was my daughter's car that she used at college, but she doesn't need it anymore now that she graduated. Since then, I put new tires on it, and I was using it to drive 30 miles each way commuting to work, but when the exhaust system rusted off I decided it was time to give her up. I will do my best to describe the details of the work needed: Needs new exhaust system. The engine leaks oil. I had to add a can of oil every 300 miles or so Needs new moulding around the windshield. It doesn't leak, but the moulding would flop around in the breeze on the passenger side. You can see in the picture where I had used duct tape to hold it down The driver side mirror is missing the adjustment unit. You can see that from the picture of inside the door The check engine light pops on and off occasionally. I was never able to get a diagnosis other than it's probably a loose wire The shifter is a bit fussy and should be replaced. Sometimes you have to slide it up or down a bit to get the key to release from the ignition The power locks don't work well. Sometimes you have to lock or unlock the doors manually. So the car is a bit of a project. But like I said, it runs. The engine turns over quickly and still has a lot of kick. The transmission shifts flawlessly. It recently passed NYS inspection. It has its share of bumps, scratches and scrapes, as you would expect from a car this age, but as you can see from the pictures, the body is in decent shape and isn't rusting. That about covers it. Email me with any questions.
