Vehicle Detail

Hello, I'm selling my 1997 Buick Regal GS, with supercharged 3800 engine. Up until this week, it has been my daily driver. It still looks pretty nice, but is very rusted underneath. The worst points are the pinch welds and rocker panels which are rotted out, and both rear strut towers are partially rusted through - the suspension is still in place and rides nice, but needs repair to be safe to drive. The rust is only visible in small spots around the rear fenderwells, otherwise the paint and body are in good shape, a few small dings and chips. It runs and drives great, the transmission shifts smoothly, and starts every morning. It does have high mileage (174k) but you would never guess it by driving it. The interior is in excellent shape, all gray leather, seats look like they've hardly been used, headliner perfect. All electric features work correctly (with the exception of the horn and autodimming mirror) In fact I just put in a rear window regulator before I decided to sell it. The wheels are from a newer Buick, not perfect but decent shape. Tires and brakes are not new but have some life left. I've replaced quite a few parts underneath due to rust since I've owned it including: brake lines, fuel lines, fuel tank and filler neck, power steering lines, and muffler. Also done in the last 60k miles or so: all 4 struts and mounts, A/C condenser, plugs and wires, among many other minor repairs. I offer no guarantees on this vehicle, and drive at your own risk. I do not believe it is safe to drive without metal repair to the rear strut towers. On Mar-14-14 at 09:59:49 PDT, seller added the following information: *Just adding a couple notes - It may not be visible in the picture, there is a dent right in the nose of the hood, smaller than a baseball. And the engine has a slight howling noise at idle when it's cold, maybe belt or bearing? Sounds fine once it's warm or driving. And please send me a message if you have any questions or want to see any more pictures.
