So here is how I came across the car.
My father is a used car dealer up in Vermont and we bought this car at an auction up there. The insurance company totaled the car because it had been keyed all the way around, and the interior was cut to pieces. There was no collision so you dont have to worry about frame damage. I have included pics of all the damaged parts.
The car is mechanically sound. Pulls hard. there is a pinhole exhaust leak and the tranny isn't the silkiest in the world, but its never missed a gear.
There is a scratch on the driver's side mirror which you can barely see in a few of the pics, i should have gotten a closer pic. That and a tiny chip near the gas flap.
Work done to the car:
*Completely repainted
*New Tires
*New Brakes
*New KYB shocks and struts
Work needed:
*Seats
*Dash
*Door panels
*Headliner
*Stereo
*Steering column surrounding plastic
I bought seats, which turned out to be the wrong color and were missing the seatbelts. I also bought a dash, that was from a 1st gen with no passenger airbag, if you want it i will throw it in with the sale.
Tiny chip, looks to be from some punk with a BB gun.
You can notice the color difference in the seats in this one.
$8,000 or best offer. If no one makes a reasonable one, i will probably just invest the $700-$1k its going to take to get the car back to tip top shape and/or put it up on ebay.
The car is located in Boonton, NJ, and I would prefer to sell to a local buyer, but if someone wants to arrange shipping, i will help out.
