THE BAD
-BODY DAMAGE. (please see pics or email to schedule a showing of the car)
-Needs new tires. (have two steel rims on the front with somewhat decent tires but would recommend new rubber on all 4....original aluminum rims included with purchase)
-Could use new struts (struts are OK for daily but are showing age......will include a decent set of low mile strut assemblies complete with springs, isolators, stops, and mounts)
-Could use ball joints and control arm bushings in the near future....not bad just yet.
All I can think of off the top of my head for now but, I am sure there is more. The car runs like a bat out of hell and other than the body damage is actually in pretty darn good shape. The car was undercoated from the factory as far as I can tell from the time spent under it (which has been often lol). Clutch still holds pretty well, and the alignment isn't completely off like some cars of this age.
You can check out the project log here-> viewtopic.php?t=59811 and all the photos I have of the car and parts replaced over the year I have owned it.
I checked the VIN through auto check and it seems that the car was rear ended back in 2008 and that is where the rear end and roof damage came from but it seems it has had no other real issues in it's life other than the snapped timing belt before I bought it. I have loved the car and hope it finds a good home while I set my sights on my new neon. I don't have a cell right now so Email or PM are actually the best way to reach me.More picks available on request
