Hey GRM fam,

I bought this car in October of last year from my neighbors son who got the car as a hand-me-down. He was told by the dad to either do or get the timing belt done ASAP as it was due when he got it. Long story short he waited too long and the timing belt snapped on him. I found the car on FB marketplace with a snapped timing belt and recognized the car and decided to buy it to flip.

 

I replaced the following:

Completely rebuilt head to OEM specs with receipts from a local shop

Timing belt

Timimg Belt tensioner

Serpentine Belt

Serpentine belt tensioner

Alternator

Replaced the junk plastic vacuum lines that are prone to cracking (and had cracked) in the engine bay with rubber vacuum hose

New rear Bosch O2 sensor

 

The car drives well and has about 85% tread left on BF Goodrich G-Force Comp-2 AS tires

OEM SVT wheels are gone but I have a set of NIB Team Dynamics Motorsport Pro Rally 1 in gloss white

Have 2 OEM used but good axles that will go with the car

 

The car needs a couple things:

Roof antenna is broken off and needs to be replaced

AC blows lukewarm, could be a recharge but I honestly haven't looked into it

Looking for $2200 with all the extras, but make a reasonable offer and we can work our a GRM deal

Looks like a good deal. Wish I had the space for it, good luck with sale.

This car seems really cool, made an account just to respond to this post.

 

How far from DC are you located?
