Purchased this vehicle in 2009 and was disappointed. Anyway, the cream puff was to be used as a parts car, but never took a part off her. The underneath has rust and it was suppose to be a running vehicle. I got her going andhave been keeping her running since 2009......I AM No Mechanic...She is licensed and insured and has been driven almost everyday since November of 2016.. Had to move it out of the garage. Gas mileage is what you think it is. I use a lead additive in the gas for the nail heads seat valves. I don't need to sell this car. This auction may end due to offering this vehicle to other avenues.....I will help with whatever shipper if necessary.
Work I've done:
Had radiator re-cored. Got Lights replaced &working, plugs, wires, distributer, brake master cylinder, tires, voltage regulator, battery & cables, cleaned the carb,oil changes regularly...I also had the transmission go out last year and had a friend help remove the transand use a kit purchased for the Dynaflow /401 Nail Head. Unfortunately, as I said, I'm no mechanic and my transmission leaks...Runs great when full...but it leaks when full....radio is not hooked up to a speaker and have not tested it..I bypassed the heater core because I believe it is not functioning. Speedo works, gas gage works, clock does not. I do not get on the expressways and I do no put the family in this car for car shows.... In my opinion, this vehicle should go to someone who knows what they are doing...or at the very least someone who works on cars...This car has rust and underneath was patched by the previous owner in 2008..The paint on the car is not good and obviously is covering some problems.....
