I'm getting ready to sell my 88

WIKD · February 10th, 2008, 10:30 AM

Not sure if anyone is interested, and I don't yet have enough posts to list in the classifieds, but this week I'm putting my 88 up for sale in Florida.
Body has 147,000 miles and motor was replaced with one from a burnt car that had 69,000+ miles when the car was at 105,000. So in other words the motor has about 111,000 on it. Interior and exterior of car is in good shape for 20 years old. No major body damage or rust, dash in good shape, seats worn but not torn and headliner is still in place. A/C blows ice cold, cruise works, power windows and mirrors work, even the map light works. In fact it's easier to list the faults so here they are:

Governer in trans sticks when it's cold. Once car is driven about a mile or two the transmission works fine. Until then likes to hang up in 2nd gear. This only occurs if the car sits cold for more than 6 hours.
Heat doesn't work. The heater hoses were not attached when I got the car in 1996 and I never saw a reason to hook them up and see if the heat works.
The adjuster on the right headlight is broke so it stays where it's at.
The window tint is peeling in some places. Does not affect sight.
Power door locks don't work.
Electric fan is hardwired in so it comes on with car. been that way three years without a problem.

That's all I can think of. Tires are in good shape and brakes front and rear are less than a year old, and the color is factory yellow. I am going to list it for $1200.00 or best offer in a day or two and probably stick it on ebay. I'll add pictures to this post tomorrow when I'm at home. Any questions fire away.

Whats the point of even replying with something like that? Maybe to you its worth 500 but not to other people. Keep that nonsense in your own threads.
