Well went to go get the car today, first I've got to see the car in person. I definitely did not get it for many of reasons lol.
Here's the good list:
Steering wheel was decent
the passenger door was ok.....
the wheels were good
The bad list:
engine read a 30psi difference between #2 and #4
the engine was off passenger side engine mount completely
trans wouldnt go into 3rd or 5th
no rain-rail so the carpet was moldy
all the interior was stained/ripped including the seats
the center console was busted in different places
front a-arms and suspension was shot, including the shocks
every bolt was horriblely rusted
even the trunk was rusted with the spare tire
they wanted almost half of what a 10AE with 140k miles would cost in fair, not wrecked condition (think north of $2000 )
So I'm glad I didn't get it. The parts on the car weren't worth selling, I wouldn't want anything from that car on my car so I figured no one else would either lol. Sorry for the hype, hope I didn't ruin anyone's plans!
