Pros: 5 sp is in good working order, 2nd gear synco is a little stiff in cold, and very aggressive shifting (I wouldn't autocross it anymore) but otherwise should present you no problems. Stocks/Struts are 2 years old, Bilstein Sports, Treehouse racing CABs. rear exhaust is new stock unit, replaced 2 weeks prior to the accident. It is mobile. A/C worked good. Pretty much rust free, was a west-coast car for most of its life, only seen 2 years of cleveland salt and with surprisingly few ill effects.

Cons: Front end damage. Subframe bushings need replaced. Engine was starting to burn coolant at slow rate (expect to need to replace the headgasket in near future). No PS right now as I had to remove belt to avoid damage to radiator lines so it can drive. Paint is starting to peel. Its got a front timing cover oil leak that is kinda messy. I was told resealing it properly would most likely require lifting head.

Has about 190K on body, 110K or so on motor.

500 FIRM, its more then fair just for parts value, but could easily be fixed up or hell make it a lemons car.

I don't check up here very often so my email richardj@safier.com is probably best method.
