Trouble Maker Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 Grandpa bought this new in 91, driven down to Florida and back a few times. He passed away about 10 years ago and my Grandma has driven it since then, she only drives on the side streets around the west side. ODO shows 35k, died a while ago. But we estimate it has around 50k, max. She got into a pretty minor wreck two days ago, she didn't have full coverage and has the money to buy a new car so she is just trying to get rid of this. The motor and trans run perfect. Car is perfect inside, never smoked in. Always garaged. It's the base model AFAIK. But they got the option of the 3.1L V6 and auto trans. White on the outside and maroon cloth on the inside. The rear passenger side door, part of the body on that side, and the back wheel got hit. Appears to be no structural damage beneath of the car. The rear passengers side wheel would need at least some suspension components (it's bent pretty far in). Don't know if anything on the sub frame in the rear is bent. The rear door on that side is trashed, but that's about it. Neither of the doors on that side open, but the front one did not get hit. The back one is pinching it. Would be great to pick up for a little bit of money and fix to drive or sell if you could do everything yourself. Would be great to just grab the engine and trans out of too if someone needed it. She drove it home, but that was only a few blocks. That wheel is rubbing on the inside wheel well so I wouldn't drive it very far. This is also just what I can tell from a shade tree mechanic's point of view, you'd be buying a wrecked car with basicly unknown problems, just trying to paint a picutre of what I can tell is wrong with it. She wants this car gone so she can park her new car in the garage, which she should be getting within a day or two. If no one bites on this fairly quick, we are just going to take it to the junk yard. Just figured we would offer someone a chance to do something with this before we sent it off to the junkyard. It would just be a shame to see this thing go to the junkyard just because it has a lot of life left in it. I'm going over there tomorrow and will take a few pics. I live just five minutes from her so anyone can call me to set up an time to see it at 403-0035, ask for Jesse. Car is located near Hague and Sullivant on the West Side. Jesse.
