FS/FT: Winter Beater - 94 Ford Taurus GL for sale - $400

Like the title says, 94 Ford Taurus for sale. Color is gold. 125K miles on it.

 

The Good: Runs well. Body has some rust spots, but overall is in good shape considering the abuse these cars typically take. The interior is also in pretty good shape.

Doesn't smoke. Automatic w/ PS/PB/PW/Cruise control/Power mirrors.

A/C worked fine last summer -I obviously haven't run it since it cooled down.

Tires have a decent amount of life left on them.

Decent gas mileage - probably 25 mpg or so.

Comes with a CD player and I have the original factor radio.

 

Did very well in the snow.

 

The bad:

has a small antifreeze leak when you first start it up. I have never bothered to run it down so I just add antifreeze to it here and there.

 

Temperature gauge will swing up high (not to overheating) then drop back to normal and stay there after it warms up all the way. Possibly a head gasket leak causing things to freak out. The previous owner had the T-stat and water pump changed and these two things did not make a difference.

 

Vacuum leak from a hose (which I plan on fixing)

 

Heat shield on the catalytic convertor rattles at idle.

Windows sometimes stick, but pushing the button gets them down (or back up).

 

The button you push in to move the gear shift comes out - the clip that holds it in broke. This does not affect moving it from gear to gear - it's just annoying.

 

Also have the Haynes manual and the 93-94 Ford CD to go with it.

 

Asking $400. Will also consider trades for Mustang parts that would work on a 99 Cobra (I'm really looking for an SCT XCal2), computer parts or bike parts that would fit a 2003 ZX-9. However, let me know what you have - sometimes there are things I need or want but forgot about.

 

edit: also looking for a welder and an air compressor - 15-25 gallons or so. I don't plan to be doing a ton of painting or body work, so it doesn't need to be huge

 

It's been a good car, but I haven't been driving it much recently so it's sitting a lot. Shitty weather would probably help, but I don't really NEED to have 4 vehicles.

Like I need another car :rolleyes:

 

Pics? BTW, I'm going through my computer shit and I have several boxes of stuff. I'll have a list up this weekend, but lemme know if you can think of anything you may need.

 

I'll try to get some pics tomorrow. I won't get home until after it is dark.

Doesn't look too bad. Got anything in mind PC or autotmotive related you're looking for in trade? I have a ton of stuff.

 

Mustang-wise, I'm REALLY looking for an XCal2. A new set of wheels and tires wouldn't be bad to replace my stock 17x8s. Let me know what you have though, like I said, sometimes I forget the kind of shit I'm looking for, or I didn't even know I wanted it.

 

PC-wise high-end, a 64-bit AMD and motherboard + memory and hard-drives.

 

Like I said an air-compressor or welder would be very useful.
