[quote=squat250]5 spd manual hatchback. coveted DX model. dog vomited only one time in back. mouse families have nested once in back under spare tire. comes with many bumperstickers included. has all glass windows. has minor rear and front damage. dents. roof vibrates at high speeds. no radio. has glove compartment AND ashtray. Silver but peeling. also the hatchback struts dont workso you can get guillotined if not careful. i use a vise pliers to hold it open. will show buyer how.
has had 3,000 in repairs over the last 18 months with receipts.
i was thinking of maybe ripping out all the upholstery and carpeting and removing all the seats and just installing one fancy leather racing drivers seat. gotta get rid of smell.
also wondering if a well written craigslist ad could become a viral internet sensation on this car…[/quote]
scaredy, do you have a passport? You could take it to TJ and have the interior ripped out and redone in carpet or vinyl floors; leather or pleather … what’s your pleasure? You might be surprised how little this costs in comparison to estimates from same types of companies in SD County!
If you would like have a referral to a good auto upholsterer in SD County, pm me and I may be able to help.
You can remove the bumper stickers with “Goo-Gone” and a single-edge razor knife or sharp scraper.
hint: After you get the interior redone and trunk relined, you don’t have to mention the dog’s mistake and the fmr mice nest in your craigslist ad :=]
Or maybe since it runs decent and has an authentic “5-spd overdrive” transmission, creechrr might take it off your hands and fix it up himself! These types of vehicles are hard to find today in your price range that run decent.
I drove a clutch up until ’92 and loved them. I kept trying to shift my Camry for over two years after that, lol :=0
