It has been a sad week for me here in Maryland. After coming to a stop on the interstate because of a traffic jam, I was rear ended by a dodge ram and shoved into the car in front of me. Today, my svx was declared a total loss. The highest bid by a salvage shop was $650. I'm posting here because I'd rather a fellow svx lover have first dibs on the car, or any of its major components. If I had more time and mechanical know-how, I would part this one out myself. So I'm offering the entire car, as-is for $650. Unfortunately I think I'll need an answer (or a serious inquiry) within a week or I'll have to let it go. Here are some details on the car....
It is an all original '92 dark teal LS-L with 167,062 miles
Engine, etc: ran well (8 on scale of 1-10)
new spark plugs, seals all around, timing belt, alternator in last 15,000 miles
Transmission: slipped in 3rd and 4th under light throttle for past 2 years, never got worse. always shifted perfectly other than that.
Interior: Much better than average seats, panels, accessories, etc. carpet/floor mats are in average shape.
Exterior: see attached pictures
Wheels/tires: the wheels are in decent shape, with some paint peeling, the tires would last awhile longer but could use replacing.
All electronics and accessories worked fine, including a remote start
A note to supplement the pictures: as you can tell the passenger side rear body panels were damaged, but the driver's side was not affected (both doors are unaffected as well). I thought you might like to see the license plate meets exhaust pipe picture too.
If it isn't obvious from the pictures, the car can not be started at the moment. The radiator was damaged and some hoses were torn, so the remaining coolant (the reserve tank is full) would be pumped out if the engine were run. Also, the radiator is obstructing the accessory belt's movement.
Other than that, take a look at the pictures and let me know what you think.
A lot were just over 1MB and couldn't be added, but you get the idea.
