New SVX in MD...
Hey ~ I just got an SVX and have been checking out the forum for a few days. Got it on ebay pretty cheap - good thing - because I'll be dumping some dough into it to even get past MD inspection!
Rear brake pads and rotors - FAILED (not too expensive tho)
Battery hold down - FAILED (missing completely-luckily I found it in the trunk)
Trans mounts - FAILED - (don't know how much they are)
CV boots - FAILED - (that might be pricey)
The inspection guy was like "Oh, by the way, the transmission is on it's deathbed." This, however, I've expected. New automatic or manual conv.? Hmmmmmmmm......?
Going to email the ebay seller just to let him know he needs to examine his vehicles more carefully before he ads them as "mint" and SUPRISE! he's no longer a registered member of ebay - less than 3 days after I paid for the car. Annoying - yes, but I LOVE THIS CAR! The interior is pristine and all the gadgety bits work. I pulled about 15lbs of 90's cell phone wiring/boxes and crap out of this thing!
I'll probably take it to the drag strip once just to see what kind of time it pulls, then autocross it a bit, but no wings, stickers or body kits for this baby. All black - black wheels and the darkest tint I can get without getting pulled over.
Anyway, here it is...have a look at this kid in it's primal condition. Anyone else in MD/South Central PA out there?
