Comments about the car: I bought this car in October 2010 and it has been under a car cover, under a carport since. Prior to this is was owned by svxxx26 since May, 1996. Always garaged while he owned it and, to his knowledge, was always garaged since new.

The interior is in new condition. The wear that is noticeable at all is on the driver's seat, and it is no more than well broken in - no rips or tears. Carpeting is like new, always protected. Rear seat has rarely been used. The original radio/cassette was replaced with a 6-disk unit from an Outback. There is no rust anywhere - the car was only driven in winter once and may have been exposed to salt a few times since and always well-flushed each time.

All fluids have been changed regularly. The oil has been changed more often than necessary and I have used Mobil 1 5W30 only. Likewise the front/rear diffs have Mobil 1 75W90. Paint condition is very good to excellent. There was some damage to the front fender and it was replaced and the hood wand upper half of the passenger door repainted by previous owner. The paint matches as perfectly as is possible. A few small dents were removed after I bought it.

Of course there are a few small nicks and chips here and there, a small scratch on the windshield from grit getting under the wiper. as with any car that is driven on the road but overall the look is like new.

Svxfiles installed the 4:44 transmission after the original started having issues in March 2007. It had just over 60,000 on the odometer then. He also did the "$15.00/15-minute mod" and installed a modified dropping resistor (firmer shifts). Adjusted mileage due to gear ration difference is about 78,500.
I had a rebuilt power steering pump installed in November 2010. Tie rod ends replaced May 2011.

I would say that this is probably one of the better 1992 SVXs you will find anywhere. I know I have done as much as I could to keep it in like new condition.

Asking price: $4,900.00
