Considering Selling My 164 S



I am moving from my house in the San Francisco Bay Area to an apartment
building in Santa Monica, so I am considering selling my red 1992 164 S,
since I wont have a garage to work in. The car has had the following done:
New S cams 30K miles ago, adjustable Konis, Weitec lowering springs, braided
steel brake lines, new clutch master and slave, new brake master, Mintex
pads with 50 percent life left, clutch replaced, custom weighted shift knob
with shortened shaft, fresh reaction rod bearing, Magnecore spark plug
wires, new motor mounts, all poly front bushings, entire rear suspension
replaced last month, brand new radiator and lower and upper hoses, 14 inch
high flow electric fan, Cool Control adjustable temperature fan turn on
system, five 17 inch Fittipaldi Avus wheels with 215/45/17 Sumitomo HTRZ II
tires, K & N air filter, new fuel filter, Bosch Platinum +4 plugs and new
fuel filler pipe assembly, cat back Stebro single tip stainless steel
exhaust with eight month old custom free flow cat. Timing belt, mechanical
detensioner, water pump and all other belts changed every 30K miles.
Maintained by Larry Buskirk. The hood, mirrors, rear spoiler and gray lower
cladding were repainted. The rest of the paint is in good condition, but has
some minor fade. Stoneguard protectors on headlights, fog lamps, hood and
mirrors. No stone chips on front of car. I have reams of repair bills for
the car beyond the above as well as a clean Carfax. Very fast and solid.
Runs extremely well. Originally an Atlanta car, then California, so no salt
or winters. Lightweight Noah car cover included. Many parts. Has around 126K
miles.

Problem areas- Stepper is bad. I have a complete stepper unit with metal
gears for the car, but I do not have the time to do the repair myself. The
AC blows cold. I have the DIY Alfa stepper replacement video, parts CD and
CarDisc manuals too. Intermittent flashing of the brake warning lights which
I traced to a bad sensor wire in one of the front Mintex pads after
replacing every sensor and relay in the system. Uses approximately one quart
of 20w 50 dino oil every month or sooner if driven very hard. Passes CA smog
test. Im looking to get $8750 for the car. This is a well-known 164 S in
the Bay Area that has been on the green at Concorso Italiano for the last
four years. Contact me at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
or [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> , if there is any interest.
Prefer local California buyer.
