OK, now that I've got your attention, here is the bad news-- The auto
trans has (evidently) a major problem--it won't move in any of the
forward ranges. I've queried digesters, and the consensus seems to be
that the A -clutch pack is shot. This takes dropping the trans and either
repair or install rebuilt one. Or, convert to manual 5 sp. The rebuilt
or conversion route are both about $2000. Car is probably more valuable
with a 5sp. Either way, I'd just as soon not deal with it ( I'm too old
and wife wants a soft ride). The good news is this car is truly mint. It
is white with blue leather interior. It is difficult to tell from new.
97000 miles. Engine runs strong. The term "gorilla" is correct for this
model. The tool shelf in the trunk is even complete and pristine. It does
have trx tires but they are about 90%. If this kind of a project is what
you are looking for, believe me, after inspection you will not be
disappointed. Car is located in Naples Fl. Anyone interested- email me.
