I'm getting ready to place ads. I just have to get the stock front bumper assembled and installed. Here's the skinny so far:

The car has 240,000 miles on it and the motor has never been out. I have receipts from all the previous owners. It's a CA car, never been out of state.

Right now it has Bilstein Sports and is pretty low (I didn't do that). Shifts great, drives straight. I have pads to put on but the pads on it are not that worn. All the windows are tinted and the pass side is scratched. That's the biggest interior problem.

Overall, it's clean and very nice at a few feet, as they say. Since it was my mule for my bumper project, all the parts being reinstalled are newly painted. A lot of people get excited when they see it thinking it's such a clean car. You have to own it to know where the flaws are.

I know the receipts show the new clutch. They also show a new distributor and I think new rear axles. I'll have to look. The A/C is disconnected. Front tires are gone, rears are 70%. I'm looking for some fronts; Toyo Proxes T1-S 205/55/16. Found one in NY, but I need 2 whether I keep it or sell it. (or maybe not as I would certainly add the price of the replacement tires.

I did buy the tags which were due this month. I still have to smog the car. Last time it did very well. I'll take it down when I can and I expect it will pass and be good for 2 more years in CA. Anyway, fees are paid up until Oct 2011.
