Forgot some items

I forgot to tell that it has BOSCH Euro headlights. I also replaced the climate control unit with a new one.

I have all receipts for parts and service done. An attorney owned it before me and kept it for 22 years. He had the same mechanic for 19 of those years. I bought it after he traded it for a Lexus. I have had it for three years and have put 50k miles on the car.

I will consider ANY OFFER OVER $1000.

Picture

I will try to post more pics tomorrow.

Oh yeah - I also replaced the oil cooler lines and it has a new brake master cylinder. I keep remembering things I did.

It does have the normal oil drips on the driveway. I have not had time to deal with them.

Interrior wood is in awesome condition. I changed the Power Steering fluid and filter regularly.

I think it has some life left.

car has not sold

No, car has not sold. No offers to date.

I am fixing the driver's door. Someone backed out of a parking space beside me with their door open and creased the door. It is ready to be painted with base coat clear coat. The paint on the rest of the car is in great shape.

The check strap in the driver door is popping. It has come unwelded on the inside of the firewall. I can rivet or spot weld if anyone has any ideas how to fix this.

These are the main issues I know of. The driver door was not badly damaged, but just had a crease all the way across it. I got tired of looking at it.

Also - I did replace the exhaust FLEX pipe with a new one. All exhaust hangers have been changed. I run diesel fuel treatment regularly and change both fuel filters regularly. Oil and fuel filters were just changed last week.

I purchased this car this past weekend. A friend and I drove from Melrose, Fl. to Rocky Mount N.C. to pick it up. I drove it 75-80 mph for 537 miles, and it is one tough car. What a pleasure to get what someone says you are getting. Rev. Will and his dad are *Five Star* people. They have the class and dignity that you want on this forum. Thanks for a pleasurable experience! Bill Bass

Thanks to everyone.

Kudos to hotrodrx. He is an upstanding person as well. Sorry wolf walker, I did not think to get up with you about the car!

Thanks to everyone on the site for all the help over the time of ownership. You were all a blessing.
