Classic Car Overview
Sure it's not a perfect car cosmetically, so it could use a little body work/paint, but its a beauty to drive and all the robust sport 5-speed feeling, its ready to go anytime anywhere.
The 3.4-liter M30B34 inline-six was factory-rated at 182 horsepower and 213 lb-ft of torque. It has been tuned up a couple times and oil/filter changes yearly. It has been driven only about 1,000 miles per year; some maintenance items include Ive done are;
* the usual plugs, fuel filter, rotor, ignition wire set, air filter
* the battery was replaced in 2022 and added on/off switch
* new mufflers & cat. converter done
* replaced fuel tank
* sway bar
* breaks / break pads
* pitman arm
* clutch assembly and clutch slave
* water pumps and belts
* R&R tie assembly & alignment
* 2025 fully inspected
Some things on the list to follow up on are, onboard computer that stopped working last year that probably just changing out the LED screen/bulbs. The dashboard has the notorious cracks that are common with these older models. The speedometer works fine but the tachometer
stop working along with the odometer about 5 years ago -I suspect after 37 years those little plastic gears/bushing inside need replacing. The coolant temperature and fuel level gauge work as it should.
The front left fender was damaged by someone backing into it and had to be changed, but the paint job was not matched properly to the car. This would be corrected once the other areas with some rust are taking care of. I just didnt get it being involved in other car projects.
PLEASE don't waste my time with your stories about why you can't see the car and want to buy it above asking price with my bank information to make direct transfer...without even asking anything about the car..... and no car dealers either trying to buy it at discount so they can flip it.
