Sold the car tonight (4-3-09). I appreciate the space on the forum.
Selling my 1991 Galant VR4 (1320/2000). I have owned this car for approximately the last 8 years and put the last 100k miles on it. I only discovered this site a few months ago and wished I knew of it's existence earlier. With the age and miles on the car, there have been repairs but no modifications since my mechanical abilities are limited. This has been my only car since buying it - a true daily driver. If you have any questions about the car, please post and not PM, so others can see my responses. Feel free to PM me about seeing the car in person - available most weekdays after 5:30pm.
Title: Clean title as far as I know - bought it from family friend (if someone has the unlimited Carfax option, I can give you the VIN and then make the title available)
Miles: 178,000
Mods: None
Includes stereo system
Equipped snow tires (sorry, summer tires were junked)
Recent Maintenance:
New Battery - 1 month ago
Idle Air Control Motor - 2 months ago
Radiator - 1 year ago
Clutch - 1 year ago
New exhaust - year old
Transmission - original and still feels good
Engine - timing belt broke (when there was 35k on the belt) valves replaced and bored
Interior - very good condition (one seam in drivers seat starting to separate)
AC worked last summer, have not tried it this year
Known Issues:
-ECU had capacitors leak - it was salvaged and have been using it for 4 years (toggle switch controls power to ECU to keep the battery charged - custom anti-theft device right?)
-Engine idles high for first 2 minutes of driving and then idles fine after that (cannot find issue)
-Rear brakes will need to be replaced soon (no noise)
-Driver side rear wheel bearing has movement (no noise)
-Parking brake is disconnected (seized every new caliper I bought)
-Cruise control does not work (could not locate rubber vacuum seal part)
-Uses 1 quart oil every 2,000 miles - does not leak oil
