Description of 1990 Mitsubishi Montero |
I hate to see it go, but I just don't have the time to put the work into it to restore it the way it deserves, so I'm letting it go for a steal to a new owner who will treat it right. Just moved into a new house and this won't fit in the new garage, so instead of letting it sit outside I'd like to see it go to someone to knows about these great old SUVs and will take good care of it. If you don't know what this SUV is right away, you're probably not the right buyer. If you do, you'll know how rare and wonderful these old rides are. They absolutely do not make them like they used to. I've owned and adored several "1st Gens" and this one is a nice example. That said, it needs work. The timing belt has not been done, it will need tires soon, and the engine needs maintenance. Other Monteros have sold for $5,500 on ebay recently with all of that work done, so I'm asking a price that factors in the assumption that to make this a great daily driver that will last another 25 years you will need to put a few thousand dollars into it. The bones are good but this is a project car. If you know anything about these rigs you know they are built like tanks. You can either drive it like it is, and it would make a great daily driver or weekend warrior into the woods/mountains, or if you were to invest a little money into it this could be a very desirable and attractive SUV. Everyone loves the boxy shape and most folks who aren't familiar with it asks me if it's an old Range Rover. I just completed a 600 mile road-trip and it ran as smooth as a brand new SUV. Tires are in good shape with a brand new spare on the back. OFF Road or Family Use, Ice Cold AC, Runs excellent, very reliable car, excellent transportation. Has a factory trailer hitch that hasn't been used more than a handful of times, so it looks and is practically new. Has a modern stereo installed with an input jack and remote, but I also havethe original radio that will come with the car. The drivers side seatbelt is starting to fray. It still works fine but is frayed a little. The ignition switch is a little sticky, but works fine. I'd probably replace it eventually or have someone clean it out if I were keeping it. There is a security system installed from the 90's. My wife got tired of hearing it, so I took out the speaker. I'll include that in the sale so if you want to have it functional again you just need to re-attach the 2 wires under the hood and screw in the speaker. It's a motion/proximity sensor and actually talks! It says thingslike, "Proximity alert, step back from the vehicle!" I thought it was pretty cool, and again it functions and I have two keyfobs that work with it. You can either take out the whole thing, leave it as is, or attach the speaker again and it'll work like it used to. |
