Runs great, drives great, tracks straight, Auto Tragic(automatic)shifts like buttah, driven daily. Interior is amazing. No strut tower rust at all.HERE'S THE STORY:Moved into town, saw it sitting in neighbors yard who said been sitting since July 2017, his dad did all kinds of work to it, and but failed inspection for 1) Rear struts and assembly were rusted and 2). 1 of 3 of gas tank straps was rusted through.

LOL homemade, and it passed inspection.The BAD:A/C works well, only holds charge for 3-5 days.-cruise control inop-odometer/trip inop, previous owner stated worm gear popped out ..again. wtf.rear quarters need attention. I actually scraped out a bunch of bondo so the next owner can see what's up. I have and had no intention of fixing it. PASSED Inspection.starter solenoid on its way out, works most of the time. starter itself is fine, but when the solenoid gets hot, have to wait for it to cool sometimes or jump. Only had to wait twice at H20 and 1 quick jump as battery/alt/charging system is new. New starter and solenoid is $65 on Amazon.BUY IT, BOOST IT, SWAP IT, SEND IT!!!!610-297-1190
