Vehicle description
THIS IS A VERY GOOD PROSPECT FOR RESTORATION. SOLD NEW IN CHARLOTTE NC, AND HAS REMAINED HERE IN NC ALL IT"S LIFE. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TITLE WITH 45 MILES ON IT, ISSUED ON 12/31/87
IT IS A 99% RUST FREE, ONE OWNER CAR WITH MINOR DOOR DINGS, COMPLETE EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR TRIM. IT RUNS AND DRIVES, HANDLES GOOD, AND SHIFTS SMOOTH. THE CAR HAD SOME YEARS AGO A FUEL PUMP ISSUE, AND THE OWNER DECIDED TO DONATE IT TO A CHARITY FOR SALE, AND WAS PURCHASED, BUT NEVER REPAIRED. BEING A JAG LOVER, AND SEEING IT SITTING FOR YEARS JUST HAD TO RESCUE IT. IT WAS OBVIOUS IT HAD A FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE AS IT WAS ALL APART IN THE TRUNK, AS THE PICTURE SHOWS.
I FLUSHED THE TANKS AND GOT IT RUNNING WITH A TEMPORARY PUMP AND CLEAR FILTER TO MAKE SURE THE SYSTEM WAS FUNCTIONAL. ALSO, THE TANKS HAD SOME EXTERNAL RUST SO THEY WERE REPAIRED WITH A FIBERGLASS MATT. I BELIEVE I MIGHT KNOW OF SOME TANKS AVAILABLE THAT CAN POSSIBLY BE SOLD WITH THE CAR FOR ANY FUTURE UPDATES. I HAVE A NEW FUEL SYSTEM GOING IN PLACE OF THE FACTORY PUMP ETC. AND WILL HAVE IT COMPLETE BEFORE PICK-UP.
AFTER CHECKING IT ALL OUT, CHANGING THE OIL ETC. AND GETTING IT RUNNING AND DRIVING I SEE THE NEED FOR FRONT SHOCK REPLACEMENT AS THEY RATTLE FROM SITTING FOR SOME TIME. THEY WILL BE REPLACED. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED SOME YEARS AGO AND NEVER DRIVEN BUT HAVE AGE. IF I DIDN"T HAVE 12 CAR PROJECTS GOING ON, THIS ONE I WOULD LOVE TO KEEP, AS IT"S JUST A BIT DIFFERENT THAN MOST IN COLOR. THE INTERIOR HAD DEGRADED FROM SITTING BUT IS ALL THERE, ALL BUT THE PASS SIDE FRONT WINDOW WORK. THE DASH WOOD IS DE-LAMINATING THE CLEAR AS THESE ALWAYS SEEM TO DO AND NEEDS RESTORATION, BUT EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE USABLE. THIS COULD BE DELIVERED IF WITHING 100 MILES FOR A VERY LOW FEE.
