I have an illness...

Just picked up this mega clean 00 sport that was destined for the crusher...
Needs a new EGR valve as it's rusted right through and bounces around... there's also a fluid leak... either lower intake manifold or water pump gaskets... not too sure.

210k kms, 1 owner from new, no accidents, new tires, no rust, full service history.

Nice.
 












Good score; can't believe they were going to
crush one that looks that good.

The illness is contagious and there seems to
be no cure...:D:D:D
 






haha, I managed to get it for 30% of the asking price... which is also good, shouldn't take long to fix and I should make a nice little return on it, SAS/SOA funds :D

yeah, i've also got the disease. every time i see a clean one for sale cheap, i start to twitch.
 






That's a nice find Si.
Thank God my obsession with Second Gens isn't as bad as yours..
 






I've already got my feelers out for more... haha... It's a huge thrill to dicker on the price tag.. It gets my ticker going.. haha


Si
 






Very nice! Glad to see one saved from the scrap yard in the sky
 






Boy, you sure love your Sports! Nice find Si.
 






What no pickle Jr? Lol nice score!
 






If it were me Pickle would have a new hatch and hood courtesy of the new find:)
 






I have a new hatch for pickle in the basement... has some rust on it... and I can't be bothered.. lol. I have plans for the hood.. .waiting on parts from the UK.. ;)

I had a little look at her today - still got a pretty bad back, but, I can't sit still..

She's got 210k kms on her, needs an new EGR, but, it's rusty as all hell on the manifold, so I pulled off a manifold from another engine I have lying around (pickle's original lump)
I also put in some fluids.. I think it might just be a bad stat.. hopefully..

But, if it was a bad stat, would the temp gauge work?

Also has 4.10 gears, but no limited slip, decent wheels/tires... I'm excited to sell her

Also, the arm rest has rear cupholders... that may make its way into Trouble...

So what was the magic price?
 












$300? Holy crap...

I hate the prices in NM. :(

Good find, looks like a 3k dollar vehicle.
 












It's an 00, that's right...they go for more down here in Nm than up there...down here I cant find the worst piece of crap for less than 600 bucks...
