A little bit about the car:

This is been a great car. It starts every time and runs smooth. No noises, squeeks, rattles, ect. Doors, trunk, rear shade & engine cover all open and close smoothly.

The original interior parts that have not been replaced are all in still very good condition. All the exterior stainless panels are in excellent condition. The tires all appear to be in "like new condition" but am unaware of the age of them. They are the correct size for the car. 195/60/14 front & 235/60/15 rear. Both matching brands and tread style.

None of the normal updates have been done to the car, ie: relays and fuses, front sway bars recall kit, stainless coolant bottle, or stainless clutch line.

None of these things have given me any issue thus far. But were in the plans to be done, therefore I feel it's worth a mention.

Forgot to take pictures of trunk and engine, but both very clean and stock appearence. Still has original spare tire, tool kit & trunk carpet. Air filter housing has new DMC sticker in stock location.




The bads:

Front fascia has some slight cracking in the paint on top from removing a bad eyebrow fix from PO. Still shows nice and can only see up close and at certain angles, but want to be honest. Also Fascia is not completely bolted back on yet (thats why it looks like it doesn't fit well in the pics) because I wanted to go back and do a proper eyebrow repair.

Very slight rust around edges of frame and bottom of lower cross-member were epoxy came off. Absolutely no rot at all and still very solid. I tried to include frame pics as best I could.

Drivers toll window has some slight scuffing from being off-track. Not bad at all, just want to mention. Forgot to take picture, but may be hard to photo anyway.

[Coulombe]

Is this car still for sale?

[DMCNY]

Is this car still for sale?

I can't believe the timing...I was going to start taking the front control arms out today when I got home from work to start getting them cleaned up and painted, and I was going to keep the car.

If you can let me know ASAP I will still sell it.

I'll send you an email to contact me.

[Roman Legion]

$17k.. I hope I can find one that nice in a year.. Very fine D!

Never got the email.

[DMCNY]

Sir, is your car still for sale? dan


Never got the email.

I sent the email through your profile page. Must be it doesn't work.

You can send me a PM through the forum if you'd like more info.

[Roman Legion]

You can always hold the car for me, until I get back.. :gunfire:

[A Van]

I know a guy in the UK looking if you will allow a shipper to collect?

[DMCNY]

Just to let everyone know who has inquired about the car, I have already started the steering/suspension restore. I had the car up for sale for quite a few weeks with no interest. I then dropped the price for quite a few weeks with no interest either.

At the very end, when I was on the fence about continuing to try and sell it or keep it and fix it up, I had a couple inquiries. But nothing ever materialized from it, so I decided to start taking it apart and fix it.

So as of now, the car is no longer for sale. I don't know if I can get a Moderator to delete the post or not to avoid any confusion.

Thank you all for your interest though.

[mattyparas]

Curious, are you located on Staten Island ? I just saw another Staten Island car go for sale up on ebay...If so, I had no idea there were so many on SI.

"Car is located in Queensbury, NY. Clean NY title. No liens. or accidents." <<< Nevermind :)

[DMCNY]

Back up for sale.

$20K.

[pezzonovante88]

Oh my God! If this could only have waited a few weeks! Perfect car, New York (close to border), right price! I'm sure it will sell before I'm ready to buy it :(

Weirdest for sale thread ever:hihi2:

[DMCNY]

Weirdest for sale thread ever:hihi2:

I know.

I'll simply put it this way. If someone wants to buy a great car for a nice price, here it is. If nobody does, my feelings won't be hurt.

I want to start my own business and selling the car would help that out a lot. I've just finally decided I want to pull the trigger on it.

Nice job on the front suspension restoration... man that's a clean car

Definitely worth the 20 you are in my opinion, if not more.

[Chris Burns]

WOW!:shock: Isn't that beautiful? Seriously you did a great job. That's good enough to be a Concours Car!
