Hi all, I am building a garage and need this to go away. I would love to sell it as is but will part it if it doesn't sell after a week or two.
This car has its problems but can be saved. Car is in Cincinnati OH.

It is a very low mileage example because it has sat since 1999. It now has 79,000 miles but the time has taken its toll on a few things.
The fuel system was totally destroyed but I have replaced the gas tank, fuel pump, fuel filter and now everything flows to the injectors. I broke one injector taking them out to bleed the old gas out of the lines though.
I've replaced the starter and fuel pump relay and now the car turns over from the key and will start with starter fluid.
The clutch and brake pedals are both solid. I would assume they both need new cylinders and a bleed.
Other than that, The car "should" be drivable.

Some pics:

As you can see, the body is straight and dent free other than a small dent on the PS front fender (visible in the first pic). As you can also see, it has been the victim of a very poor respray.

I have my tornado euro bumper on it now with b3 one piece headlights.

The Engine is all there but has been drained of antifreeze. I changed the oil before trying to start it a few weeks ago. Something led the previous owner to take the alternator and PS belts off and I don't know why.

The interior has been the victim of some sun damage. the dash is shrunk and rough. The seats are actually in pretty good shape. There are scratches but no real tears other than the backside of the PS seat (which my dumb-ass did this weekend). The seats are NOT heated strangely. I haven't seen non-heated seats in these cars before.

Here's some pics of the interior when I got it, I have it disassembled now.

I've replaced the broken screen on the trip computer already.

For a while the car had some electrical gremlins that I've attributed to water being in the car at some point (it is bone dry now and does not leak water inside) After replacing all the corroded fuses and cleaning the relay contacts I feel like everything is working right - but I don't know for sure.

I've tried to be as honest as possible about it. This is a small community and I don't want anyone buying this without the benefit of my work thus far. I'll have it for sale as is for a week or two and then I'll part it if there's no interest.

I really wish I had the funds to snag this from you. I hope someone picks it up as a whole, and you don't part it out. GLWS.
