    Will be taking pictures tomorrow - have to work out of town today.

    Before I forget, the driver's window switch sticks, then the motor trips out and you have to wait for it to cool before the window goes back up. That is, if you don't check the switch after you use it.

    I also have the camshaft "tool" and TDC pin from OTC, a spare coil pack, front wheel bearing and axle seal, pair of energy suspension motor mount inserts and I'm sure I have some other stuff I'm forgetting.

    I know it's a pain to import a canadian vehicle into the U.S., but how hard is it re-import a U.S. vehicle?

    Well, it is compliant, but I'm sure they'll make you pay the tax on it AGAIN.

    All of the original Smog stuff is intact and it just passed a "drive clean" a year ago.

    Here's the ad on Kijiji

    Just dropped the price in the ad to $750.

    I need the space and one less insurance bill more than anything else.

    rear main weeps and it's 15000 miles away from needing a timing belt - but the cam alignment tools are included.

    This kijiji thing is an interesting experience...

    That just has to sell quickly at that price. It would already be gone if you were half the distance away that you are.

    With the possible stuck caliper, is it unable to drive?

    If I can drive this thing back home, I'd be tempted. If I gotta tow it, not so much.

    In reply to Racer1ab:

    still drives fine but when you do brake, it makes a "rik-rik-rik-rik-rik" noise. I have changed the pads and rotors, but the sound persists.

    And it's gone!

    I'm very happy that it went to another car loving family with the wherewithal to make something of it.
