Thats right folks, a running and driving car for just $500! Its just outside Philly so its perfect for a last minute fly & drive for a BABE rally team looking to add a car or chickening out on the craptastic one that have now.
Its a black on black '94.SAAB 9000 with 250k miles. Non turbo engine with 5 spd manual gearbox. The gear box is good and the clutch is about 2 years old. The fuel pump was also replaced about 2 years ago with a new oem part. The AC works. The body is great looking from 25 feet. Its been our daily driver for about 5 years, its been dependable and hasn't cost us a lit if money to keep it going. But......now its pretty used up and we have a better car now so this one needs to get off my car ins policy!
There is rust in both rear wheel wells in the inner sections. It consumes a lot of oil, it doesn't smoke at all, and the slow but steady leak at the front crank seal doesn't seem to explain where it all goes, but its going somewhere . The interior is dirty and beat up. It eats tail light bulbs. The reverse light switch in the gearbox works only when it feels like it (reverse gear is fine). Its slow and has remarkably bad fuel milage for a 4cyl.
The single biggest problem with this car is that the drivers side upper shock mount is completely broken. Its fixable, but I don't feel like doing it myself. If someone really wanted to make a great repair I could obtain a doner shock mount & pass it along with the car at whatever its costs to me. Or you could go crazy with angle iron and scrap sheet metal and probably make something stronger than the original if your good at that sort of thing.
