85 MR2 w/ JDM 4age Redtop swap SoCal
Vehicle Location: Los Angeles, CA
Vehicle Price: 800obo
Vehicle Odometer: 117k 225k

Silver ext. with Black int.
117,xxx (224,xxx on chassis)
5spd
manual windows
manual locks

The car can drive alright, but the engine will need some work on it.
I believe the engine mileage is around 117k miles as it shows on the
odometer, but I have carfaxed the car before and it has around 220k
on the chassis before the swap. One interesting thing about the car
is that its chassis code is AW10; from what I'm told that it is the
lightest model than even the 86 hardtop because it does not have
reinforced doors.

I've done some work on the car, but I know more work needs to be
put in the car to keep it running stronger in the long run.
I've replaced the starter, alternator, kept up with oil changes using
Fully Synthetic Mobil1 10w-40 oil, I've replaced the parking brake cable
with a working one. Also have extra parts that I'll throw in for the sake
of getting rid of old parts. The car has a black trunk, black engine lid,
and black wings on it. I still have the original silver engine lid and
wingless trunk lid that came with the car.

Some bad stuff:
The car has a scrape run that goes into the driver side quarter panel.
It's not too deep and is noticeable, but isn't horrible damage.
The driver side fender has been bent in as a result of a stupid driver
who doesn't know how to park bumping into my parked car. It didn't get
to structural damage, only the fender itself is bent.
The engine is somewhat funky. You can still drive it ok and it still pushes
real hard, but the idle drops sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I've been
told it's a vacuum leak. I've got the tubings for it but never got to fixing it.
The brakes will have to be changed soon, and I already got the front brakes
for it, but I didn't get around to changing that neither.


I'm asking around 800dollars for the car.
I need this car gone soon, so I'm open to reasonable offers as well.
Lower a little.

Feel free to text my cell phone for questions on the car. If you'd like to call, sometime between 3pm-6pm at night would be good.

p.s.
Link to some photos of the car.
