Re: [MBZ] the engine of these cars will last up to 500,000

2018-08-16 Thread Mitch Haley via Mercedes
Back in the 1980s, my brother used to say if it's worth having, it'll cost four 
digits. 
My $200 Honda Civic and $435 Chevy Citation were the exceptions to that rule, 
and the Honda was even reasonably good looking when I bought it (but the 
transmission was on the way out).

Anybody want a rare stick shift 2007 Saturn Ion2, everything works, last year 
of production?
If a list member buys it for $1500, I'll throw in a practically new set of 
Pirelli Winter Cinturatos on 15" Ion/Cobalt 4 bolt rims.

2018-08-16 Thread Mitch Haley via Mercedes
My 90hp 1980 Citation could still smoke the front tires at 208,000 miles in 
1989 when the 1-2 shift fork finally broke and the car was too rusty to be 
worth a day's work pulling the transmission out. Used whatever oil and filters 
Firestone put in it for the first 145k, whatever was on sale the cheapest after 
I bought it. 
Since then I expect engines to last the life of the car, especially with fuel 
injection. 

Mitch.

I don't think thats a crack price, its hard to find anything running/driving 
for under $2000 anymore. I'd think $3k wouldn't be unreasonable.

"Slight rust"  [with pictures of the ground, taken through the holes in
floor."

"Flood car"

"Some wind damage"

"One owner"  [picture of car parked 55 yrs ago and a tree growing through
the engine bay, or the roof.]

I'm sure between us all, we could do a write up that would become a classic.
