1992 SHO 3.0 MTX white/black $600
Up for sale is my seventh, and probably last, 1992 SHO. I purchased this car about a year ago from another member here on the forum in slightly worse condition. Despite it's current condition where it's suffered my wrath via hammer the last time I worked on it, it had served me exceptionally well up until that point. The vehicle itself still runs and drives, and it does it just as well as it did when it was newer, I'm sure. The transmission shifts smoothly, and the engine most definitely pulls. The body, on the other hand, has suffered from a few things, including the aforementioned "hammer wrath." The driver's side door has a large enough gap in the seal to where you can see into the cabin, and there's typical rust beginning in the rear fender wells and just below the gas lid. Almost 200k and still tickin'.
Pros:
Interior could be rated at a 7 or 8 out of 10, at least. Though the car is a bit ugly, I took very good care of the interior. I always cleaned and conditioned all of the surfaces, including the full leather seats.
Still runs very strong, and is, remarkably, in one piece.
Comes with '95 knuckles and brakes up front.
Comes with a small handful of leftover parts, if interested!
Subframe recall kit on 3/4 of the mounts
Sunroof (pro if you like an exposed sky)
Never had any CEL's until the day my battery went kaput.
New front wheel bearings
Clear title in hand! (sorry, Tim)
Cons:
The driver's side door does not seal all the way, and you can peer into the cabin to see what kind of pants the driver is wearing. Think "Jeep."
Exterior has ten or so dings from the claw end of a hammer all around from a fit of blind rage when I my attempts to fix the gap in the driver's side door caused more damage to the fender.
Sunroof (con if you're a vampire)
Even though it never threw a CEL, it still threw codes. Mostly having to do with the o2's that need replaced.
Most definitely needs a tune up, as the gas mileage before parked was about 250 miles per tank. Terrible, from my experience. I'm also aware of the front main seal leaking.
Crack in windsheild.
Needs new tie rods and rear brakes.
Subframe is bent on passenger side from an accident.
Not too sure of rod bearing history.
Valve stem seals may need replaced, as I have noticed a tiny bit of blue in the exhaust when I had a friend start it up.
I had replaced a faulty EAC with one from a '95, but I think that caused the electronics to go funky, as the windsheild washer fluid motor stopped functioning, and the blower goes on maximum thrust when you actually turn the unit off.
I'm sure there's plenty of little things I could think of, but when I post updated pictures later tonight, I'll try and round them up. I know some of you may choose to critisize me for asking $500 for what may seem to be a Rolls Canardly, but I'm viewing it in the aspect that it is currently something that you CAN rely on/fix up/pull parts from. As mentioned before, it has done well and been incredibly reliable in a point in time where I was making 200 mile round trips every weekend for ten months straight, in addition to a 40 minute in-town drive five days out of the week. So serious offers are considered, but please don't waste my time with lowball offers or cheap forum banter. Though I know most everyone here proves this is definitely the kinder of all forums on the 'net! Thanks for looking.
