I hate doing this kind of thing, I'd prefer to finish it, but I'm headed back to school soon. So, I'm selling a project car. I'm located in Northern Delaware. More specifically, Claymont, Delaware. If you're in the area, please feel free to either post here, or email me to setup a time to see the car.
The Satellite is a 4-Door in great condition. There are 2 rust spots that I've found, and I've been all over this car searching hard. One spot is above the passenger side rear wheel well, and the other is the trunk floor. Both spots are easily patched.
The engine is a completely rebuilt 318, and the transmission is a 3 speed, also rebuilt. The drive train has a few thousand invested in it, and it runs strong and shifts smooth. The exhaust is in great condition, and the headers really showcase how powerful the engine is.
The interior is in pretty decent condition, but it does need a new dash cover. Apparently the original owner thought that a cracked dash cover means you should pull the whole thing off and not replace it. It sucks, but you can find these covers on ebay, so not a huge deal.
The headlight bezels are cracked in a few spots, but I did purchase a new set from someone parting out the same model. The new ones are in perfect condition, and will come with the car. There's also a car cover, not that it's worth much, but you can still have it.
Onto the real bad stuff. The electrical is funky. When I picked up the car the electrical seemed to work. I replaced the burnt out bulbs, cleaned up some dirty connections and replaced frayed wires. I took it down for inspection and suddenly the electrical stopped working correctly. Now the windshield wipers and side marker lights only work when the high beams are on. I'm told this is a fairly easy fix, but I don't have the time to invest in it. The windshield wipers and side markers are the only reason the car didn't pass Delaware inspection.
I think I pretty much covered it all. If you have any questions, please let me know. I'll be posting pictures (hopefully) today. My brother is borrowing my digital camera, so I have to wait for him to get home from work.
I'd love to get about $2,500 out of it, but I'll take what I can get. As to my knowledge, this isn't a very common car on the road. I've been to a lot of car shows, and I can only recall ever seeing 2 or 3 of these models. If my asking price is a bit high, please let me know. If you think it's too low, then don't tell me and get yourself a deal.
Please, either post your questions and comments here, or email me at [email protected].
