2001 PT Cruiser 165,000 miles.


     This clean good running car developed a serious coolant leak on the passenger side of the engine, likely a water pump seal.  The previous owner had a deer collision witch left the hood dented, front grill cracked, windshield cracked and air conditioner compressor damaged.  Repairs included a new radiator,  and intake manifold.  The hood works but looks a bit rough.  
     The overall condition of the rest of the car is about what you would expect of a car with high mileage.  There are a few dings here and there, few rattles, and a little rust.  As you can see in the pictures.  The brake pads have been replaced recently and the brakes work, even though the rotors look a bit rough.  The battery is less than a year old and the interior is  exceptionally clean.  The stock radio was replaced.  
     This would be a good work car or beginner's car for someone with the mechanical ability to repair the leak.   With  the low starting price it would leave room for a mechanic to do the repairs and make a fair profit.

The Car needs to be picked up with  a trailer or car hauler.   Not driveable with out repairs.  Must Be Paid With Pay-Pal or Cash!!
Sold As Is with No Waranty!!

Six arrested from chop shop linked to Dream Cruise thefts

Sun, Sep 20 2015

The spirit of this year's Woodward Dream Cruise was dampened after a rash of car thefts were reported. The vehicles included a 1966 Chrysler 300 Deluxe, a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette, and a replica of the 1971 Chevrolet Camaro owned by the founder of Papa John's Pizza. While these thefts outraged the collector car community, that same tight-knit group is now breathing a sigh of relief, as those responsible are behind bars. Detroit Police arrested six people – three adults and three teens – on Thursday, September 17, in connection with a chop shop operation linked to the collector car thefts. According to The Detroit News, one suspect is still at large. There's concern among Dearborn police that the same group responsible for the Dream Cruise thefts boosted some vehicles from a Ford factory. While the Camaro was recovered mostly whole and found in a giant bush on Detroit's west side, the fate of the Corvette or Chrysler has not been made known. Here's hoping these classic cars make it back into their rightful owner's garages soon. News Source: The Detroit NewsImage Credit: Jerry S. Mendoza / AP Government/Legal Chrysler Classics

Minivan market not what it used to be, but margins make up for it

Thu, 05 Jun 2014



Residual values for last year's minivans are higher than they were in 2000.
Much like the station wagon was the shuttle of Baby Boomer generation, the minivan has been the primary means of transport for Generations X and Y. Just as the boomers abandoned the Country Squire, though, those kids that were toted around in Grand Caravans and Windstars are adults, and they certainly don't want to be seen in the cars their parents drove.

MotorWeek reviews '83 American Motors lineup

Wed, Mar 18 2015

The 30th anniversary of American Motors' 1987 sale to Chrysler by Renault is just a few years away. AMC is long dead, but for its latest peek in the archives, MotorWeek winds back the clock to somewhat happier times. Take a look at the entire AMC lineup from 1983, including its models from Jeep and Renault. The Jeeps, and to a lesser extent, the AMC Eagle, enjoy a cult following today, but it's amazing how many of these other vehicles are now practically forgotten. Even the big debut in '83 of the Renault Alliance is largely ignored. Although with a ludicrous amount of body roll and a 55-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, it's probably rightly buried.
