Versatility:

-Cleans up nice- a respectable looking vehicle with good bones and great lines,

feels current- As far as the upgrade possibilities-

the customizations I've seen online are sharp and slick!

This car can accept a Duratec DOHC V6 or V8 SHO Engine-

now seen on ebay for Cheap!

Some guy fitted his Sable with a 32 Valve V8 SHO Taurus Engine

It can be a good project sled to upgrade and customize- I've sourced and priced parts for this car from various parts vendors, and, for example, a used or rebuilt V4, V6 or V8 engine can be had for not as much as you'd think (if that's ever needed)

But it's also a good Family car that Seats Five, is Safe, and has Practical Features-

It has Austere Good Looks, Subtly Sophisticated in Black and has Room for your Life 

 

History:

-This Beautiful Sable has been garaged at night it's entire life, save for vacations and whatnot

The Interior of the car is Excellent. This was my Mom's car and she babied it

I've only had it since 2010, and the owner before her only put 16,000 on it

Regular maintenance has always been done, and we've kept all of the service records

I keep oiling and washing it and giving it love, but it's really not in use

It's only been sitting in my garage for several months.

My Mechanic has told me the seals need to be replaced to get compression back.

Repairs as follows can be made at intervals, to get the car up and running immediately.

The main issue is to replace the seals and keep the Engine from sputtering.

 

 

The Bad (your bargaining chips):

Known Issues:

1. -Two bits of Rust (One at the Trunk, near the chrome trim, and one at the crest of the wheel well on the driver's side rear wheel)

2. -Needs a General Electronic Module  (GEM - part around $100-250, Labor ? -and, according to the instructions, pretty easy)

The GEM controls the Stereo AM/FM Radio/CD Player, Clock, Speedometer and Odometer, which are currently not working because of it-

I have stopped driving it for this reason (regarding odometer reading- the GEM will reveal true Mileage)

- but the instruments technically work- it's simply the GEM that needs to be replaced*

3. -Cruise Control not engaging*

4. -One Rear Window not opening*

Rear Window Motor or some other issue may exist (unknown) The rest of the windows work fine

*(*asterik indicates these may be GEM issues, and might be restored after GEM is functioning –{unknown})

5. -Down the road, the front Brakes may need updating, and the drums are ugly, but functioning

6. -The compression is bad, needs Seals replaced, but it seems the engine is otherwise o.k., low miles

 

7. -Keep in mind this car isn't running right now, I've detached the battery!

-------> Arrange for Towing to your home or garage,

OR

maybe I can give you a free one way tow with my Auto Club to within 50 miles of the 91205 Zip Code.

- The insurance is still current and will be until the completion of sale. 

This is NOT a DMV Non-Operational, and has not been registered as such, as of yet.

The tags are good until April 2014.

This is a functional vehicle that needs someone to invest a little green for a lot of car in return.

 

 

Let's Deal!

 

This has been an exceptional car

We love the Sable, and All Ford Family Cars (we have another Ford),

It’s just that we can get by without a second car

It's a luxurious vehicle with a smooth, quiet ride and decent gas mileage, especially on the highway

It's a solid piece of American Steel and is safe and practical

It cleans up nice and has a nice get up and go on the freeway

It's in the garage and will remain there until the right buyer comes along

We're not desperate to sell, but we are open to offers, but no low-ballers, please

Make a reasonable offer and we'll let it go for the right buyer

 

I arrived at the $2000 because this car, minus the estimates for repairs, is in Really Decent Condition Overall.

 

Make an Offer!

 

Contact the email and I'll get back to you as soon as I see it.

 

Thanks for looking!
