RUNNING parts car.

1989 Blue on Blue Hardtop with black trim
165,000 miles

Located in California, will deliver anywhere in the USA/Canada for cost of round-trip. Still a reliable car, drives well and was daily driver. No known accidents, some dents here and there from parking lot encounters. Registered until May, 2011. After May it will go on non-op.

I purchased the car in December 2005 with 117,000 miles on it.

The GOOD:

Factory-Spec everything, no mods.
Runs, drives, barely uses/leaks oil, 20K on rebuilt transmission
Minimal/no rust
Windows, mirrors, locks, seats, antenna all work as do their switches
Taillight lens uncracked
Goodyear tires matching, were $500 new, much life left
Pink Slip (Title) on hand, clear title
A/C and climate work perfectly, replaced by previous owner ~ 2003-4, converted to R134a
Recovered headliner (~2003-04) looks like new
Just under 2 years on 3-year battery still holds perfect charge
LCD display works fine
Original Owner's Manual with emblemed leather cover

* I also have the GM 1989 Service Manual for Reatta/Riveria


The BAD:

Check Engine Light Codes: 23, 26, 41
Front windshield severely cracked and severe leak
passenger door panel well worn
some moisture damage to carpets from leak
Touchscreen turns on, but no picture. touch still works
Radio and tape not working, tape does eject, no speakers
Passenger's headlight motor broken (the motor was dropped and split in half, might be fixable), driver's still works beautifully

It is in good enough condition to drive long distance which is why I am willing to deliver it for a cost. Car is not offered with a SMOG certificate, and is not legal for road use due to windshield.

Feel free to contact with any questions, and to make an offer.
