Nonsmoking second owner since 1991.
Car has been driven only for exercise in the last two years, and has been maintained in road worthy condition. Battery maintainer charger, with periodic desulfation. If not driven, engine is turned over ever 30 days using kill switch described below.
Current inspection expires July, 2006
Always garaged
Synthetic oil since 1991
219K total miles
ENGINE: Custom engine overhaul 1997 at 177K
Had internals modified so that the cam would get the oil it needs. You will recall that this was a weakness when the car was new. O'haul included the water pump, distributor, CV joints. Retarded distributor allows it to run on regular gas.
Engine has kill switch to allow oil pressure to build up before the plugs fire. This has contributed to its long miles before and after o'haul,
Has many new parts. When a part needed replacement, only the best parts were used because of better reliability.
Battery, Sears Diehard in 2003.
Radiator, new in 2004
Alternator in 2000
Vacuum pump in 1999
Cat converter in 2002

A/C Has a high pressure valve kill switch. It kept failing every winter.
Converted to R-134a, but ran out of gas and compressor seized.
