This car has 117k original miles, it's ice blue, blue interior, bucket seats, 5spd, p/s p/b rear defrost, tires have 60% tread left. There is very little rust, and if you know these cars that's a major issue, but not on this car.-The car gets an amazing 45MPG freeway and over 35 city. I drive it daily with no issues. However, it leaks oil and it's starting to smoke.-My price is negotiable but to a point I know this car is very reliable.

I have more pictures in my phone text me 614-962-1027

Im dubious of those mpg claims.. do you have more detail on how you're getting that number?

Looks like a good car, though!

GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE! Send me a PM, we gotta talk about this a bit.

I put $50 (12 gallons) last Fridays I've driven 479 miles on that tank its not empty but its close. A lot of this was city driving.

I can't believe nobody wants a super reliable car or even something to convert to a sleeper

Distance is a factor for me. I certainly like the car. But, i also already had a Tbi aries that i converted to 5 spd and then turbo, so in my case i would be leaving it TBI (and apparently getting 10 more mpg than my last tbi/5spd aries).

I just drive it very easy and its never had ac its not hard to aachieve

I'd LOVE to have it....can you please elaborate on the rust?

Are you using the old trick of drafting a semi just 5 feet back from it OR using the other often used grapple hook/cable combo that you hook up to the semi and let it take you for free? I've done it but there are inherent dangers to it. Ask me how I know.

Must.... resist... calling.

I use to get customers at the dealership tell me they would get 45 mpg all time.

Damnit I'll call later.

I tried to buy it and he stated he's going to keep it and put a different motor into it... :(

Ok, I'll not waste my time then.

I inadvertently told him how easy it is to get a turbo harness in an 88-89 aries.. :p
