Selling or Wanted Price: $1000 obo
Up for sale is my 1988 Plymouth Reliant LE Sedan. It has a 2.2L fuel injected engine and a 3 speed automatic transmission. Right around 116,000 miles on it which is pretty low for the year. The car runs and drives really well. I put in a bunch of new parts... Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, pcv valve, air filter, throttle body gasket, vacuum lines, oxygen sensor, throttle position sensor, rear shocks, new front and rear speakers, hard to find bucket seats instead of the uncomfortable bench seat, luxury steering wheel instead of the base wheel, accessory belts, and I recently changed the oil too. It was our family car for a while so I wanted to make sure it didn't have any issues for us to use it. The tires are still in decent shape too. Suspension and steering are good. Inside is pretty clean besides the drooping headliner fabric. It drives nice on the highway and gets very reasonable gas mileage like upper 20's around town and lower 30's on the highway.
Issues with the car are the a/c does NOT work which is why I parked it when it got warm outside since I get horrible heat sickness. Since it's been sitting for a few months now the brakes are a bit rusty but that'll clear up on it's own with some driving. Also, the rear driver side window regulator is messed up so the window just stays up. There IS a 89 Aries at LKQ I believe so a used good regulator can be had from there for like $20 or so. It has some rust on the rockers and so forth... it is old... but overall it's in pretty damn good shape for it's age.
Like I said, the car runs awesome. I was just going to use it for a cool/cold weather vehicle since I didn't want to bother with figuring out what's wrong with the air conditioner. However, because of the bad storm we had a few days ago my Grand Caravan C/V and Camry got crushed by a tree and it's not covered under my insurance so I'm selling pretty much everything I can to help fund getting them fixed since I also lost my income. Not too many good times around these parts. Anyway, I'm looking for $1000 out of the car which I feel isn't bad at all for something that you can just get in and drive to wherever you want to go. Thing is very comfortable too with those bucket seats which are also an extremely hard to find upgrade for these. Please call or text me at 815-980-eight nine six zero. Thanks for your time!
