1999 Chevrolet Lumina LTZ.

204,XXX miles on the body. 60K miles on a Jasper crate motor. (3.8 series II) Engine runs fantastic. Would be great for for an engine swap. Engine/ wiring and all that. (new ECU/ MAF) Build your own Locost or Brunton super stalker

Here is the low down:

  • My brother spun it and hit a mailbox pole and there is a giant dent in the door and some on the rocker panel. Sounds like a horrible accident but at least he missed the phone pole. still drives fine no frame damage.

  • More recently we found that the rear strut towers are rusted very bad and on the passenger side rear the tower is starting to tear! So its gonna break soon in other words.

We have owned this car since June 2006 and have done all the work on it ourselves.EVERY single receipt is available for the car.

IT IS DRIVEABLE!

Interior looks nice and we would have kept the car for longer had the strut towers not rusted.

I can sell it three ways:

1) One sell wheels and tires. Tires are BRAND NEW Cooper CS-4 tires that we just bought and installed. $400 BUT make me any good offer and they are pretty much yours. Wheels clean up nice.

2) Sell whole car minus wheels and tires. $600 make offer

3) Sell the COMPLETE car. $750 Make offer

Lemme know. I can deliver for price of gas and some beer.

PM or email me. I want this car gone realllly soon. Clean title ready to go. Make offers

Thanks

eww nasty. next time i go outside i will pop the trunk and take a look at her car, it's here awaiting at least a steering rack, and see how bad it looks to fix that area. i think it is a problem with them as hers is similar but more along the lines of your good side pic.

send me a text later so i can put you back in my phone, stupid iphone deleted all my stuff when i updated and could not restore even thought i backed it all up.

Maybe its because i live in rust free GA, but how does a car rust in a place like that? Does water leak into the trunk or something? Its like the car made up its mind that it would rust in one of the few places that could make it into a doorstop because the car does not look that rusty elsewhere.

road salt splashes up into seams and sits there, eating away at things.

im going to pass. worst case you get $400 for it in scrap, or post it on w-body.com someone might want a 3800 donor. or a fiero.

You'll need to log in to post.
