Bad part of the '90 is the stupid door mounted seatbelts. HATED those things. I see it also has the same primer oxidation on the hood that my 89 had. the primer cracked under the paint.

I wonder how pissed the wife would be about purchasing this for a 5.3/4L60 swap?

Only 122k miles? I thought these things were beat on until 300-400k.

As a taxi, yes. As a police car, most were retired around the 100k mark.

True story. But think about the time idling.

HAve you seen the size of the oil/trans coolers and the radiator in one of those old bricks? Plus, you know that even though they idled a lot, they A.) got regular service and 2.) got the cobwebs blown out likely daily.

EDIT: Now that I think back, I am pretty sure the engine oil cooler on my 89 9C1 was larger than the radiator in the Swift.
