Its a 95 white mark viii. The guy says it was running fine and overheated and now it turns over but wont start. Over heating should not prevent it from starting should it? If it was seized it wouldn't crank and if it cranks then it should start weather it was overheated or not, Right?
Could it just be a fuel cutoff or some switch that shuts the motor down when it over heats? I dont have any photos but I will on Sunday.
Stay tuned I may have some parts available for sale soon.
 
grille

I need a decent grill if the price is fair. Hopefully im the first to ask..i do have paypal as well
 
if its cranking its not seized. check for spark and fuel obviously. thats the only advice i can give ya.. There no cutoff for overheating but there is a fuel cutoff for when you get in a accident. its located in the trunk on the left ide next to the air ride switch. its red.
 
I don't even have it yet, but yes your first to get the grille IF I sell it Dave. I have yet to see this car so like I said Ill post for sale ads after I see the car and see whats available.
I have an idea for a custom grille so we'll see how that goes.
 
I got it.

I bought the car on Sunday and was able to take a good look at it. Its pretty much complete.
I should have everything available for sale next weekend, I was unable to tow it all the way to my house because we got caught up in a big snow storm.
Interior is whitish leather, All there except the piece behind the pull handle on the driver side. It is in ok shape but pretty dirty I'll clean it up when I get it home and post a couple pics.
I saw the air sensors up front but the rear has coil springs and no signs of air shocks. I'll check more when I get it home

What will not be available:
It has no sun roof!
Door handles - broke, one missing
Grille is broke - I may sell mine after I make a custom grille from this broken one, but thats a while out.
The trans is mine!!!
Radio bezel- already broken
No changer in trunk
Chrome trim above passenger front turn signal missing
No floor mats


What will be availble:
Pretty much everything else
All body panels are in decent shape, some small dings here and there but beer than a wrecked one.
headlights are fogged but not broken, Im going to polish them up before I sell so we'll see on those.
Taillights look good, but I didn't get a chance to ensure they work, of course I will before I sell them.
Front and rear bumper covers, truck lid and Hood all in good structual shape but bumpers would need new paint.
It has an owners manuel in the leather zipper case but it was in the trunk and sorta bent.
All switches and controls are assumed to be working so they will go up on sale.
The engine is complete but overheated and wont start. The front of the engine cover is gone but pretty much everything else will be availble from it.

I am waiting to post a for sale thread until I have the car closer to home so I can closy examine the condition of parts before I offer them.
If you have inquiry PM me and Ill let you know if its in good shape.
 
awesome i need the chrome trim over the driver side signal light, i have paypal, will you ship the part? how much for it?
 
I dont have the car at my house yet so I cant pull parts from it. I am going to wiat until next weekend before I post my for sale thread. In the meantime PM me with what your after and I'll keep you on the list of parts Ill yank when I get it here.
I'm checking prices on several items as well so I can sell for a fair price, your welcome to make offers in the pms but Im not qouting anything as of yet.
Thansk to everyone who has pm'd I'll check often and let you know your status.
 
Got it home

Well its finally here, we had some decent weather this weekend so I trailered it home.
I will respond to the PMs I've recieved and will post the car in the for sale section probably tomorrow after I get a few pics of it.
PM me in the meantime if there is something your interested in.
Thanks
