While out tooling around, I saw a White '91 LX in the WalMart parking lot with a For Sale sign on it for 800 smacks.. Didnt look too bad on the outside. The passenger clear corner is cracked. So close to a good set. (Clear corner/turn signal lenses are a '91 only thing and finding an intact set is like trying to find a needle in a haystack) Took a look under it and found it had no exhaust. It was torched off under the rear seat area (After the Y-pipe; Why?) The rear shocks were aftermarket and leaking. 2.73 gears in the diff which was seeping. Engine and trans were coated in oil. It looked to me like much of it may have been from the drain plug as it was clean around it. Tires had 50-60% tread and were from '10.
I found it was unlocked so I helped myself. "58k" miles on the odo. Carpet needs help, but the seats were not as bad. Blue interior. Ignition switch was messed up.
I popped the hood and took a look around. Oil was decent looking, though it had some white crud on the bottom. Closer inspection revealed condensation at the top of the dipstick tube which was getting picked up by the dipstick. I checked the TV bushing and while it was plastic it was intact and in good condition. I checked the coolant and it is in dire need of a change. It was about 6-8" below the fill neck and nasty brown crud. Recent reman alternator. Recent distributor cap. Wires were not as recent but had been replaced at some point nonetheless. I think it had a water pump put on it some time too.
Battery hold down was MIA so the battery is just floating around. Transmission fluid was ok but needed changed.
If it is still there Saturday Ill see about contacting the owner.
