  • Found a cutty dohc for sale

    Not sure of the miles or year, but the guy wants $1495 for it. If I can get him down, I'm going to buy it. It has ricer rims on it and the windows are tinted REALLY dark, but besides that, it looks to be in good shape. Can probably get him down because of the tint (illeagal in PA unless from the factory), but does any one know of any problems these had I can use to my benefit?

        check rear spring bushings, struts, oil leaking, look at the condition of the rear rotors, check for steering play by grabbing a front tire at 9 and 3 o clock and pushing, check for good operation of the turn signal switch, etc etc

          Going to go look at it on Monday, and if it is worth the money, have my mechanic look at it sometime during the week.

            Have your mechanic check the charging system, make sure the distributor o-ring isn't leaking, the tranny is in good condition, and the timing belt is good.

                    Or possibly the ball joint if only the 6 position gives.

                      Dude, I live over in Oley, I could look at it for you if you want to. Since we own two of those LQ-1s, I pretty much know what to look for. PM me if you are interested. We could hook up maybe Friday PM, I'll be home early. Let me know.

                        He is right! Be afraid! Be VERY afraid!!!! I had a Renault Fuego that exploded. It was awesome! The dynamite and fertilizer makes a great bomb.......ooops. Did I say that? Sry..It means ..Do some front end work! But back to the thread. If the car is decent at all, and it runs without blowing oil out the ass, and it shifts, $1500 is a good price for a DOHC. I paid $4500 for my Cutlass.
