Original owner 83 SR5 in great shape $2,000

Post by Gottolovem »

I'm posting this car for the owner it's not pristine but it has been VERY well cared for. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.
187k original owner car one visible spot of rust "see photo" has the usual paint fade owner says the rear luggage tray is somewhere in his attic and comes with a roof rack that he used to haul his wind surfing gear.
Upon meeting this man last night it was clear that he meticulously takes care of his stuff.
I WOULD MAKE THIS MY DAILY DRIVER IF I HAD THE MONEY. The carb is currently being replaced with new one "reman" because it's been sitting for a while and it's due for it's annual smog check.
The price is $2,000 FIRM
It's a VERY solid car for the money let's keep it in the hands of someone who will care for it

I think just looking at the floor of this garage will tell you a lot about how someone cares for things mechanical.
I echo the WOW of marlinh!

I recall a few members claiming they were willing to travel for a good car.
THIS IS THE ONE!
I'll bet this one could fetch 3 in the PNW as it sits!
Anyone north of the border looking for a solid nearly 100% rust-free specimen?
