Faults:

The arm rests appeared to be falling off, and the electricals went at 129,000 miles, and the transmission sometimes leaks fluid; most of the time it's an easy fix.

General Comments:

Perfect car for your teenager to get into the classic car hobby, and doesn't want something with boring acceleration, because that car will hold and pull when you put the pedal to the metal.

The seats are perfect when you are feeling tired, and need to pull to the side to the road. They are a great solution if you have a bad back like I do. The luxury aspect is great for being a sedan that's $2,000 and under.

Highly overlooked, because it shouldn't be difficult to get mine up and running again. I would recommend it for a first car or a daily driven classic if you want to keep it American; just remember to keep up on the regular maintenance, and this car will last a long time.

Faults:

Paint Faded

Holes in the cloth seats

Air conditioner recharged

General Comments:

I love this car. It's got almost 500,000 miles and still going strong! I wouldn't trade this car for anything. Runs like new. A+ car.

Faults:

The driver's side window got stuck in the middle -- I didn't fix it, but was able to close it up permanently.

Driver's side rear window stopped working as well.

Front axles needed to be replaced.

Power antenna didn't stop running -- had to pull the fuse out to shut it off.

Stalled out frequently.

Power locks switches did not work.

Dashboard idiot lights did not all function correctly.

General Comments:

I bought this car for 600 dollars when I got my driver's license. This car had only 55700 original miles -- I bought it from the original owner's grand daughter. The grand daughter drove it for a bit when her nana went into assisted living, and then I bought it.

I put about 5000 miles on it during the course of three months.

Nothing on the car worked correctly -- mainly the electronics.

Although it was difficult to start in the morning and frequently stalled, it only left me stranded once.

The car was rather comfortable -- the seats were very worn (they were leather), so I usually threw a towel on the seat.

I could seat six people in it comfortably.

Unfortunately, the engine blew on the interstate when I was coming home one day. Apparently, the radiator was leaking and the car didn't have any coolant in it (the check coolant light NEVER came on). The car didn't have a temperature gauge, and I didn't know it was overheating until it was too late.

This car had many problems with it, but kept on chugging. If the car had been used slightly more, I might have had a better chance. But I have no complaints with the car considering it was so old, and never left me stranded when I went out of state or down to the beach. If you can find one of these tanks in good shape, go for it--they're built very well.
