- Background
- Always used as a part time driver and garage kept for the majority of the time. Bumper, hood, and fenders have newest paint and the rest of the car is original. The top was replaced in 2007, it lasted exactly 10 years which was the manufacturer life span. I replaced the motor/transmission in 2010 with an exact motor from a crashed/totaled 97 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Actual miles of the car estimated around 270K.
