Hi. With the help of my mechanic, I decided that my 850 is a money pit that I can’t afford to hold onto, and I’m just going to stick with my 240s. I figured I can try to sell it to someone who did their own work – I was just wondering what a fair price might be. It’s a 1995 GLT with 175k on it, and the good points are – body in good shape, runs well (except for the week I couldn’t start it, but now I can’t duplicate the problem), nice rims, 2 almost brand new Yokohama tires, timing and all other belts changed not too long ago. I think that’s all the good points.
Now the problems that I know about:
Needs entire new exhaust, incl. cat and manifold
Radiator sprung leak
Needs front end suspension work
1 broken motor mount
Front rotors rusty, probably need replacement
Odometer not working (I checked mileage through diagnostics)
Driver’s seatback doesn’t adjust
No start situation – can’t duplicate now
Lots of corrosion on engine components (alt, compressor and Freon lines, etc.)
Parking brake freezes if left on
Thanks!
