Default Well i found a SSEi, i think. (maybe not car is sold) :(

Wasn;t 100% on where to post this, soo move where ever...

Ok i got a cal from my brother that he saw an 93 Green SSEi for sale by his work.

So i went down there to check it out, It looks in Ok shape, it has a little more rust body wise then my car, bu it is an SSEi and looks like it has everything but the sun roof.

The drive seat has a few holes in it, and there are some Cob webs in the car so i looks like it has been sitting for a while. the paint on the hood and front fendores and doors look in better shape then my car

I gave the phone # i saw on the for sale sign out front of it and left a message. i dont know the miles of if it even runs. But sens eit looks like its been sitting for a while i might be able to get it for a real good price.

So if all gose well i might be getting m self a SSEi to fit up or to use for parts....

Well here are some Pic of Her...

I would pass if I were you, unless it was below $1500 or even $1000. Rust is only getting worse, it'* definetly been sitting a while, and the paint isn't that great IMO..

MAKE SURE you have a mechanic inspect it.

Ditto...when you find a car that has been sitting out in a field for some time, there is usually a reason why it is where it is.

o yeah im only getting it if its the right price...

IE...

If running and working 100% $800-1000
If not running/working $400 or less

if it is running 100% and i get it then i either

A: going to fix her up , not put her on the road till shes done. Turnn into a real nice car.
B: Get her, fix most of the rust, and drive only in the summer.
C: Parts car, turn my SE into a SEi


As far as the rust.... the under body is about the same as my car or a little beter, the 1/4 pannel has more rust then my car but its still is fixable.
The paint.... TRUST me its alot better then my car, the fendors and Hood doesn;t realy have any deep to medium scratches on them, unlike mine that looks like someone took sand paper to :(

no need for some mechanic that wants to make money on me to look at it.... Around here i find that most of the shopd jst dont know that mutch about newer cars or just want to make money. i realy dont trust any of them.... when it comes to car i do know what im looking for and i know what not to get.
