These wheels and tires are for sale, PO said he paid $1400 for them. Make me an offer.
Posted Image

PO said it was a Canadian car due to the Km/h on the speedo.
Started right up but would not idle down.
Posted Image

Engine is dirty, poor paint job IMHO, and an oil leak maybe from rocker are cover.
Posted Image

Posted Image

Drivers seat has the normal tear in the side edge.
Posted Image

upgraded coil
Posted Image

sunroof, hope it was factory but don't know if that was an option offered.
Posted Image

Oh man, PO did not tell me about this and I did not see it, arugh :banghead :coffee
He must have left a battery that went bad in the back, even smells like acid.

Another thought this may have been a Canadian car, French in the door jam info sticker location, The official
language of Canada is French right? Sorry dudes just funning around, aeh.

That is all for now. Got to do some Solar number crunching. :hmm

Nice looking car, you'll have it right in a jiffy.

Won't idle down down might be a bubble in the coolant system. Make sure the hoses going to the throttle body are hot.

No factory sunroofs, probably done at the dealer.

Cool car... :thumb

You car might be from Canada if.... the primary speedometer scale is in kph....

You car might be from Canada if... there is French in the door placard...

And, your car might be from Canada if - the data tag says

This vehicle conforms to all applicable Canada Safety, bumper, and theft prevention standards in effect on the date of manufacture shown above...
:hmm I think your car might be from Canada... :lol

And if it might be from Canada you might find the code Z49 somewhere in the documentation or even on the Service parts Identification label on the spare tire cover.... :hmm

Another GT owner, should clean up just fine. The idle can be a few things, my GT did the same thing when I got it. The list would be: idle air control valve, air valve, mass air flow sensor, idle screw, vacuum leak. Mine after trouble shooting was just the idle screw needed to be turn a just a little bit.
