1995 BLK/BLK LS KA7 Sedan in Atlanta

DJBacon06 · 02-20-08, 04:04 PM

Hey guys! I have loved this car to death during the course of my ownership, but it's just time for something new. I hate to do it, but I have to sell the Legend! soooo... Here are some basics about the car:

Year: 1995
Trim: LS Sedan
Mileage: 86,xxx. Engine was swapped at 146,000 and I have put 46,xxx on the new engine (had about 40,000 miles on it when swapped in). The rest of the car has 186,xxx (I have receipts!!!!) Timing belt and water pump were changed at this time

Recent Work done:
new cv axles and boots
new CVC and EGR valves
new shocks and struts
new rotors and break pads
about 85% tread left on all tires
recently aligned and balanced
I will add more when I can think of what has been done recently...

Problems with the car:

Mechanically - The only foreseeable problem is the steering rack. My mechanic has told me there is a slight leak in the rack and may eventually need replaced. I have had no problems with it, and the leak is so minimal that I have to top off the reservoir maybe once every three months.

Cosmetically-
o Scuffs on the corners of the front bumper cover and some chips from road debris
o Clear coat is peeling on rear driver's side door.
o Normal paint wear to be expected from a 13 year old car

Interior:
Car has after market sound system. It will include my Alpine head unit (can't remember the model number right now) but it also has a direct ipod hook up that controls the ipod from the head unit while charging it! The steering wheel controls are also hooked into the HU. The speakers in the front are Pioneer and the back are Sony. I would include the subs, but I cannot because they are not mine, so the car will be pre-wired for subs and another amp if you'd like.

And now to the pictures (interior pictures and more to come soon!!!)

25% tint all around

Considering the recent work I've put into the car (totaling about $2000 in 2 months) my asking Price is $5500 O.B.O.

If you live in the Atlanta area and are interested in seeing the car, please feel free to PM me and I will make arrangements to meet you with the car.

Thanks for looking!

Nice car! Did you swap in a Type 2 motor or Type 1? Is the trans original? How much would it cost to repair the steering rack? When you add interior pics, please try to add pics of the engine bay. Thanks.

When I did the swap, I was not a part of this community and actually had no idea it was possible! lol, but no, it was just another Type I my mechanic ordered. It had about 40,000 miles on it when it was swapped in. And yes, the tranny is original. Still runnin strong!

as far as the steering rack goes... I'm not sure how much it will cost, my mechanic told me not to really worry about it until it gets very bad. But honestly, the leak is so minimal I have topped it off (not even that much) once since the beginning of December '07.

and I will try to get some new pics up either later today or tomorrow!
