7/22 Edit: Sold! 

 

Posting this for my brother...

  • 2003 Forester XS with 175k, ~130k on auto. trans.
     
  • Parts car -- has terminal rust, not safe
     
  • $350

 

 

Stuff you should know:

  • Runs/drives well, despite rust
     
  • Headgaskets were done (by dealer) long ago, but aren't leaking
     
  • Needs camshaft seals
     
  • One axle seal is wet
     
  • Automatic trans replaced under warranty, hence lower miles
     
  • Most service records, except the first 30 months prior to ownership. He's going to call dealer for date/miles on the HG R&R.

 

**License plates will NOT go with the car.**

Car is in Ellington, Connecticut 06029 (a bit under 30 minutes from Hartford)

Monday morning bump for a car that struck me as having some value to a GRM'er.

It spent a lot of time on I-91 to/from Vermont, which perhaps is why the underpinnings are rotted.

Also, you'd want to confirm with my brother, but it may be that its life could be extended with replacement subframe and suspension bits. 

You'll need to log in to post.
