Vehicle Description
This is a wonderful car and I hate selling it, but I'm getting
married and moving 1200 miles. The long and short of it is that I
can't take it with me and I need the money for expenses, so here
goes... This is a DRIVER! Let me explain what this car (my
retirement project) is all about. The restoration was done on top
of a '94 Geo Tracker (frame lines up precisely with the body...who
knew?) so it has the 1.6L tracker motor in front while the original
engine compartment is now a trunk. The tracker had 10,000 miles on
it when the restoration began. It was in a roll-over as a Tracker,
but the frame is perfectly straight with no damage. Current
odometer is 55k and change. You can drive this car all day at 65
mph and never worry about burning it up. The motor runs
beautifully, especially since a recent tune-up a few weeks ago,
NEVER overheats, absolutely reliable start even in Iowa's 20-below
winters. You can expect 20 mpg around town and 23-27 mpg on the
highway depending upon how fast you drive. Brand new belts too. It
has the Tracker interior, which is nice. But that also means no
back seats, just driver & passenger with storage in back. It also
has the Tracker 4-wheel drive, which is super useful in the winter.
Five speed shift plus reverse of course. All new tires put on a
year & a half ago, maybe six thousand miles on 'em, they look and
drive like new. As you can see in the pix, I have the ORIGINAL hard
top. Those are as scarce as hen's teeth and it's in excellent
shape. I bought a new, heavy-duty powder coated convertible frame
from the Thing Shop and had a custom camouflage vinyl top made. The
rear window has been double-sewed in, so it's not coming loose any
time soon. I mounted the spare tire holder on the back, which has a
never-used brand-new tire on it plus a matching camouflage tire
cover. I also installed nice windows from the Thing Shop (can you
say $$$?). The driver window has sliding glass, the passenger
window a vinyl wing that opens and snaps to the outside. Fresh
paint last spring, and it looks great! A couple small bubbles here
and there, but I have those repaired and repainted each year. I
spent years cutting out rust, bondo and endless sanding, replacing
parts (like the rocker panels - one from California and one from
Denmark), new metal welded in on the sides and whatever else was
needed. This car is SOLID and good to go. I've been religious about
maintenance and oil changes, and whether you believe in the product
or not, I use Startron Gas Enzyme at every fillup (which I use in
all my motors) and the engine just purrs. This is not really a
'show car', but then again, I'm not asking for the kind of money
those cars go for. Check on eBay: they're going for up to $25K. It
is a good-looking, solid, dependable and just plain FUN car. Take
off the doors. Fold down the windshield at the drive-in. Take the
top down. Whatever. Oh, and it has the towing package but the boat
doesn't come with it. The radio is toast. You'll love this car as
much as I do. You won't be able to help yourself. Please Note The
