I'm the 2nd owner of this Sprint and bought her in 2021 with 111,152 original miles. She's all original, even comes with the rare topper. Stella starts every time and you'll get plenty of compliments when cruising around your neighborhood.
Stella was bought to be a father/son project car. A rebuilt transmission was installed by a local tranny shop in West Seattle in 2021. Stella has many replaced parts that make her road worthy; radiator, hoses,water pump, thermostat with new housing, exhaust system, battery, alternator, belts, distributor, starter, plugs,fuel pump, horn and lots of other small items.
All lights and gauges work. I replaced the carpeting with OC Carpet and used their premium carpet that has a heavy duty rubber backing this past summer. This carpet is custom fit for the Sprint and the additional rubber backing helps with sound. Stella was garage kept, so her interior doesn't show her age and is in fine shape. There are cracks where the center speaker is and a small ding in the center dash.
The two tone paint is original, car hasn't been in any major accidents so the frame is straight. Very little rust, but all is just surface rust and will sand out easily. The floor pans are in very good condition since I repaired them while the seat was out during carpet installation. The seat attachment anchors are in excellent shape and didn't need any TLC. The passenger side had a couple small hole that I enlarged. I attached 12 gauge metal using rivets to reinforce the areas. Fiberglass cloth was than added over the entire pan for additional protection/reinforcement. Everything was primed and painted for rust protection. I was able to kneel on the pans with no issues.
The tires, Toyo 800U Ultra Premium P215-75 R15 100 T are almost 10 yrs old but have less than 10,000 miles on them and with the original hubcaps.
My son is now into high end tuned Audi's, so I'm ready to let Stella go.
She needs a new stereo, paint and wheels to bring her to the next level.
There is a small oil leak and the door locks need some attention. I have a new heater coil and was going to install during stereo installation.
350V8, 3 Speed automatic, p/s, p/b, manual windows and air shocks. No air conditioning.
