For 500, not bad.
I was on craigslist last week and found this for$700.
The lady must have gotten an insurance check and did not care about it anymore.
I went over and tried starting it, wouldnt start, so hooked it up to my truck with jumper cables, and 10 minutes later it started and purred like a kitten. It had a hole in the top of the radiator so i just drove it up and down the street and watched the temperature. It has 125000 miles on it. Good tires, and a Full tank of gas! She changed the oil 100 miles before she wrecked it. She said she had the timing belt replaced at 80k and had all the service records for it. The brake rotors were warped, so i had them machined and it shakes a little when accelerating, so im thinking motor mounts. So i fixed the top of the radiator with jb weld, got the hood to latch, and i have been driving it ever since.
What do you guys think?

I think that's too much for what it needs done to it.. I would have offered like 250-300.. Good find though!
Looks like a good buy w/ a little amount of easy fixes. Nice found.

I dont think it needs too much,
The bumper still looks good, maybe a repair and repaint, grill and maybe headlights which you get used on there for cheap, a/c condenser and radiator $100each, Upper section of radiator support, hood, hinges and blend the paint on the fenders. If you talk with a shop that may cost about $1500-$2000.

I think that is an amazing find for $500!
Good luck with the project!
What do I think?... I think it needs a lot of work! Good reason to go 4 a JDM front end though! Good price but high mileage, not too fond of the color but it'll work. You've got a lot of work ahead of you still... Good luck :)
As long as it has no rust, its a steal.
I think one huge bitch sat on that hood.

Nice find!
That shouldn't take too long to sort out.
I buy cars like these all the time and you my friend go a hell of a deal. Cars like that, with that least amount of damage go for like 1500 to 2000 at auction. Lets just say that you got that galant 500 less then what she could have got if she waited longer. Good buy!
Left Headlight, hood and grill is all you need. You can pull that radiator support out a little because it's not bad at all.
Does any one have any stock hubcaps they want to donate to the cause?
The ones on there look like crap. and are all busted up.
Ill pay shipping
I'd be more focused on getting that front end fixed rather than worry about some ugly hubcaps. As long as you have all 4 ur good. U could put 19"s on there and the car still would look messed up cuz it look like a fat bitch sat on it LMAO!
wow nice find!!!
Wow a steal if was for me then cause if u'r thinking in mods jdm front, new engine then yeah u ain't need that mileage then just change the cluster :):)
