I have For sale is my 1998 Ford SVT Contour. It has a 2.5L V6 with a 5 speed manual transmission. I Recently bought a truck. I bought this car a few years ago at 116xxx miles. It Had a blown Clutch. I ended up finding out how very little rust it had. I had the car Undercoated by a shop. There is NO check engine light on. Located in Cedar Rapids Iowa.
First I'll start with the bad.
-- No A/C. I honestly do not know what is wrong with it. I have never diagnosed the a/c system. It could be as simple as a switch, but i do not know. I have been fine with the windows down, so i just never diagnosed it.
-- The car has some scratches, dings, and some paint fade in a few spots. (It is a 17 year old car.) Some clearcoat is gone from front bumper and rear.
-- Rear bumber has a crack in it. ( I bought it this way)
-- There is no Rear Sway bar endlinks. When I bought it I was annoyed by the rattle in the back, so I Removed them. Just never reinstalled new ones.
-- E brake desnt hold very well. Broke this past winter. I just stick it in 1st gear when I park it. Haven't diagnosed this either.
Now the Good:
-- VERY LITTLE RUST for these cars. ROCKERS ARE SOLID.
-- Sunroof Works/All windows roll down/up
-- Interior in good shape. no rips or tears.
-- Radio Works.
-- Heat Works.
-when I bought the car at 116xxx miles it had these things replaced:
-- Clutch and slave cylinder was replaced with LUK clutch kit.
-- Transmission had 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, Synchronizers Replaced by Cedar Rapids Transmission. I was told that the Differential looks good.
-- Flywheel was resurfaced
-- Rear Struts and strut mounts. Replaced with BAT struts
-- All Four Brake Rotors and Brake pads replaced.
Somewhere around 120,xxx miles I replaced all Spark plugs and Wires with OEM Motorcraft.
- At 126xxx Miles these things were replaced.
- I pulled the Entire engine/transmission and replaced a lot of gaskets/seals.
