DP Honey Bee Needs A New Good Home!
Original owner lowered this baby 1.5" more than ten years ago. She has been well loved the last ten years by the second owner, who now can no longer give her the attention she deserves.
I was hoping to make her my summer project, but I have several other projects already on hand, so I've decided to let her go to someone who can get her flying fast again.
Body is in excellent condition, rust free, one tiny ding in the rear (see pics). Gold paint shiny all over. Glass is reasonably chip free.
She runs good, no smoke, no leaks, but a few months ago cracked the catalytic converter (not required for emissions at this age, however, built into the exhaust system). This causes her to have some exhaust build up after running awhile, so this needs to be fixed/replaced in order to feel her full power.
Interior has some stains on seats, some cracks, and a few small tears. Seat belt clips are functional but not pretty. Electric mirror and original Quartz clock still work. FM radio does not work, CD player does. Heater fan is not working. Driver's door handle is loose and works but with some difficulty. I currently usually open the door from the inside handle, though the outside does work, and is easily replaceable. The inside door handle and window crank are removed from that door (in preparation for fixing the outside handle) but present and included.
