Hey guys seen this forum after doing a little research about my recent purchase. About two months ago I was trying to get rid of my 98 Chevy malibu(sold it, put money into this car) and happened to have just enough cash for this grand prix.
The only problem, the car hit a deer in 2008 and sat for four years(tags were from 2008).
Didnt get a real nice picture of the damage, but here you go:
Paid with this with cash from a min wage job, i literally had like 1450$ in my bank account and it was 1500$.
Since the start of june,I have had done many repairs. My uncles a auto body mechanic with 20 years expierence, so all i had to do is find the parts.
I was lucky with this car, let me tell you.
All I needed to buy fro body parts were new tires, headlights, hood, fender, passenger door, and had a crack in windshield.
2800$ later, I have a car with GTP door on passenger side(fool them people trying to race me), new windshield, new fender, new hood, new headlights, new windshield. I dont have a picture of it now, at this moment, but i can get it.
140,000 miles on her, runs like a champ, topped her out at 105 with the damage, 105 with it fixed. No mechanical issues what so ever, the window washer resevoir was loose, other than that it didnt recieve a bit of damage.
When i purchased, it had a dead battery that would not charge(4 years of sitting may do that), ac didnt work either. It got jump started, shimmied like a ***** from bad tires when i test drove, but didnt pass her up. Drove it two and half hours home without problems, next day i took battery out of my malibu then drove and bought new battery and thats the only thing i have done mechanically with it
This friday im putting a alpine type x 12" in the trunk, got head unit all in already just need steering wheel controls worked on aswell.
