Subject: Parting out 2.1 1991--everything
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Friends, I have a 1991 2.1 that I don't drive, can't drive, and can't find
time to work on anymore. The problem is with the motor and the fix I tried
to do with the motor in the car. I have two other engine projects on my
diesels, and I'm not going to go through all that again for a car I hardly
ever drive that needs a windshield when I get done.
It's an automatic. The only bad thing about it (besides the engine) is the
lumpy body (it had been the victim of falling branches in a windstorm).
While the panels are OK and rust free, you could probably find better ones
in general.
It is a southern car, no rust except mild on exhaust mount bracket.
Exterior Orly Blue, interior grey. No tears in any interior stuff. GL model.
It's in North Alabama at 35758. I will ship any of it to the best of my
ability to package it, but I want it gone so I can get my driveway back.

Here's what I can think of and the condition
The automatic transmission and everything connected with it out to the hubs
in the rear and the shift lever in the front is in excellent condition.
The front and rear heater boxes are in excellent condition, having the
cores replaced with low mileage used ones and the motor refurbed in the
front.
Alternator good
Power mirrors
Bumper cladding all the way around, with a minor problem here and there and
a split in the front at an attachment point, but nothing that couldn't be
repaired in an afternoon.
Heater controls and cables
Upper and lower steering column housing
Bumper mounting strips
Excellent instrument cluster and instruments
All hoses good
Starter good
Fuel injection setup with new hoses as of a year ago
Anti-bucking pigtail
ECU
Air meter
Good PS rack and pump, hoses
Steering components
Every single bit that goes on a 2.1 engine, including the sought after 1991
alternator tension adjustment
Complete working AC system and ducting including mounts and fittings.
Plastic coolant pipes (probably local pickup only)
Heads rebuilt 3 miles ago. Yes, three. (AMC)
All lights and signals
All things interior, in good shape except for floppy arm rest on front seat
passenger side.
Brand new muffler tip
Good original exhaust system, no rust
Good muffler and cat
Good distributor with very intact hall effect sensor
Good plug wires
Coil
Late model slider parts
Steering u-joint
Steering v box
Muffler mounts (only thing on the car that's a little rusty, but they are
OK.
