SOLD! On 10/13/06.
After almost four years... good by Lumina.
I rescued her January 13th, 2003 for $1100. When I got her there was about 1 oz. of transmission fluid in the 5 speed manual transmission, the alternator was bad, EGR Valve power wire was bad, it didn't even have an oil dipstick, and speaking of oil, when I changed it it came out in globs. The driver's side door handle was broken, the vents are all broken except the far left one (and one is missing), and the rubber covers for all the pedals were missing. I'm in the process of rebuilding / modding her. Check back, I'll be updating as I'm upgrading.
