Sadly, the car that I learned to drive stick on in high school is really no longer road worthy due to some rust issues that I don't feel like fixing. I would consider selling the whole car, however. $1000.
Specs:
1996 Maxima SE 5-speed
Black/black w/ leather
BOSE
Moonroof
Auto climate
No ABS or heated seats/mirrors
240k
Runs great, needs a new clutch and throw-out bearing
Transmission gearbox is fine, no grinding
I can get pics of the rust, but it needs a core support and a bunch of other stuff in certain places underneath.
Lots of new (or recent) parts:
Stillen front STB!
Alternator
Cleaned EGR system
Brand new tires
Front rotors and pads
Rear pads
Rear shocks
Replaced the dead tach
New radiator
Front passenger wheel bearing and hub
A/C compressor but the system leaks after a few months. It works very well until it leaks.
Many moons ago it had the timing chain and tensioner job so it really does run well, smooth and quiet.
I also have a brand new O2 sensor still in box.
This car was cared for and brought back up to spec after inheriting it back from my brother a few years back. The interior is in great shape. The BOSE system works flawlessly (all speakers and even the CD player) and sounds great. Windows work, moonroof works, power seats work.
The car has more life to give, even if in pieces. Any interest in the whole car, or parts? It is located in Plainville, CT at this time, though I am in RI. We'll work it out.
If no interest, it will probably be scrapped, which would be a real shame.
Some pics. The car is a state away so if I end up parting it out for sure, I will need to tow it back to my house so I can take pics on request and remove parts.
- BOSE head unit (works great but need to verify CD operation if I have a serious inquiry)
- Auto climate control head
- All 4 BOSE speakers and tweeters (the tweeters are actually made by Clarion like the head unit). The speakers all function perfect and sounded great before I removed them.
- All door panels but the leather inserts have been removed. Pics after I clean them up.
- Power window switches for all doors
- Rear package shelf with BOSE grills
- SE gauge cluster, 100% functional
- Headlights
- Taillights
- Driver's side fog light (passenger side lens is definitely cracked)
- Grill
- Center console
- Gas cap door
- A-pillar covers
- Fuse box cover
- Steering column brace cover
- Power mirror switch
- All 4 96 SE wheels (fair condition) with brand new Fuzion Touring H-rated tires. Literally the rear two have brand new tread and the front two have only worn 1/32" from new.
- Airbags and whatever other random stuff I may have
Let me know if there is any interest in these items and I'll get you a price.
All speakers work perfectly. I specifically tested them again just before removing them, by using the balance and fade control to verify each individually.
Rear speakers $60/ea + shipping. I plan to pick up a bunch of stuff that people have been asking for this weekend, by the way.
The seats and door panel inserts are SOLD. Thanks Rit.

How much for headlights, driver fog, grille, and lip shipped to Longview WA?
