I'm looking to buy another Jeep and I'd like to get rid of my Intrepid to raise a few dollars...
I've owned this Intrepid since I turned 17. It's been good to me, but I'm losing interest in the custom car scene and I'd prefer to sell this vehicle and buy another 4x4 to beat around in.
THE BAD: it might have a tranny issue. I haven't had the time to diagnose it or pull it apart. It stopped going into reverse when my wife hopped in it one day. The transmission was fully rebuilt by West Deptford Transmission back in 2001 and has approximately 50,000 miles on it. I don't drive it now because I'm afraid of damaging something serious (It's no longer registered and insured either!). Some of the mechanics I've spoken to are reluctant to say it is a blown tranny, but to be honest, anything could be the case. I'd like to get a $50 tranny from the junk yard (Harry's U-Pull it has great deals!)and give it a shot, but sadly I don't know how long it would take before I had the time to do so. I do have brand new motor and tranny mounts that I'll include with the sale. Obviously, I would not recommend driving this vehicle home.
The engine is as strong as ever. This summer it was tuned up with new plugs, wires, battery, fluid flush, and seriously degreased and degunked. The interior is in great shape with 2001 Concorde Leather seats, new black carpet, sunroof, brand new speakers, and a few other rare goodies. The Paint is still in amazing shape, the wheels and tires are in great shape. Headlights and corners are clean and clear. I would say that the car most likely has $2000 resellable Intrepid/LH parts as it sits.
I'll include any and all Intrepid related spare parts and accessories that I can dig up! Everything from bulbs, TCMs, clusters, shift knobs, haynes manuals, extra tail lights, and new car brochures.
Brief Mod list includes:
Cross Drilled rotors, Intrax lowering springs, CAI, Ravin z44 Exhaust, House of Kolor "Burple" with Ice Blue Flake paint, Charger R/T 18" rims on Goodyear tires, Fehrenheit 7.2" monitor, custom machined TB spacers, and much more!
Located in South Jersey, 10 minutes from Philadelphia.
If you have any questions feel free to ask! More pictures are available upon request!
I'd like to get $1200 for it.
