Alternator was bad when purchased. Cheap, $50.
Idler arm was found to be bad - 65000.
Trans pan leak - 60000.
Oil pan leaked when purchased.
Radio wiring shorted and was replaced at 69000.
Carburetor needed to be professionally tuned when purchased.
This car is amazing.
I purchased it for $800 and love it to death.
It won't win any awards for acceleration, but what do you expect for a car that weighs near 5,000lbs.
It is zeibart and has no rust, and has an amazing finish.
This car is for sure a cruiser. I often find myself doing 85 and not even knowing it.
It rides amazing, and has one of the smoothest transmission I have ever drove.
It may be a tank and a gas hog, but the interior is amazingly comfortable and in good shape. The interior is unbelievably spacious for a 2 door (I am 6 foot 2 and can fit comfortably in the back)
It is a boat to drive, yet it has great road feel.
Your lucky to have found one with such low mileage. As a teenager, I owned 2 of the big-body Delta '88's (both '85 model) and needless to say I treated them like crap but the dang things just kept running. Plowed one into a tree (RIP), put the other in a ditch (amazingly, kept running after towed out). Despite the high mileage and utter lack of respect and maintenance, this was the most reliable car I owned. Keep it.
The 2-door coupe models of this particular car are very hard to find, and when you do they're usually in rough shape or have a million miles on them. You just may have a future classic on your hands! Enjoy.
I know I am glad that I found this car.
I purchased with hardly any miles on it and still have it below 80000.
There is no rust on it and the finish is great.
