| I am selling my Florida DCM 99% rust free wagon due to my recent upgrade. This has always been a daily driver, no sitting. Everything is up to date including shocks, coil springs, plugs, plug wires, water pump, fuel pump, tires, distributed cap and rotor, A/C, brakes, etc. It has a PCMforless economy tune and Bosch III 24 lb fuel mileage injectors. It is not a tow pack. It has a 2.56 rear end. When I bought it I the transmission looked like it wasn’t the original, suggesting a rebuild.
It really runs great. I only use ethanol free gas except when traveling. The odometer reads 142,000 miles but the computer says 242,000. I had an aux jack installed in the factory radio. Other than the pcm tune and injectors it is stock. I drive like an old lady and use Amsoil synthetic and oil filters. All of the fluids have been kept up including transmission (Amsoil), differential (synthetic), and power steering. The A/C was recharged for two months ago and blows ice cold.
There is a tear in the driver’s side seatback, otherwise the beige one interior leather is good. Everything works except for the drivers side seat heater and twilight sentinal. Headlights have been refurbished on the plastic.
I planned on keeping it forever until I found a standard one with upholstery like my wifes 1995 standard sedan which gives my long legs a little more room. It is originally a FL car. I bought it in 2014 from a car collector who bought it from the original owner. Although the odometer read 100,000 miles at that time (and I believed it) when I took it to a dealership for the air pump delete they told me that the pcm read 100,000 more miles. It was rust free at the time and because I lived in IN at the time I took it to Ziebart for rust prevention and sound quieting heavy undercoat. I garaged it and didn’t drive it in snow. I moved to FL two years later. Before moving the front end was inspected and brought up to date. I have a file of all repairs that I didn’t do myself.
There is a small streak of rust on the front of the hood by the grill, a tear on the driver’s side seat back, the left seat heater doesn’t work (the left one does and it has dual power seats and with memory on the driver’s side, and the carpet shows its age. The outside molding is gone and it is beautifully polished where it used to be. The driver’s side upper plastic trim is gone. The left fly away panel is gone. I bought a replacement from Fred but never installed it. It has weathertech floor matts and front and read window awnings. The new window rollers have been replaced. The door interiors are in remarkably good shap except for a crack on the driver’s side. They have a few extra screws for added strength. Other than that it is spiffy.
I am going to start out asking $3,500 and go from there.
I can send pictures via email on request.

| I just placed it on Facebook with lots of pictures.
I said that the odometer reads around 142,000 miles but the pcm says 242,000 and but I think that it will end up saying 100,000 which needs correcting. | |

| I posted it on the 25th but it is still under “review”. It is the first time that I have used Facebook Marketplace so it is a bit of an experiment. Anti-Facebook is a good thing | |

| Please note that although the odometer reads 143,093 back when it said 100,000 miles the dealership that flashed the pcm for the air pump delete said that it had 200,000 miles. By all appearances it resembled the lower mileage but I suspect that this car has 243,093 miles. The trip odometer does not work. I mentioned in the description that the inner door panels have some extra screws for strength. That is incorrect, I was thinking of a different Roadmaster (I have owned five, this is number 4). Russ
