98 SSEi available for parts etc Front Subframe failure
Posted: Tue Sep 15, 2020 11:44 am
I have a one owner 1998 SSEi (Yes, that is the supercharged 3.8) that just recently experienced a front right subframe failure.
So, vehicle not real safe to drive, but I know it has some valuable items left for anyone with a similar vehicle.
The engine/axle have about 250,000 miles, with oil changed every 3000 miles, and supercharger serviced every 40,000 miles. Runs great.
Since car resided in both WI and IN, it does have some rust, but also has many good body panels.
Electrical stuff (power seats, windows, mirrors, radio) works.
Not good or not working are:
- cruise control
- front driver seat has exposed foam (Leather tore)
- rear air suspension
- exhaust from rear axle back is not stock
Anyone interested let me know, otherwise this baby is going to have to go to the salvage yard.
