I advertised this earlier after I finished restoring it but I'm needing room in the drive. It's a 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser convertible. In good shape, although not a museum piece. The only tool you'd need to drive it is a screwdriver to put your plates on. 20-24 mpg in town and 29-34 mpg on the highway. 4 cylinder, 5 speed. No rust and the top doesn't leak. It's not a show car, just a nice driving driver.

It's one of 4 vehicles I've got. It doesn't carry enough passengers, It can't haul rock or wood and it can't tow a trailer. I was asking $4500 for it. I've got about $4000 in it but it's been sitting so long and I've dealt with no many idiots who claim to be mechanics (they aren't, technicians maybe, but definitely NOT mechanics) I'm tired of the hassle. I'm resigned to losing money of the deal with it. I'm open to cash offers or trade form something else. Either a project or a decent driver.

I'm open to offers for, but not limited to, a 3/4 ton or larger pickup, up to a 1 1/2 ton truck. Something that can tow at least 5000-7000 pounds, if it has a flat bed with a hoist, great. Gas or diesel, automatic or manual, it makes no difference. Larger car like a panther platform, 5X10 or larger enclosed trailer, car hauler trailer, large frame motorcycle, either H-D or major Japanese, driveable projects from the mid 1950's to early 1980's, the fewer computers the better. I'm not a welder but if it needs brake or front end work, that's fine. 20 foot limit on trailers as my lot is fairly small and I don't have room for bigger. I'll also look at bumper pull camp trailers.

I have a clean and clear Indiana title in my name. If Indiana requires a title for your trade, it needs to have one.

Swapped the PT off today. I traded it for a 2004 Ford Expedition NXB.

It has some issues. The cruise control doesn't work and the heat won't turn off. Playing with the buttons driving home. I hit the A/C switch and the speed dropped right away by 10 mph. The drive train is sold and that's all I care about. Once I clean the mud daubers nests out, I'll give it a good going over and cleaning.
