The owner is saying that the ABS light does come on when the car is started, but that it doesn't always stay on.  When it does, though, it is not flashing, but stays lit.

That give any more clues as to what might be wrong?

Fiberglassing really isn't all that hard, it just takes a bunch of time.  I helped build a hovercraft out of fiberglass is high school.  All you have to do it make a foam mold and lay glass over the top, then dissolve the foam away.  It takes tons of sanding...and more sanding, but I wouldn't put it up very high on the difficulty meter.

Suspension/Wheels/Tires/Brakes / Only ABS is out?
September 24, 2008, 05:24:41 PM
Hey all,

I'm looking to get myself into a TGP and think I've found one that's just about perfect.  The car is in GREAT shape, hardly a crease in the leather and the paint shines like it's 10 years younger, plus it only has 93k and has all three options (leather, sunroof, CD), but it has a couple problems.  The valence is gone, which is alright since it'll lower my initial cost and get the price way down ;), and ABS is out.

It's about 200 miles away, so I haven't been able to check it out in person yet, but the seller is saying that ABS doesn't work, but that the brakes function just fine.  Does that mean the PMIII is up for imminent failure or can they function this way for a long time?  I know Prior has now stopped doing remans on the PMIII, so it's either vacuum brakes or you're SOL, right?  Is it possible for the ABS to go out without having a more catastrophic brake failure imminent?

Thanks!

Maybe I'll find $3,750 worth of change in the couch.   :cry:
