paraic Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Hi My V6 after 2 years and almost 20k miles of ownership is getting a little ragged. It may not pass the next smog test here in CA so I am contemplating either a parts car or a better condition model. I have a feeling HG is going and the catalytic converter is having issues. Otherwise it runs really well and is a great little trooper. So looking for an 87+ 505 auto (not turbo - too many issues for me and not enough autos around) - either sedan or wagon. Would prefer a good runner in CA/OR/WA as I am in Redding, CA area. Thanks Paraic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paraic Posted May 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 You know I believe I might have! I had a slight issue with my 505 and pulled into a gas station/shop just past Red bluff and the guy there pointed me to a shop run by an older guy who was heavily into Peugeots west of Red Bluff. He was retired but there were quite a few 505s in the yard but the pride of his collection was not a 505 but a beautiful 1950s convertible in his shop. I know his wife died a while back and we talked for an hour and then I went on my way. I can't remember his name now - it was last Summer but it was a very pleasant detour on our way to Sacramento. I see someone from the same shop was selling a 1986 505 T recently - I saw it on Redding CL about a month ago. It got taken off pretty fast so he must have gotten a quick sale.
