2003 Toyota Camry - Project Car / Parts - Blown Head Gasket - Starts! Price: $690 (or best offer) Location: Dale City, VA Description: I’m selling my 2003 Toyota Camry. This is a project vehicle ideal for a mechanic or DIY enthusiast. Toyota Camrys are renowned for their longevity and reliability, often lasting between 200,000 and 300,000 miles with proper maintenance. The 2002-2006 models, including this 2003, are particularly known for their "bulletproof" engine and drivetrain. Year: 2003 Make/Model: Toyota Camry LE Sedan 4-Door 2.4L 2362CC 14 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated VIN: JTDBE32K630239373 Owners: Only 2 owners, just one before the current one. Vehicle History Report & SCAMMERS: Sorry SCAMMERS! Don't ask! See below for a free one. Get it yourself. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY! Mileage: Approximately 246,647 miles Recent Work: A new radiator, radiator cap, and thermostat were installed, and the vehicle ran cool for a few weeks, then the head gasket issue occurred. Recently, new rear brake shoes and drum brakes have been installed. The front disc brake pads and rotors have plenty of life. Parking brake holds strong. Engine Condition: The engine starts right up, but it has a blown head gasket. Coolant has mixed with the oil (milky mixture visible on the dipstick). White smoke is evident in the exhaust. Driving Status - PLEASE READ:Vehicle should NOT be driven due to the head gasket issue. NEW FREE PARTS! * Brand New Headlamps in Box (refreshes the entire front-end look and ensures a thumbs-up on inspection) * New Fuel Filter in Box * New Cabin Air Filter in Box * New Oil Filter in Box INCLUDED FREE! * 2 Sets of Keys with Key Fob! (One set original! See photo.) * Original Spare Tire Tools and Spare Included * Original Wheel Covers (qty. 2) * Custom Trunk Mat w/Toyota Logo * Custom Plush Car Mats w/Toyota Logo (installed when the car was new!) A/C Works great! Very cold output. New A/C condenser and recharge. Exterior & Paint Condition: The exterior and interior are clean (non-smoking) and well-maintained since I've owned it. The exterior has some light scratches typical for its age, but generally presents quite well after a wash. There are also some pit marks on the hood and minor buffed-out bird-dropping stains. The paint still holds a nice reflective shine after a good detailing. You'll find a small ding on the right front fender, which isn't highly noticeable at first glance. Other Needs: Most likely would need 2 new tires, 205/60-R15, 205/65-R15. Driver-side radiator fan motor does not work but can easily be replaced. Overall: Ran reliably before the head gasket issue. Fast acceleration. Great potential for someone willing to repair the head gasket or needing parts. The interior looks great for the year model.
