I have two Monteros (1991 Gen 1 LS) and this one (1999 Gen 2.5 w/Winter Package). I purchased this Gen 2.5 about a month ago and had plans for a build but things changed so I will be selling it. Prior to me, it is a two owner, Southern California car with excellent body and paint and no rust. Looks fantastic and runs great. Passed smog with no issues. Just about everything on this truck works from the headlight washers to factory rear locker (see notes below for any non-working items). The truck is almost all original down to the floor mats and window sticker. The only non-original items are bolt on brush guard & aluminum radiator. Overall this car is extremely clean and would be an great foundation to start your Overland build.
The highlights of this truck are:
1999 Mitsubishi Montero
Trim: Winter package, Luxury package, Premium package, Value package – see picture of window sticker for complete details
Miles: 230,400

- Body and paint are in excellent condition with no rust (9+ out of 10). Original side steps and mud flaps have been removed but are included.
- Interior is very nice – excellent headliner, door panels, dash and console area. Carpets are clean and in good shape although faded with time. All seats are all in very nice condition. The original jack and tool kit are in place and unused.
- Interior/mechanical/electrical items work as they should: interior and exterior lights, AC/heater, gauges, cruise control, heated seats, front and rear wipers, sunroof, alarm system/remote key fobs, sound system, etc. The only non-working items are: both power side view mirrors and one of the green, rear wheel indicator lights on the dash.
- Suspension, steering and brake components are all stock. Shocks are KYB Monomax. Some of the suspension components (bushings/boots/etc.) could probably use some attention but nothing is urgent. The tires will need to be replaced soon - I wouldn't drive it across country with current tires.
- Motor runs strong with no leaks or no strange noises. Timing belt was replaced at 189,000 miles (per service sticker in the engine compartment). New battery. Oil service is up-to-date. Passed smog no problem. Only non-stock item is an aftermarket aluminum radiator. Engine compartment is extremely clean and detailed.
- Transmission shifts smoothly and does not have any leaks.
- Factory rear locker works properly as do all transfer case modes (4HLc, 4Llc, etc.)
