…$2,000 for trade!!!

$12,000 for a replacement used engine. $22,000 for new.

Fucking $2000? What a shitty offer. Hell you could part out the seats for that. Then you have a ton of other perfect parts (admittedly aged) to go through.

Wheels $1000-1500
Brakes (front) - $1000
Hood, fenders, trunk - $???
Interior Trim - $300
AC, fuel pumps, alternator, battery, - $???
Downpipes and catback - $???

And this is basic. Then you could pull thousands out of various little parts that people need. Glovebox, armrest etc.

I would like to buy it for $5,0000 just to take 6 months to pull and sell parts lol. Would be fun. Or just buy it to store it and use for parts on my own car in the future. Fuck for $2,000 he’s getting scammed. I will give him double that in a heartbeat.

That’s very strange. Is this someone on the forums?

#4

Buy a used motor. Then sell the car. At least a 10k profit.

[quote]I’m honestly amazed at the amount of interest the car generated and the number of offers I received. Thank you to everyone that contacted me with offers and just good advice. In the end, the car is going to another enthusiast in NJ and should be shipped out in the upcoming days.
