$200 for this car.
I really, really wanted to get this car up and running, but once I started tearing it down it really requires more work than my expertise allows me to do. I just don't have the money to pay someone to do body work and paint when my other car needs it badly. Plus I'm storing it at my dad's house and he's pissed it's still sitting there without much progress and wants it gone.
The good:
Frame is straight as far as I can tell.
No serious rust that I've found so far.
Almost complete interior.
Calipers and rotors are fairly new.
The bad:
Paint is terrible. Maaco repainted it. It was originally Belize green and they didn't do a good job respraying it.
Dents in the flares on the fenders and quarters.
Plasic body panels on the sides are gone and holes have been filled. It just doesn't look right IMO.
No engine or trans.
Wiring harness is hacked and no ecu.
Needs suspension. Junkyard struts were installed just to get the car to my place.
Tear in drivers seat.
The front end is hacked pretty good from making room for a front mount and big turbo. The bumper barely stays on.
There's more bad I just need to go up and look at the car to remember all of it.
Here's a pic when I first got it. Once it quits snowing I'll get some more that highlight the bad areas.
My only other option if no one wants it is to send it to the junkyard. It sucks, but the guy I bought it from was sending it to the crusher anyways. In the shape it's in sometimes I think it may be best letting this one go.
