Unless you need the parts yourself. I have tried to part out these cars before. NO TAKERS>>>>

The motor is not desirable at all, particularly if shipping involved... Sheet metal too iffy to ship and no one will buy if any part of the car has rust. Good seats may be worth $100 for all 4, but cost about $100 to ship any distance.

When I said the car was a parts car, I was not implying buy it and part it out... you only get calls from people who want little parts and then you find yourself left with a hulk that you have to pay someone to come and take, usually with the drive train intact....

Bottom line.... If you don't need the parts yourself... DON'T buy the car... seriously!!
