Friends, I have a parts car that has the complete engine with injection system still attached. This was a running and driving car with a good engine and transmission. It came in for brake failure and never left. Still sits as it is. Being sold with a bill of sale as a parts car. Was thinking of taking $1200 but will accept $950 as it sits and needs to be moved! It even has the same fuel pump under the rear driver side that comes in the mechanical fuel injected cars. All the windows and interior, grilles etc. are missing. What you see is what you get in the pictures.
I have been saving cars like this for 30 years, BUT I am in L.A.
I hope somebody local will step in.
But before it goes to the crusher talk to me and I will see what I can arrange...
Thanks so much for your concern but it won't go to crusher and I wont sell it for any less than $950. Someone just emailed me to sell them the original fuel pump for $400+shipping but I don't want to part out the car. All or nothing.
Actually whats funny is you assuming I have parted the car out myself? No no my friend. I am restoring my 72 280 se 4.5 and the shop who is restoring my 4.5 is charging me an arm and a leg everytime they take a part out of this parts car.
Lets put it this way, that if I pay them to take the fuel pump out then it won't be worth for me to sell anything out of that car. Now, for someone who do their own work on cars and take stuff off for a living, great. This may work. I won't assume but maybe that's what you do for a living but I can't afford the time do that and so I am selling the car as it is as a parts car.
It makes no difference whether you did the work yourself or paid someone else to get their hands dirty - you have already "parted out" a large portion of that car. Your parsing of words and confused explanation of the situation doesn't disguise the fact that you have a nearly worthless pile of metal on your hands that you don't know what to do with and may even be paying a storage fee to keep it where it is. Accept any offer and get rid or your headache.
I would pay maybe $500 for it if it were delivered to me, but that's only because I have a rusty complete parts car...
