So how much is a shell worth?

[mrk442]

Trying to figure out how much to ask for my dead vert...

*Link to pics*http://my.inbox.com/photos/mrk442/index.aspx

the body is in ok shape a few dings and what not and needs paint but nothing major...

interior is so so its all there and the dash is pristine but the door and rear panels are warped..

It had a rebuilt auto transmission dropped in it maybe 2k ago..

not quite sure what happened best guess is radiator clogged or water pump failed either way I think i overheated and burned the rings "no compression on all 4" but the bottom and top end still look good and no coolent in the oil..or vise versa. it was running fine and then just phisss no compression . the temp gauge never went over normal so i don't know.. "theories?" I am curious i wanted to break it all the way down and drack it down but didn't have time..

anyway its gotta go so i am just trying to see what it might go for.. ohh i have a top boot that looks like it was never used that will be going also i will get some pics for anyone interested and post them..

Thanks...sigh...

ohh i am in Tucson az if anyone happens to be local and wants the boot it would make my life easier not to ship

I hate to see he parted out but I'm interested in the boot. I'm in NC and my zip is 27592. Let me know if you're interested.

I gave away my shell, but yours sounds like a complete car with a bad motor.

I know of a good place to list it, it'll go quick. Hit me via email....

yah working full time and going to school full time "and planning a wedding/honeymoon" I just can't find time to drop the engine let alone rebuild/swap/replace.

let me get some pics of the boot up and then you can make an offer i am not looking to get rich and don't want to cheat anyone so i will post some pics and we can go from there I don't really want to hassle with E-bay so Nico it is!

P.S. I might part it out still deciding.. I would rather see it go as a whole to a good home

Having been married for 18 years now I can say there is no better bonding experience than a complete engine tear-down/rebuild. Imagine the two of you using an engine lift together, marking hoses for reuse and Internet shopping for just the right swap.....honeymoon or personal vehicle lift..... you decide.....

I am interested in the shell...how much are you looking to get for it? Can you post pics as well? Is there any rust? I would like the boot with it also. How much would you for the car with the boot? And you could keep the engine and transmission if you would like to resell them because all I need is the body because mine is rusted. Also how many miles?

give me a few and i will post some pics of the car i found some i just need to host them elsewhere. it has 150k + don't remember quite how many but i will get that info. It was an AZ car so its clean little surface rust on one of the doors where it was dinged I think thats it.

not sure what i really want for it i know about what boots go for so if you want both it would have to be over the cost of the boot lol make and offer after you see the pics i can email them to you faster if you send me your address since i happen to have them in my email.. anyway i am off to lunch and will post the pics when i return..

lol looks like that personal lift would be a heck of a lot cheaper then my honeymoon heck i could pickup a RB while i am at it... My Girl would go for it but my schooling wouldn't lol just not enough hours in the day.

dexter?

ok i am lost

anyway i cant seem to get photo bucket to work for some stupid reason so i just created a gallery on the site that has my email

I know people hate to click links but there it is.. pics of the boot and of the car.. sorry they are not the best pics of the boot "took this morning" as you can see it has not been out of the bag in a long long time has all the little plastic parts that are on it.. well you can see the pics. I honestly think the guy that owned it before me never used it once and i just stored it away until i had the car fixed up which didn't happen

Thanks!

Dexter = has a moderately crashed vert, looking for a donor chassis, we all hope he finds something before the MI winter starts.
