Well I mine as well just part this car out, now the radiator is cracked. If this was a year ago and I wasn't having to drive two cars to wisconsin in a month and a half i wouldnt be having this problem. If I do part it out anyone insterested in some parts. Its a 98 pearl with ivroy interior, let me know.
 
like i said everything is falling part well the major parts that move the car. It could be fixed if i had the money. rear diff is leaking, valve cover gaskets, trans is fried, etc etc
 
i just replaced my radiator but i had it fixed with j.b.weld an it lasted a year not the best way to go but it might get you by
 
i've parted cars out due to being crashed, blown head gaskets, engine bay fires, numerous reasons but i cant remember ever parting one out for a cracked radiator lol! if you have 2 of them, keep it for parts for yourself if you dont want to fix it.

Its not because of the radiator "lol" :bash: once again if u read ^ like last time, you'll see that my trans is going my rear diff needs some work the valve cover gaskets and who nows what that will bring pulling those off. All of those problems with one month to get them fixed.
 
and the seats are far from new... no rips but the arent in to great of conditions
 
hows the driver side seat bezel? im also interested in the glove box, and passenger side seat bezels
 
Sounds like hes not interested in fixing it, let him lose his money... The only real problem I am seeing is the trans issue, why is it "fried"?
 
All I can say is I brought a champange on ivory 95 back to life... and it needed a trans, paint, suspension rebuild, new headlights, new tires, and a whole bunch of little things... and it cost less than $2k to bring it back to life, and it was like a totally new car after that.
 
after seeing what you were able to do with my car and 1bad's car I'd say it is magic I thought our card looked good before but man it was like they came off the paint line all over again. I feel guilty driving it in the bad weather after all of the hard work you put into it.
 
KK you only break 2 things when repairing one? I usually go at least 3...slacker
 
Some of my bests...

Cracked a dana 60 knuckle in half replacing the ball joints :D Cracked a windshield in a VW Jetta replacing the engine, and somehow mysteriously burning up the fuel pump driver in Kirks car...
 
LOL well you all know I'm going to reply to this.

The trans is worn out A.K.A fried as I call it, I would love to fix up the car but the time frame I have its not going to work out which is why I'm either selling it or parting it. I had a full laid out plan of completly restoring it. Starting with the underbody, strip it bare sandblaster the IRS frame and engine craddle. Fix what ever surface rust and re-liner it etc. But with having to move back to wisconsin in a month and a half from el paso its kinda hard to do with two cars when you have no money to ship one much less cover gas for the other to get back. Loss of money yes! Do I want to.. hell no! but I dont really have a choice right now unless I somehow came up with 3 grand somewhere.

So when it comes to the will to finish something Plz don't say I don't have it if you've never met me.
 
You should ask ED HALL if you could use his tow rig I hear it's really reliable. :shifty:
 
Given your time frame, I'd suggest you sell the car whole for the buyer to use for parts or for repair.

Once you start pulling parts out of it, you won't have that choice. And you likely won't sell enough of the car to make it worth your while in just a few weeks.

Throw the add up on Craigslist, take some pictures, and put a band aid on the leaking plastic radiator.
 
LOL! I agree it was mostly a thought to art it out, its up on craigslist now but my computer is messed up so I put in my cell number for photos.
