Not mine, but I thought someone might be interested.

I talked to the owner today, he says it needs a trans, but he has one ready to put in that comes with the car. If it were closer Id be all over it, but Ive been burned to many time to make a trip like that for a basket case.

Price isn't bad, but the car's filthy inside and under the hood; contrary to the owner's claim "clean inside and out."

Gotta wonder how hard it's been beat, or how well it's been maintained.

Add the price of a transmission in and some labor and not such a good deal! Running cars have sold in the 8 to 9k range!

I think I'll call and offer him $5K. I have a spare tranny I *know* is good in the garage. Hmmm...

I would offer him 4000. to 4500.00 at most, like others indicated how hard has it been ran and what kinda maintance has been done or NOT done? For the right price it would be a nice one to build for a good N/A car.

If the trans is shot you are guaranteed it's been run "pretty hard"!! There is no "maybe" in that equation.

Parts just break sometimes.
