    Default 1999 with bad engine in Houston

    Bad news for me - I had a catastrophic lower radiator hose failure while doing around 4000rpm in fifth gear, and the engine did not survive. If anyone needs a black 1999 to fit around their spare engine, let me know. I'm looking for around $600 if you get the vinyl zipper top on frame and I keep and sell the few-months-old cloth top on frame, or around $800 if you get both tops. It has 2003 black leather seats, wrong size tires on chrome-looking MB sevens, stock radio, and salvage title. Costs for transport from Houston probably makes the deal not worth it unless you are down this way with a trailer, anyway. Still, I figured I should post so you guys have a shot before it hits Houston craigslist after I swap tops.

    If you want to offer significantly less, please do it in a PM, so negotiations aren't public.
