Thread: Need input on value of the "turd"

    Default Need input on value of the "turd"

    I need a little help determining a price for my 1990 Mariner Blue.

    The Bad:

    Rust in rear quarter panels
    Dent in front qtr
    M2 top has patch
    No AC


    The Good:
    1994 1.8L 80K motor
    2001 5 Speed Tranny - 45K miles
    HD clutch w/ 5000 miles

    135K miles - Interior is in ok shape.

    The car is a good as/is driver, but I have a grand worth of T3 turbo stuff and a torsen and want to find a nicer rust free car to build on....

    The drivetrain is worth at least a grand to me, so if the value is too low, I will part the car out... what is a rolling shell worth to a spec driver?

    That BRG was a nice car. Glad its still going strong!

    Bean already has a car doesnt he? I could sell him the shell for 1k and he could put his motor and tranny in the turd until he finishes off the BUR....

    I think the wiring-harness fairy is holding it hostage!
