you need space for that Posted by Snowmobile [Email] (#686) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Snowmobile) on Wed, 21 Mar 2012 05:22:33 In Reply to: Get a parts car, vvack0matic [Profile/Gallery] , Tue, 20 Mar 2012 16:55:03 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
A neighbour had an identical model year as one of ours, even with a good manual tranny + the same colour interior... the car was rusting + had minor running issues... anyway, original asking was $700 dropped to $500, and talking to him I could have got it for less... but just nowhere to put it, or even a large stash of parts off it...
my wife loves our saabs, but I would have been more in the doghouse for bringing home a 4th one (to tear into in the driveway) than for just buying the parts as I need them... maybe if you have a little extra space + can strip it quickly + unload the shell before it becomes a problem...
I hope the owner listened to me and sent it to the euro wrecker near me that has dozens of these cars... I'd end up paying more, but space costs $ also (in a city anyway - if I could double the size of my property, the increase in taxes would pay for a c900/year!)...
anyway, if you have the time + space, I agree, a parts car is a great thing!
