The 20 year old who owned it did all he work to the engine...vanos update, cams, timing stuff, all the seals then a few days later lost control of the car and hit a palm tree here in savannah at 45mph so the story goes. The car had been at the shop were the work was done for almost a year and he never claimed the car..marshall was going to tow the car but rather than lose on a great deal I was lucky enough to get the owners info and talk to him, he wanted 3000 but since in less than 24hrs he wasn't going to have either car nor money I offered 1500...no choice but to agree.Comment

Thats what I had to sell my wife on(approving authority)..the fact that we can still make a good buck even after I take what I need.Comment

I guess $1500 is good money for the parts, but that car is not worth fixing.Comment
