'88 TA Heavily Modded - Come take it away
Hey everybody, long time no see; use to hang around on this site a long time ago... I've got this project car that (until three years ago) I drove as a daily driver. I just don't have the time or the desire to mess with it and it's just rotting where it sits. Ideally I'd like it to go to a fellow third genner so I'll be posting it here first. There's roughly twenty grand in parts here, I've got the receipts, so you can make some bean parting it out if you like, but I don't have the time or the patience for that.

Things wrong with it

Very leaky transmission front seal
Exterior getting in rough shape
Door solenoids/poppers aren't popping
Interior door panels removed for fourth gen door panel project which I have and go with the car
(The hood's not closed in this shot)
I'd like to get $4k for the lot (the engine alone cost more than that); just come by, throw it on a flatbed and take it away. Please, unless you're serious, don't ask for more pix or more information, I need to get this gone quick. And again, I don't want to part it out, if you do, that's fine with me. Email me.

PS: I tried posting smilies where I wanted to indicate "humor" but evidently those count against you as "images" and I figgered you'd rather see the car. = )
