This forum is for cars that run, or at least are close to running. This isn't for parting out complete cars.

1984 Tercel 4WD, complete restorable, engine bad - GONE to wrecker

Post by mrdance123 »

1) car for sale, near Portland Oregon

This was a daily driver until last spring, aka 'foxy blue',
when it blew the head gasket, it needs engine rebuilt or replaced.
99% rust free and straight, just a few tiny bubbles under the back bumper,
the bottom edge of hatch, and the random dimple ding.
The transmission is perfect, a 3.73. ergo, $500 minimum, for whole car.

2) I also have a truckload of used spare parts, almost everything there is,
for someone who will take everything at once for the right price,
not included with $500 car, this is a 2nd deal.
You will need a truck, a trailer, or full size van to pick up all.
Also a collection of new bearings, seals, gaskets, for almost everything, from Rockauto.
This is for someone in the hobby who is perhaps restoring other T4s,
and has lots of available storage.
I don't want to mess with individual parts selling,
I am out of the hobby.

PM me, or email mrdance123@hotmail.com, with TERCEL in subject line,
if seriously interested in the whole parts collection.
I will get back to you with extensive detailed photos,
and spreadsheet inventory of 30+ organized storage bins full of parts.

Well thank you for informing us about the fate of the car. It can be very useful information if someone goes after transmission.

Are you still looking a buyer for your spare part collection?

If you emailed him through this site, it might have not gotten through. There was a problem with the forum's email system recently, unfortunately.
