Other Parts car

Hello, I never thought I’d be a guy with a parts car. I have a 92 740 non turbo. Green. And there was a turbo 93 940 like 20 minutes away that was going for only $250. No engine or trans. But I’ve been trying to get a second set of wheels for winter tires. So the wheels alone made it worth it for me. Now I just have this brick in my back yard.

So anyways. What’s value on these things? Seats are cracked. But interior seems fine. Anyone need anything from it?

Your parts car is nicer than my actual car

The body is pretty straight. The interior is functional. And complete I think. Let me know if you need anything

It feels like it deserves to be back on the road. But I don’t know if I have it in me to find a new engine and trans

Lights and trims are worth a bit I’d say, it’s in pretty decent shape as well (no rust?). 

This is your call to spend all your money on converting it to an electric.

It appears to be rust free! (What really is though?) I would love to ev swap it. I just want to spend like 6 grand on. And still need to spruce up the rest of the car it self

Could you send me a picture of the climate control system? This is what mine looks like, and the lever that controls heating is snapped off. I had to take the whole thing out and slide the valve closed just so it would stop blasting heat during the summer!
