Hey guys, just wandering any thoughts or ideas about how much you guys would personally pay for this car??? By the way, the car has about 30k miles on the motor. Not sure about the chasis...

hello engine rebuild / rest of car needs heavy work too

only thing worth $$ in car is the t2 engine + drive train (if it has it not mentioned...)
also the ecu is not mentioned....

hard call i personally wouldnt want too much to do with that car for $3500 but who knows...

It does have the TII drivetrain. The car was just primered, thats why it looks like crap. LOL! It has the TII ecu I believe. The engine was rebuild along with the bridgeport, which was about 30k miles ago. The car has just been sitting there for at least 3 months.

Look at the nastyness that has come out of the muffler... it problably runs like crap.

OTOH, if it drives well, make him an offer... it's going to need a lot of work.

If you can't get an accurate odometer reading, avoid it...

(wait, are you selling or buying?)

Not really... that's really high-balling it for a beat-up looking NA (that just happens to have a turbo engine).

And what's with the S4 wheels?

I wouldn't pay that much. $3.5 is asking a bit much for a car that looks like hell, even if it does have a TII swap. Granted, looks aren't everything but they mean something especially for what he's asking. There's also no speakers or radio.......F that dude. Offer $2.5 and if he doesn't take it then wait for a better deal to come along.

erm...it's a big bridgeport and it's running the stock ECU? Either alot more details need to be mentioned such as supporting mods for the motor...my gut feeling is it's a hack job and there's no way i'd buy it. It looks like it's not been taken care of at all. I especially like this part of the ad "Had a minor fire accident inside.
The car is accident free. " O RLY?

LOL! Its actually not as bad as everyone thinks. LOL! The only thing it needs, for exterior-wise, is the driver side fender. Other than that, the the body is in pretty decent shape. The primer just really throws out everyone, I guess.

But then again, I asked for everyones opinion, so thats what I wanted... LOL! Thanks guys. So I guess the avg is 2.5K? huh?

well I mean you have to understand...I bought my car with a blown motor and some aftermarket parts for $1200...and only needed minor body work and had a good interior. So, put a motor in it for $1500 and I have $2700 in the car and the body is in good enough shape it doesn't need to be painted....now with that car, the motor setup may or may not be done right, AND it needs body work and a paint job (at least $2k for a decent paint job w/ body work...and that's on the low end) So what would I have in the car then $3500+ $2000...I'm at $5500 and STILL will likely have to do something to the engine setup (standalone, fuel pump, injectors, etc) to make sure it's running properly. that easily put me with over $6k in the car....so yea, it's a bad investment if you ask me. I'd might give you around $1200 IF it ran well and the compression checked out good.

It would definitely help...I'd rather have to replace an engine that fix body problems/paint.
