That is a bummer because I can't deal with two more cars, but I would like to snag the G60 parts and maybe some other stuff too. The only reason I want it by the way is just out of fear that the UFO parts will be un-available in the not too distant future.
ANyway, let us know which salvage yard it ends up in so we can pick parts.

I'm tired of fooling around with the things, so this time next week, these cars are going to the wrecking yard. For a cash deal fire sale thing (not with actual fire), I'll sell the two cars together for $1000 (i.e. $500/car), and the 5-speed stuff for $250. I won't sell the cars separately; both must go. For the stuff-rich/cash-poor folks, I'm also pretty open to non-cash deals, especially for musical instruments, recording equipment, home stereo gear, and other consumer electronics. I don't need vehicles, though, unless you happen to have an old Citroen sitting around....

Oregon title is $77, and Washington title appears to be $7.

> ------ V8 #1 – 1990, Silver on grey sport interior. About 235k miles. Timing belt done at 197k. Heater core needs replacement/circumvention. G60 conversion done by PO, and needs new front brake pads. Burns a little bit of oil. AC needs a recharge. Has CAC smoked tail lights, which I’m not inclined to sell, but I have the stock tails in storage. V8 #2 – 1990, Titan Grey on black comfort interior. About 135k miles. Timing belt unknown (which is why I haven’t driven it much). Car runs, but needs new starter (I’ve actually got a brand new Bosch starter for it, but never installed it). Recently replaced cats/mufflers, and less than 20k miles on a replaced steering rack, pump, etc. Mileage is bad (14-16 mpg), and it idles rough. One mechanic who looked at it said the AC wouldn’t take a charge, and suspected it needed a new expansion valve, but dunno how on-the-mark he was about that. Regardless, no AC in the car. Also part of this deal would be my assortment of V8 5-speed conversion parts in storage. This includes a transmission and shifter linkage, pedal cluster, subframe, drive shaft, transmission tunnel section, all from a 200TQ. Karl
