ROUGH SoCal 81 parts car on ebay
Abandoned at a garage, BIN is $275, bid $135, but I am not tempted.
OTOH if we could find a space, and somebody could actually use something that is left on it, a pick a part party might be fun. Chatsworth is about a $75 to $100 flatbed trip to Stephen's house.  Can't see the shifter, but pedals are for an automatic.

If you bought it just to sell the glass you'd make money on it, but you'd need somewhere to store it first.

Might be worth buying it so some poor fool doesn't buy and want us to help fix it.
Can't say I've thought of any part I would want for myself off it, but taking one apart if you haven't done it before is kinda fun.

Catch is tires on the road and you need tags on the plates.
Could be a nasty ticket otherwise.Somebody might have a trailer, but if a local spot turned up, cost to flatbed isn't that bad. I'm not sure if Lucerne Valley would work out as being handy. Not that I don't appreciate the offer.I don't know how serious I am yet either, fun fun fun, might turn to dumb dumb dumb in a couple days. What we need are at least five people who see something they want on that car worth $50+ that somebody else doesn't already want. Title is junk, hasn't been registered in 10+ years no smog records, and carfax shows 3 records which could be diddly useful. Not my list, but things others might find useful. Set of phone dials pair of side mirrors Seats for parts. Ljet brains Intake spider Fuel injectors Core parts for rebuild like AC PS etc. Torque tube Transmission 3 spd Accessory brackets Glass Trim AC parts Bumpers Fenders Brakes calipers and rotors. fuel tank exhaust including cats (if there). locks headlights Fans ac blower sun roof motor dash and pod as cores. Heads and cams Metal for the crusher, cost of hauling away remains. |

No Prob. FYI, if I had the space, I would have bought it. No space to hide it from the Boss (Wife).

I don't think they give out the one day permit anymore without a failed smog test. Trailer or flatbed are the only ways I would recommend moving it. Tires are likely shot, brakes, steering etc in who know what condition.
Looks like a full length auto trailer is $55 from Uhaul, but others may be better, and there may be hidden costs (trailer light adapters etc.). I've got an 8 ton come along (winch with a lever to crank it) if you need one. |

i would go two wheels on, two wheels off. U-haul has it for like $30, I was gonna use that one when i moved to move the 914 but opt'ed with the 4 wheels off because i was in the middle of restoring the rear end, and it had flats. anyways either way you go you'll need a wench to help you load it...

If you use a wench to load you better find a big strong one, or borrow my winch.
928 are too low for a two wheel dolly, plus it would need good tires and registration. I have AAA, but I didn't think they covered anything but break down towing. I've been paying a local service when mine need moving around. |
