I've found an s13 hatch that I may be picking up to resell, but I want to check interest first. Here's the specifics:

1989, Dark blue on blue interior, 5 speed, base model, (ie: no power windows, cruise, sunroof, etc.) Has the '89 teardrop rims on it. Interior is in pretty good shape, just one crack on the dash, and a crack on the center console plastic that surrounds the shifter.

Exterior is in really good shape, except for a needing a new front bumper cover and bumper reinforcement. The core support isn't bent at all, but the cover is cracked pretty bad right down the middle, and the reinforcement bar is bent slightly. Other than that, the exterior is pretty nice, no rust, no faded paint, no major chips, scratches, etc.

Mechanically, it has a new/used head on it that has been resurfaced, but all of the accessories need put on the front of the motor, and it needs a new distributor, (I have one I could include.)

What would you be willing to pay for this car? I'm located in Southwest Missouri, so don't voice interest if you couldn't seriously purchase it.

Make offers,

-Ben

Oh yeah, e-mail me at [email protected] if interested, wanting to shoot an offer.

Hey Ben,

If you do end up buying it just for parts or something, and you dont want the engine, I wouldn't mind having a spare KA24E sitting around;)

If not, free bump

Doesn't it seem likely if someone lives close to you and wants to buy it that they might just find whoever is selling it now and buy it direct from them to save a few hundred bucks? Buying to resell usually doesn't work well unless you buy it and fix/heavily modify it. just my $0.02

ditto what docrice said.

my .02:

that car isn't worth more than a few hundred dollars.
if you can get it for $50 and sell it for $400, more power to you.
but for the final owner of it, they'd have to have alot of patience and time to get that thing right.
