It wasn't important enough not to sell it. The bidder didn't meet the reserve and was not obligated to purchase the car. I ask him and he never responded. Can't really turn it into my high MPG car because it is not a DD.
Parts: Wheels/Tires - 300 Link/INJ/etc - 1000 turbo/IC/etc - 1000 roll bar - 100 engine/tranny/rear - 1000 (or lower - some engine work and torsen on there) WI - 200 scrap metal - 150? (just had the last one towed away for free) So, $3700 in parts (maybe $400 or so extra for some other stuff). Parting would be a tough call and a lot of work. Also, a sad end to a very interesting project. Hell, I worked on the website last night <G>.
