Guys,
I have a 1973 2.0 that has too much rust to restore. It has a good motor with a cam and carbs. I have an extra windshield, brake repair stuff, tranny bushings, etc. All the panels are pretty good except for the drivers rear quarter panel. It has fuchs, etc. I refuse to sell this car to someone under the false pretense that it is a fixer upper. This is a parts car with extra great parts. So, should I cut it up with a saw and cart off the carcass, or sell it as a parts car? My theory is, bail out now and find a complete, straight car. Hell, maybe it is time to get a boxster. |

My 74 2 liter was beyond repair a couple of years ago so I decided to part it out. Yeah, it takes time and effort on your part, but it's a worth while endevor. To date, I've been able to pocket roughly $3,000 by selling parts to other club members, and I still have most of the body and suspension left. I might add that I didn't sell my motor and tranny, they were installed into my 72.
