No, I am not parting out this SC. It was wrecked there before so the front bumper was replaced and the headlights were as well.

In theory, somebody is coming Saturday to purchase this SC. Some flake, other's do not, we shall see. EDIT, next Saturday...

If SC's are a dime a dozen& given away daily, then why can't I find any where I live? 3 to 5 hr drive just to look over a picked out hulk! Slide wish you were closer to Pa, I'd come & get it. Glad your not parting it out & I bet it would run to Pa & never miss a beat.

Very tempting but I don't really want to put money into a salvage title vehicle.

Guy was a flake...wont be more than a month till he can make it over he said. Now, I am debating buying leather seat covers/skins to make the interior look a bit better. Those seats are really messed up.

EDIT months later: Sold car for 2k, replaced with a clean title 1993 SC400...
