Default looking for a project car

I'm looking to find a cheap SC300 to fix up.

I currently have a car to drive so it doesnt matter if the car is running or not. I'm looking for a white one but any color is fine

- I would really prefer to have a manual since I would like to avoid the hassel of doing a trans swap. I do not need an engine in the car as I will ultimately like to build up my own.
- I would Like a good solid body with as few scratches and dents as possible.
- I'm not sure if every interior is leather but in best scenario, I'd like a dark leather interior. In reality, anything that is not ripped to shreds or broken up would be acceptable.
- The car need's to be the I6 for what I want of future plans

If someone has a car in this shape that is willing to sell, I would be happy to know more about it. I'm located in Northern, IL but for the right price I'm willing to make a road trip

Thanks, and if you have more questions or a car to sell, you can post here or email me at lilmcgee32@aol.com

If anyone had read my thread a few days ago. It was very similar to this one. I just want to make it clear and avoid any confusion. This is a friend of mine who, in aw of the SC's now, decided he wanted to start a project car of his own much the same way that I am going to be.

Also his name is Ben as well.... Lol

I have a 97 red/tan SC300 5 speed. Not so much a project car but definitely a solid base.

Take a look here and if you're still interested, we may be able to work on the price or sweeten the deal with the 20s and sound system.

Yes, the car is in excellent shape cosmetically and mechanically. I can get you all the pictures you need and/or video of the car on startup, driving, idling, WOT etc.

The price won't move much as it is but I can lower it below loan value

Give me a call or text on me on my cell phone at 918-407-0368 if you have any questions or would like to talk about the car.

Also, here's a video the previous owner put together of the exhaust system which will be added to my for sale thread:
