Thinking of buying a gs for parts.. Anybody want anything?

Post by Franko »

Yeah theres a guy who is selling a rs for 375 bucks. Im buying it for the rear disc swap, power windows, and the gauge cluster. I dont know it anybody wants anything from it. The engine is perfect and I hear that the distributor is quite valueable.

Any interior pieces that people want? Im thinking of stripping it out inside and then the car will be off to the dump since it is rusty. If anybody needs anything let me know. Im still up in the air about it.

Valuable isnt really the best term. Expensive is a better description. When the V6 disty's die.. most people do the HEI mod cause it is a LOT less expensive than buying a remanufactured distributor. Most people can do a performance HEI ignition system upgrade for under $100. It can even be done on the cheap (with lesser components) for under $50.

Just an FYI so you know what the real value of that Disty is ;)

If it has a wrap around spoiler, I want the plugs that cover the screws. I'll email transfer you $10, you can put em in an envelope.

I'm totally serious.

Yeah sure! Obviously Im going to have to get this car because of its parts value. Its a good thing you mentioned it because the spoiler is not something Im likely to keep when it goes to the parts place or wherever it goes.

Im gutting the entire car.. I wonder if the gs lip is still on it.. I never checked.. Hmm.

It's an RS it probably won't have the wrap around spoiler. But if it does I got dibs.

PM me if you have em. I'll transfer money to your email address. Canadian banking is awesome.

Ah, I might need the black plugs that goes over the bolts/screws for the wiper cowls, maybe the plastic thing that goes on the end of the HVAC controls. If you were closer, I'd take the seats and antenna assembly...
