Agreed Kaleb!! People think parting out a car is so freakin
easy...........Just pull a few parts and throw them on E-bay.........If
you've never done it get ready for a surprize when parting a car turns into
a 40 hour a week job for a month. Just providing shipping quotes to non
buyers can be a very demanding task if you have no idea who to contact and
who will ship what.

There is a lot more work than you might think in parting out a car
properly. Then there is the storage of the parts, identifying what all
cars a certain part will fit, collecting payment, packing and shipping
the part etc.

right, but i just don't have the time to mess with diagnosis and

of a transmission in a $500 car that I don't need. But given the low
interest in parts from this car (e.g. seats, wood trim, engine, turbo,
etc)
I'm probably goign to pass.
That, and the guy hasn't emailed me back.

Is there a chance it's just the B2 piston issue -- the repair kit is
pretty cheap and it is not that hard to install (I have a writeup
somewhere that I created when I fixed mine, which I can remail to the
list if anyone wants it)
