I picked up a S70 GLT and want to know what you guys think I should do with it. I was told it has as bad block. I put a wrench on the cam nut and got it to move a little but not much. Most of the parts on the motor look new and I was told that the turbo was just rebuilt, everything behind the t-belt cover is new, and the body & interior is fair.

I'm into it for about $750 and I see the following:

• Missing the air filter box
• Missing the starter relay
• Missing a battery
• Has a hole in the MAF

Other than that it is a little dirty and has a lot of quality iPd parts on it.

The poll are my options and please do comment.

 

how you into it for $750?

 

It cost me $500 and $250 to have it shipped. Did I win?

 

I decided to sell the car to the salvage yard. I could not turn the crank so I figured the block was likely frozen. A mechanic suggested that the car likely sat to long after it had a head gasket leak and the pistons rusted to the block. I'm out!!!

 

so does that mean you wont sell me the seats?

had I known you were paying that much to ship it I would have brought it to you but its done now.

 

hmmmmm

 

Man, I asked you how much you were willing to pay for the interior but you quickly offended me by accusing me of trying to double my money. You can ask around here, I try to help guys out here all the time. I would have sold you the entire car for what I paid for it in a minute, then you could have taken the seats and anything else you needed then parted the rest out.

It would have cost me $80 in gas alone to drive there and drag the car back, not to mention the 6 hours it would have taken. I feel that $250 was fair.

 

you asked me what I was willing to pay for the interior and I told you that I wasnt going to double your money.

From what you said it sounded like you wanted to see how high I was willing to go instead of just telling me what you wanted for the seats. Maybe you didnt mean that but its how it sounded.

I didnt mean to say that you were trying to double your money I was just letting you know I wasnt going to be the one . I wasnt really trying to offend you about it.

I just wasnt going to pay a ton of money for them. I knew what the car was for sale for and I knew you just wanted the wheels.

I wasnt really trying to offend you at all. sorry. I even said sorry in my reply but I didnt word it properly

I really wouldnt feel like going and picking up the entire car now considering it was just 5 minutes away from me before.

I am sure you will make more parting it out some before giving it to the yard.
