Your PM don't work. I will e-mail you...

aight

the rims you better keep. they won't do any good as far as the selling price is concerned.
same with the audio.
if you can , post some photo's if the car looks descent you might be able to score 1000 to 1500 for it.
as long as it never had an accident.
good luck

good luckVery true. This subforum is generally more interested in the car then the bling and boom. (for better or worse)

heres a pic of it really sucks that i gotta let er go

I hope you really understand where people are coming from here, and I hope you mean by 'parting out' that it would be the wheels/tires and audio. Yes the rest of the car (I will assume is stock) has serious mechanical issues with the blown head gasket (and probably warped head(s) ) and the tranny, but IMO isn't reason to part it out further unless it has other serous damage in it's history as well. After all the idea is to keep these on the road. Good luck to you and thank you for your service over there.

Stay frosty, do the SDP, come back and fix her up (but get rid of the 20s :)).

First off bro thany you for your service and come back in one peice, second man are you sure you want to sell it :( . You dont have anymore interest in keeping it?
I say fix it ,the tranny is the only thing im wondering that will cost more than the engine to fix. Those 20" look better on your car than i thought they would...

ARRR, green ain't my favorite color :-(

And thanks for serving our country man... Stay safe.....

do your tour and then fix your car. i don't know how short you are... but
i got an engine (43k miles), that i could help you out with. and a tranny is available too
just stay safe and come back in one piece

Green is sexy. Keep it, fix it, and rock it.

I really like the green, I think it looks sharp. With all the tax free and HFP you can easily get her fixed. I have spent lots of time in Iraq so I feel your pain, just keep your head on a swivel.

I purchased my 850 with a bad head gasket. She was completely stock and aside from the normal maintenance issues with her age she was in great shape. A 93 850 with 63k I paid $4400 for her, did all the work myself and saved a ton of money, plus had a lot of fun.

well first off thank you all for the support and i really do wanna keep it i think i just got a little freaked over the cost of the tranny but i do have a ton of people searching for one and if anyone knows of a good used one let me know

Carspainc has an engine and tranny he will sell you out of one of his parts cars.

Hey partner call me when back from Iraq....I will help you fix it... I know good parts places and reasonable mechanics as well.....

thank you all very much you have all been a very great help and i will def let yall know when im back stateside

Greg, you're thinking what I am thinking :-)

what would that be? ethanw.?

u guys rock. If I can help, let me know. I can cheer from the sidelines. Men like this make a difference, despite wot the rest think.

Glad to see you're keeping her. You should start doing some research and asking questions now, then buy the parts so when you get back it's all there waiting for you, like I did.

yeah ive been doing alot of research actually well when the internet works that is.... i really think i would have regreted selling it for a very long time it needs alot of work but now i know where to go if i need help so itll all be for the best

Damn right! Remember, SDP is your friend :)
