Smashed front end, rotted driver's door, otherwise not bad at all. Cirrusblau Mettalic, Pacific Blue (dark) interior. Throwing the OEM TRX's back on, though I am selling the 14" studded snows (on bottlecap wheels) separately.
Motor runs PERFECT, purrs like a kitten with no hint of wear @ 178K. Gage cluster sold, Most everything else is there. NOT driveable, must be flat-bedded out. ATE rotors in fine shape, auto transmission shifts perfect. I don't think it has the LSD, but I never looked.
The bad: to get the motor out will require the use of a cutting torch or similar destructive tool. Cracks in the usual suspects, including the rear bumper and dash. No OEM radio.
$250 for the whole thing. I need it gone.

As much as I'd like to, I can't. I don't have any way of cutting the motor out, and it's too smashed up to lift it out. Mind you, the fan never even touched the water pump, but just a millimeter more hit and there would be damage to the mill. As is, lots of good parts on it.

What size are the TRX's and how good of shape are they in? I could find you something to roll on if the TRX's have some life and you sell the snows.

Regretfully, the TRX tires are shite. They were awesome, because they aren't Michelin TRX, but instead very rare Avons. Not good though because the the age had gotten them, and it appears the internal carcasses have failed. When my daughter was driving the car on them, she reported shaking in unstability at speed. The wheels themselves are fair, one that was a spare had rarely seen the road.
You really don't want TRX's for anything except a trailer queen period show car. They are 1980's technology, and poor tires by today's standards.
As for photos, I'll take some, but the front passenger seat has been removed. (Still got it though.) I don't know how to judge the condition of the car electrically, I just know EVERYTHING worked right up until the accident. After the crash, the fire department cut the damn cable that goes up to the fusebox instead of the battery cable! When my son was taking out the gage cluster, he turned the key far enough to crank the starter, so we know THAT still works.
The interior was in good shape. Not perfect as the darker colors tend to show wear on the color dye more than Pearl Beige, but a Leatherique treatment will definitely restore it's luster. Right now, and for the next few days, it's raining cats & dogs here, so good photos of it will be difficult.

Yeah I picked up some "period correct" M6 wheels for my 635 for $100. I actually have some TRX's with decent tread...well the fronts are good the rears are passable. Just looking out for the future. If I put the car on the road it'll have some modern wheels and tires, but if I restore it it'd be cool to have the TRX's

Whole car gone. Sorry I didn't get photos...but for the price I was asking (and it was VERY negotiable), it was gone quickly.
