Car has 76,000 miles on it. Needs new engine. I just put a new clutch into it a week before it overheated on the highway. I have paperwork and my mechanic's information. Fluid changes were regular.

Red with black convertible top, plastic window. Cloth interior. Good interior condition with working A.C..
Exterior condition perfect except for 4 inch tear in right convertible top.

I know someone would think the time is worth it to put a used or new engine in it or else want it for parts. I have too much on my plate.
too bad it's Red. it's p'bly just a head gasket...

Hmm wonder if it's a chassis, or if it's complete just needing a motor?

If it's complete, and in good shape like stated, it would even be worth it to buy it and have it shipped across country, put a $500 motor in it, and sell for $4k.

Nah it was sold before then even reply back to me. But if it was a complete car and just need a motor or a head gasket job. If would have been worth it to have it shipped like Ben said.
