got the word....my storage is gone!! parting out an 85 salon

[dudeface]

Well i got word a few days back my 14 year storage spot at my parents house has now got a better use...............so my two 1985 salons I winter store there gotta go. really sad to hear that because as I am a low income live day to day, non home owner by choice kinda guy........i rent small cheap places usually with little to no parking. So I find myself having to really consider getting rid of 1 of my 3 vehicles an concentrate on just the two. The problem is just 2 years back I spent the whole summer tearing this car apart, and sprucing it up with new gaskets and paint........and now I know that selling the thing in one peice, with no paint, will get me only about 2 grand. So the other option is tear it apart, keep the motor and transmission for my main 85 salon(which will need a motor soon anyways) and currently only has a 3 speed transmission......the other is a 4 speed. I would also keep all the bezels/chrome/rims......the generic stuff, but was wondering what the SERIOUS interest would be for others out there to buy the interior parts.....door panels/bucket seats/console.......that kinda stuff. The interior is blue, and in very good shape. Going to sell the whole interior, dash and all....so let me know what everyone thinks. I may try to sell as a drivetrain free car first locally, see what kinda interest there is

anyways here is the pics of the car....

That really sucks man, But I might not even have a place for my own soon. But because I'm hell bent on keeping it, Ill sell my truck before the car. So I have to ask, What are you looking for for the whole interior? or even the whole car? I Need an interior and windshield for sure though. but I might end up paying for storage, and If I did I could take the whole car off your hands and just store it with the other one at a buddys farm.

Is two grand with or without a drive train?

Re: got the word....my storage is gone!! parting out an 85 s

thats without the drivetrain............i know it seems high, but find another 1985 cutlass salon?? i have only seen 7 in calgary in good shape in the last 10 years. you have to see it to appreciate it, and thats also a "starting point" i might take less...........

Okay, and what about just the interior? like the Whole thing? Id rather buy the whole car, but If I cant what about just the interior? Id have to make up some extra cash and come see it, when it gotta leave by?

ya i basically got till snow flies again to deal with it..............as for the interior price, probably half that price is a start. could get at least 5 hundred for the bucket seats.......300 for the console, door panels/rear seat/headliner/dash.........you do the math. interior is worth more than the rest of the car probably though. anyways if your interested hit me up
