Whole car or parts?

Postby offroadrabbit » Tue Jul 22, 2014 1:30 pm

'89 900S, with a stripped down interior for rallyX and a bunch of repairs I it more valuable as a running car or as individual parts? I really don't wanna part a running 900 but I'm a rally driver before a Saab enthusiast...

I couldn't take the whole car, but might enjoy the clutch and lightened flywheel...

The problem with trying to part it is the risk of selling 3 essential parts then nothing... And having a worthless paperweight that no one wants
I'm in Vancouver Canada, just so people are aware.

That IS something to think about... you sell 3 things off the car and nothing else you have a pile of un-sellable scrap metal that's only worth the tin-weight.

Well, why not post some pictures and a F/S thread, and see if you get ant bites for it whole? If not, then sell parts, and scrap the shell.

I think that's the best way to go, covers both options that way too.

I'm in the same boat right now, just with my 03 9-5 Aero wagon... Need to put out a few "feeler" threads.
