I've got a 1998 ford taurus that only needs some transmission work to be a driver. VIN #1FAFP52U5WA139553, clean georgia title.
It runs like a damn champ with 165k on the clock but wont move.
following is bad:
1. Trans needs a valvebody pump (can get trans at u-pull for $65)
2. windshield is cracked ($100 replaced at u-pull)
3. a/c compressor locked up (cheap if you swap/recharge yourself)
4. car needs paint ($300 maaco job will fix this)
I'm including the following:
1. parts trans also with bad valvebody pump
2. brand new gear selector sensor
3. brand new a/c strainer
4. two very good used a/c compressors
I'm just pissed off right now that the parts trans I pulled had the same damn problem as the one in the car and I didnt check this before hauling it home. I need the room to start the body work on my civic as you can see in the pictures. You will obviously need a trailer if you come get it. I guess if I dont get any takers here, on ebay, or craigslist in the next week or two I'll have calmed down enough to go pull another transmission :rolleyes:
Once you get everything fixed, it will make a nice driver or good to resell. They book in at $2200 in fair condition ($2700 good cond.) but go for $3k-3.5k on autotrader all day long.
anyway, car is located in dunwoody. here's the pics:
