    Default Question about 88 supra...

    I have an 88 supra targa 5 speed. Red interior with a blown head gasket on the 7m motor. Full custom 3" cat back that sounds wicked. Car still starts right up, but I don't need another car, so I need to do something with it. Would I make more parting out the 7m and entire car, or fixing it and selling it?

    Needs front struts BAD, but that and the gasket are the only issues.

    take the cost of fixing add it to the kbb value of a poor condition car. take the value of the car running in good condition which ever is greater is your answer.

    ex:
    costs 800 to fix
    kbb value in poor condition is 1000
    1800 total

    kbb value in good condition is 2400

    2400-1800=600 profit

    thats how i do it anyways.
