    At that price it looks like someone is giving it away. Heck what would one pay for a brand new set of Marchals? That is probably almost 1/3 of the price right there lol

    The nose is worth a 3rd of that price.

    I suspect the seller just wants to get rid of it quick. Otherwise parting it out will bring him much more than $1800.

    Wow, didn't notice it was Buy it Now... I don't think I could resist if I was closer but hauling it to Spokane WA in the dead of winter doesn't sound like fun to me.

    Hood release lever is broken off. Cat is gone.
    Little rust a big plus. Over 100k miles from the looks of it.
    Missing parts for engine and interior. Water stains from sunroof?
    Lots of time and money to get that one reliable and more presentable.
    Many areas to fix and go through.
    150 miles away, fair price for parts alone. Overall too rough for me.
    Big project good luck to buyer.
