What to do with my '93 (long)
 

Can anyone give me any advice as to what to do with my old stang? The car has issues, specifically, The balencer is bad, engine burns a good amount of oil on 2 cylinders, tranny needs work/new clutch(?), brakes, exterior paint is rough (from sitting for over a year), and misc minor things (i.e. sterio doesent play tapes, headlight on one side has filled with water).
I have 2 possibly 3 parties interested in buying it, but nothing definate yet, for about what it took to pay her off (around 1500). Right now, I'm waiting for the title to clear and be transferred to my name.
You guys think I should sell it as is, or maybe strip it for the eng/tranny (a friday transmission, already had 2 rebuilds) wiring harness and seats for my 66? Either way, I guess I need to get rid of her, since I dont really have anywhere I can work on her right now, and can definatly use the money. I wish I could fix her up as the daily driver, and keep the 66 for weekends, but wish in one hand....

Suggestions?

Thanks,
Jorge

If it were me, I'd try to sell it to someone who was going to fix her up, if not, just try to get what you think it's worth. I wouldn't cut the car up, but that's just me. ~Brian

If you need the money, I'd just sell it

Well, the money would help, and I would also like to see her back on the road. Stripping her is kind of a last resort, but there seems to be a fairly limited market for "fixer uppers" around here considering for a little more you could get a runner to start on. Even thrashed but running stangs can be had for about 2-3k around here. Also the parts would give me a starting place for some of the stuff I plan eventually for my car (i.e. T-5 swap). If I had a garage where I could work on it, I wouldnt even think of selling, and just start fixing it up slowly.
If the buyers I have lined up dont come through, maybe I'll try to find a way to take it up north w/ me. Heh, 2 project cars, the g/f'll love me:rolleyes:
Oh well, thanks for the input folks, g/f just doesent get the attachment thing, especially for hanger queens,lol.
