It’s a shame that a cougar right here near where I live will be going to the crusher. If I could, I’d buy it and take what I need and part it out. But not for $900. I’d roll that car away for less than half that. I don’t even have that kind of money or space for it right now. I’m going to be up there this weekend sealing up another craigslist deal with my buddy. I sent the guy an email to see if he is interested in letting me rip a few parts off it for cheap before it goes to the crusher. He’s not going to get hardly sh** for it in scrap so it would be good for him to let me pick off it.
Might try to get the back bumper and/or valance from him. If those are in bad shape I may take a door. Anyway. Waiting for response.
Yeah 900 is very steep for the condition it’s in. At least for me. My car I paid 500 for a complete car. But, I also did get pretty darn lucky to find it. Anyway, If they are in good shape I will try to get them but more than likely they will be shot. And ya they used the same stuff.
You may want to rethink that. That car has a console and dash still in it. I’d happily pay $300 for them alone if they’re not trashed. Offer him $500 for it, that’s got to be twice what he’s gonna get for scrap.
If I had the money I’d buy the car and part it out myself. But unfortunatly I don’t have the money, a trailer or a place to keep the car. I know I could easily make money off it but just don’t have the means right now. I mainly want a straight back bumper. I already have that same center console but have it stored in my parents garage. I’d sell it but want to keep it with the car.
If I had $500 I’d offer it to him. Sooner or later I’d probably have another and another and then I’d be in compitition with Don at WCCC haha.
Still waiting for a reply from the guy. I’m going to be right up in his area tomorrow morning. If I can I will try to get the console too and turn it around but I gotta get it cheap if I want to have the gas to get home haha.
900 or best offer. I’d give him a low offer and see if he’d take it. You never know till you ask. I’m with Al it has a console and dash. You can turn those for gas money.

Haha besides nless he’d take $75 I’m not taking the car home. Nor do I have any way to store it or get it back down. Still no response from him yet. If he can hold onto it untill next weekend when I get paid then I may make an offer. We shall see…
