Re: SVX Broke down

Try to sell it as a complete car, non-running, buyer arranges towing.

If someone else can fix the problem, the car is back on the road.

A car this rare, if it is complete, and not wrecked, don't pull it apart if a repair can fix it. Maybe some of the "gurus" around here can better diagnose the issue, being more familiar with the car than most mechanics probably are, since SVXs are somewhat unique, and fairly rare.

Maybe it was the fuel pump. Maybe it was electrical. Maybe someone else has a spare computer that can be swapped in, and tested. Maybe it is something else. Maybe someone has a running car, that is in rougher shape, and parts swaps can keep a better-condition car on the road, and turn a worse-shape car into parts.

I can understand not wanting to deal with it... but someone else might want to fix it, and have a complete car.

If the unibody is intact, and the components are all in place... sell the car whole. Please.

There were only ~15000 of these things originally sold here. tearing one down that doesn't need to be torn down is not the best option.

What sort of condition is the car in, other than the engine not running? What model trim, what color?
