Alright people, final price cut before I try to use it in trade for another car or sell it to a wrecker yard.

$800 obo, It's a perfect restoration or parts car. It has a perfect body, with no rust, damage, or major dings. The paint is fading and the clear coat is peeling in places, but the plastics have minimal sun damage. The rear spoiler is in good condition. The interior is basically perfect, with only minor flaws on the front seats.

The car now runs and drives, the radiator went in well, and after replacing a torn hose and all of the hose clamps, the cooling system is working perfectly. There is still a big vacuum leak, but I won't be pulling the intake off since it requires so much work. I have a gasket set to go with the car. It runs, but it stalls below 1k rpm, and there is still alot of spilled oil and grease from the engine swap, so it smokes alot after driving it a few miles.

Brand new tires, brakes, calipers, rotors, and radiator.

Has a WRX 6cd changer wired in.

This is the last time I'm dropping the price, after next week, I'll do whatever it takes to be rid of this car. I have another car lined up, and would love to have some extra cash to put into it. I WON'T be parting it out, buy it as a whole or move on. You won't find an SVX with as good a body and interior anywhere else at this price.

saw that the plates on the car is ny... any rust on the car at all??

so mechanically, is the car missing any (major) parts? or just requiring complete assembly?

any details on the tranny?

title and accident history?

this sounds like an interesting prospect if i know a shop that would be able to put it together...

-No, this car was originally a Florida car (I even have the Florida plates in the trunk). There is quite a lot of undercoat left actually, the only rust on the car is the usual light surface rust typical of any 20 year old car. No holes, gaps, cracks, crunchy bits, or dangling pieces anywhere on the car.

so mechanically, is the car missing any (major) parts? or just requiring complete assembly?
-It has a vacuum leak somewhere around the manifold, I have a new gasket for it, but I'm unable to replace it myself.

any details on the tranny?
-Good condition, flushed the fluids recently. Shift unlock is not working properly, so to shift out of park you need to press the shift lock button, then press the button on the gear lever and shift, not a major problem, just annoying. Smoothly shifts through all the gears, though right now the engine isn't running well, so getting it into gear can be tricky. It stalls below 1k rpm, so shifting into reverse or into drive is a bit of a hassle, fortunately I haven't driven the car much since I fixed the cooling system yesterday. Only around the neighborhood and to get some gas in it.

title and accident history?
-Clear New York Title with no reported accidents. There is slight damage to the rear bumper from the previous owner backing into something flat (like a wall) and a picture detailing this is in the linked photobucket album a few posts down. The album also details every sign of cosmetic damage on the car.

this sounds like an interesting prospect if i know a shop that would be able to put it together...
-I'm available anytime for an inspection. PM or call 562 309 5919 to arrange an appointment.

Wow, $800 -somebody buy this car!!

still available, though my long time friend and volvo mechanic might take it in partial trade for an 850 T5R sedan, which would just about be the best deal ever.

*drool* I've always wanted a T5R. I just bought my second V70R.

those are good wagons. He has one on the lot, but I don't want to pay 3 grand for the hail damage on it.

Car is no longer available, it is going up on an auction block within the next week or two. I hope it does well, whatever I get for it will be subtracted from the cost of another car from my friend at volvo.
