How do I seel my Volvo without a motor

Post by derekworth »

I have a 1999 V70 Turbo in beautiful condition. The only problem is that it needs a new motor. I understand I can get a motor for somewhere around $3K but am wondering about the possibility of selling it as is to someone who would like to put in the motor on their own. Can anyone help me find a potential buyer?

Have you seen this motor with only 1800miles on it? The owner was IPD and it was in a project car, so ther is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Don't know if it will fit your car, but I suspect it does. You may want to contact Scott Hart about this if you're interested. Here's the ad over on S.S. http://forums.swedespeed.com/zerothread?id=50594
You can also call Scott at IPD on Monday morning...they are on the West Coast, so take that into consideration in regards to time zone, etc.

You can't seel any car but if you want to SELL it, try this first.
I bought a 25K mile used motor from them out of a wrck for $1000 delivered. It was a perfect engine and they warranty them for life
Remember, this is a 15 hour job
