PARTS! 601 Red 850R totaled

Post by JRL »

Totaled 601 Red 1997 850 R sedan almost all PARTS available!!

I wound up with this R in my garage, the owner was going to take it apart here but he just got a job offer in Atlanta and has to leave ASAP so I suppose it's up to me!
He owned it since about 14K miles (bought in 1998) and it was very well cared for.

The car was repainted a few years ago so the paint will probably not match anyone's original paint

Before you ask, no Volans, he kept bending tham way back when so it has good Columbas.

The interior is borderline spectacular. The three seats have barely been sat in, (if ever) the drivers seat is very good.
I will probably spot the bolster so all will be as new like the rest of it.
Door panels are near perfect except the passenger front door fill panel needs to be bent back and re glued.

Console and wood are excellent, broken armrest rear hinge.
I guess the radio is fine, If he doesn't have it I'll make sure I get the code for it.
Complete owner's manuals in the folder.

Besides the interior which is already half out, any other parts will be removed/sold on request. I'm too old for this sh*t!
I'm not going to have a pile of 850 parts lying on the floor, I'm trying to clean up this garage not add to the mess.

Also pictures for any part(s) will be on request (I haven't taken any yet).
The rear spoiler and trunk are perfect or near perfect as are all doors. I think the hood is fine but the hinges are bent. I was a very odd but hard hit. It was a side hit (T-bone) but in front of the LF wheel at about 25-30 mph, the woman was apparently texting and never even hit the brakes!
Frame and subframe are bent, the bumper was pushed to the right about two feet. The engine was pushed to the right about 3"!

Unfortunately the front bumper is pretty well shot, that I will take some pictures and you decide whether you want to buy it to repair it.
I'm not removing the engine or transmission, too much work for too little money

Please use email (in signature) not PMs and PLEASE don't post silly questions here as I probably won't answer them unless I deem it important in general to the sale of any parts.
I'm doing someone a favor so most of these proceeds go to him so please don't bug me unless you really want or need something.

It doesn't and I asked that people email me not post or PM me. Now Evan, you're a lawyer so I know that you can read LARGE, BOLD TYPE.....
It's moot anyway.
Dash and most of the interior is gone, only the seats are available
