The car is not running due to timing belt breaking and there is an oil leak up front, supposedly caused by not having the OEM oil pan drain plug. Other than that the car is in great condition would be great for engine swap or DD....it has 3.73 LSD i belevie, has 215k on clock, is basically stock and has been in California all its life... Will have pics up this weekend

Would I be able to get $1250??

Yes it is a 5-speed and fixing the car is not worth it for me, I am selling it as is and looking for a good price to sell it at. Hence the feeler, I actually shouldn't have put up a feeler because it is for sale and I'm just looking for a fair price to sell it at and get fellow bfc member a good deal. This car is prefect for a engine swap whether its s50, m50 or even m20...... According to kelley blue book the car is worth $1,385 in the condition its in(that includes needing a new engine but the rest being in great condition) I am looking to entertain offers of around $1200, once pics are up you guys will see how good condition she is in and maybe fall for her like I did when I thought I had the money to do a swap:(
