We decided to let the leg go. We really need a reliable winter car as the del sol needs a lot of work even before the accident. If I had the time(desire is probably a better word) to figure out su carbs, buy a rebuild kit, buy a su book, rebuild the carb and reinstall i would, but by the time that happened it would be summer. We have a nice summer car.

1983 b21a 240 coupe
300k +kms on odo but more than likely closer to 400k kms from what the previous owner told me.
m45 w/overdrive, sticky between 1st and 2nd and reverse sometimes doesnt engage on grades. Overdrive always engages.
Car has current safety, however, after getting backed into, the car looks best for parts. Ran great prior to winter.
Glass except windshield is very good. Door cards and plastic door bins are in good shape but brown so more than likely not usable. Rear seat upholstery is usable, front seats need foam and steam clean. Suroof that recently started leaking as i am unable to fully close it due to a partly stripped handle and track. No options car with a non-oil using or burning b21a.

I am keeping the 4 studded winter tires, new plug wires, and aux fuel filter, as one day i will purchase a 240 that doesnt require work ( ), but I am not ambitious enough to remove the brand new blower motor.

Will consider parting out, but all parts would have to be removed on the same day that way the rest can be sent to Airport PYP so that i dont have a partly stripped car in my back yard, I already have a cougar with that discription.

I would like offers, but if it would go to some one who would strip it completely of all usable parts, I would let it go for free, but bring your own tires!

A hammer and a pry bar will make that blower motor accessible in about 5 seconds...

lol, the cover only has 3 clips on it and then just the 3 screws, if it comes down to pyp, and its still there, ill take it out.

If it's going to the PYP, I'd take the side glass. We can talk about price if that becomes an option.

if the parts go to a good home, rather than to a scrapyard for nothing more than what it is, im not worried about the money. Can you come on the weekend to help me take the glass out? I would like to send it away before we head off for reading week plus the temp will be decent. for any other parts, I have some air tools and a compressor.

I know someone who could use those brown map pockets, esp driver side, if you get a chance to pull them. Absolutely no hurry to get them here, sometime when somebody (or me) is heading back and forth... if it works out.

where are you? Im heading to calgary two saturdays from now, and around easter im heading up to Grande Prairie...are you somewhere in between?

Here are some shots of the car as it stands.

the bumper/spoiler and side glass is spoken for, as is the door pockets.

You should pull those 5 panel tails and flog'em on TB, people are always looking for them. Also the blackout trim below the headlights seems to be popular as well. If the wiper motor is any good might be interested in that, ours does that stalling thing part way across which is getting old...

The motor worked good, the switch was wore out so it didnt work the washers to well.

That should work as everything else is OK just the stalling/parking issue indicating a weak motor from what I have read. I looked on FCP and they show the same part# for all years so it should work in our 90. I am tied up today but could swing by Sunday?

in the afternoon would be ok, tiffany's parents are heading to hawaii so we will be tied up most the morning and a bit in the early afternoon on sunday.

lol...now i feel bad, there a guy who wants to put the leg back on the road....but i told him already that the side windows and the wiper motor were spoken for. otherwise the rest of the car is spoken for now.

Rod, I just PM'd you about the wiper motor, if you have someone that wants the whole car don't worry about it. I was just going to grab it as it was destined for PnP, if you have a buyer for the whole thing as a running car I'll leave it be. He's going to have fun finding that 242 side glass though...
