S13 hatch: $903.59 obo!!!
what i've got here is a 91 5 speed converted hatch that is slightly better than a shell. i bought it thinking it would fulfill duties as a daily driver, but a chronic overheating problem due to a bad headgasket prevents this. i bought the car a little more than a week ago from an individual here on TR, had it registered, drove it a few days and then found out about this issue. the overheating doesn't prevent it from running, but it does require you to top off the radiator after just about every 15-20 mile trip. if you are looking for a decent project shell and you don't have a tow truck this might be ideal because it will most likely get to anywhere around tampa without too much trouble.
the body is in pretty good shape (though i did break the rear quarter window in fit of frustration). a few dings and dents, the biggest one being a less than fist size dent in the passenger side rear quarter panel. overall, i think i would straighten out nicely or make a good drifter if that's your thing. the most striking (or appalling, or awe-inspiring, or repugnant...take your pick) thing about the body is that it's waving the panda flag: white fenders, rear bumper and roof; black doors, hatch, hood and front bumper. cool beans. if you want pics i can send them to ya, but they were posted here in another thread before. just search "panda 240" or something along those lines and you might find it. if not, just pm or message me and i'll get you some pics. the car looks as it did then with the exception of the previously mentioned broken window.
if it helps, the ac blows cold, though it doesn't blow very hard through all the vents. the dash was replaced with one that is crack free so maybe the vents aren't perfectly lined up or something was neglected somewhere in the replacement of the dash. a crack free dash isn't necessarily easy to find so maybe that is a selling point.
one possible hurdle is that since i just bought and transferred the title so recently i don't have the title from the tax collector yet. the title is clear and it's registerable, but it's somewhere in the florida state bureaucracy on its way back to me. hopefully i'll have it this week and the car gone soon after.
i am paying for my indiscretion at the time of purchase and you might have a chance to benefit. i would just like to see this eyesore and everyday reminder of my stupidity gone, disappeared and out of my life. i'm entertaining offers and if no one pays me more than a junkyard would pay then it's off to the crushers in a week or so.
if you have any further questions feel free to ask here on tr. if you wanna talk, bs and haggle over the telephone i'll pm you my number or you can pm me yours. either way, that would probably be the easiest way to get a hold of me.
remember, i'm negotiable on price. i'm not desparate though. whether this thing goes to an upstanding member of the tampa community or to the melting pot somewhere in china i don't care. it would be cool to see someone turn it into a beast though.
sorry for the big post, but thanks for reading.

haha. i'm pretty sure dj won't buy the car now...not really talking to me much. i'd sell it back to him, but for no less then ten million dollars and we all know that's just unreasonable.
the car is indeed a dual cammie. i'd take five for the piece anything less than that and i'd probably just take the doors, the cams (to sell to mr 170k240), the hatch, maybe a few other little pieces and junk the rest. i'll just make up some cash parting out those little pieces.
thanks for the interest/input.
