I know that for sale is posted in classifieds I'm trying to get if I'm asking a fair price. I'm possible getting a new vehicle and wanted to sell the saab but am trying to figure a fair selling price as I'd rather this be kept by a saab lover. I'm more selling as a great parts car but it can be driven as I do daily.

It's a 86 900S. It was rear ended by a 16 year old mini van wheeling girl, at a red light at 35. The right rear was buckled out on the car. Just at the crumple zone. The frame I'm told is straight and it's just the body. I think it was in a accident by previous own but no records of it. It does drive fine. The passenger door sticks abit from it.

Anyways I put love into it from day 1 and sadly the body from accident doesn't reflect it. It drives fine.

I have added the following:
The tires are all in great shape 70%+ wear left
New front brakes (rotors brembo,rebuilt calipers, new pads) 5K miles ago
Rear new pads and one new caliper
Exhaust (Swedish Dynamix cat back Hi flow exhaust, carsound HI flow cat)8K miles on it.
K&N air filter 10K miles
Hella Ralleye lights
Hella air horns.
Seats in good cloth tan sport package???? shape minus one cig. burn from previous own in driver seat.
New voltage piece in alternator
Battery less than a year old
Plugs and wired 10K miles or less.
Transmission works fine, no bad syncro's suspect rebuilt by previous owner. Clutch is a bit shakey but works fine minus hardcore driving.
All electronics work perfect.
It has rust, and a nice crack in the windshield.

Motor has started to do a 2-3 drop leak after parked. I suspect a gasket going, but haven't checked.

Do you guys think the parts alone would make this car worth 800 dollars? That was my target to low or high? Trying to sell it fast if the new car goes through but don't want to post tell I'm sure?

It's a parts car that can be driven home. Made a turkey day trip 600+ miles round trip and worked fine.

It has some quirks like, after starting it you have to gas it a bit so it doesn't die and have to drive. Make sense? And a quirky hesitation from 2500 to 2800 in 2nd and 3rd mainly.

What do you guys think more less????
Thanks for any help

Michael
