I think my 87 900 may be ready for the scrap yard. I need your opinions to be sure. It just hit 120K strong engine, body LOOKS great, fine automoble. I have been having trouble with the rear mudflaps scraping. It turns out that the area that the front of the rear trailing arm is badly rusted, and the trailing arm is hanging down about 2 inches, and is about to give way. I don't know if this is even worth fixing, as there really is no frame.
Any suggestions on parts I should keep? I have a 92 & a 93 convertible.
So far, I'm yanking the engine & trans, stereo is brand new, tires are real good, hood, the switches(ac, headlight,flasher, defrost) maybe seats.
Any ideas or suggestions? Anybody need parts in NJ?
