So the old girl lost it's 3rd automatic and I'm done. I've been doing nothing but bathing in ATF for 2 years and rebuilding 4hp18q's. A cooler hose leaked, I lost enough fluid (probably overheated) and the transmission stopped shifting from 2->3 then from 1->2 so now I'm back to 1rst and reverse. Again. For the 3rd time in 2 years. Took the valve body off, got all my tools and the basement covered in ATF, jiggered all the shift valves, reinstalled and still no go. So its curtains for the old girl.
Now I've been replacing everything on this car so every last accessory works and (darn it), the body is rust free. Double darn it. And I just installed a new aero black interior complete with black headliner(triple darn it). Engine just got rebuilt (quadruple darn it)!
For those of you who have parted out.....did the parts sell? Is there enough demand to make something like that worthwhile?
How much could I ask for a parts car if I sell it whole (96 cse, 138K, green/black)? Do old 9000 parts cars sell?
I'd hate to just donate it. What does saabcentral recommend?
