That's my thoughts as well. But, I doubt that it's turbo seals this time.
The question is what to offer him for it. He's asking $5K but he knows that's ridiculous...........he fully understands the cost of a new engine...........the vehicle was "diagnosed" by the dealer.
I'm inclined to offer him $1200. due to the excellent condition of the body. He'll take it if nobody else is interested. I don't think he can get that much in scrap value.
