It it worth buying then selling for some cash?

1998 Accord Sedan LX. Body is in good condition. The tranny is out, possibly the motor too. For $3000?

 

sounds good enough to keep

 

1998 accord for 3 grand?? the trans and engine doesnt work?? wow..a good reason to put a h22 in there dont you think?? a h22a swap would cost you 5 grand max...maybe...you have a 6th gen h22 accord for 8 grand...that is still cheap!

 

i would never buy a non-running car. There are always more things wrong/missing/f-ed w/ than you know or it appears to be.

More trouble than it's worth esp. if your going over $2k + $$$ parts

 

This was my friends dads car. He just drives it to work and such. Never abused. How much for a replacment motor? I just wana try to fix it and sell it for a little profit. I need money to fund my Rb25det project.

 

IC...just the tranny then. I think rebuilt honda trannies are ~2k+install but don't quote me on that.

Engine's gone too?? How many total miles on the thing? Was there some wierd powertrain accident/loss of oil?

 

Wait a minute - No tranny or engine yet you say this car was never abused?!?! There's a worm in this apple somewhere
