Found this car on Craigslist. It's still available. Same color as my -6. Is it worth buying to 'rob'/swap parts from to improve the condition of the 6? Obviously the engine and most of the running gear would be left intact, I would mainly be interested in bumpers, front hood, interior, and the myriad of small pieces. Could I get half the price back selling the leftovers?
http://boulder.craigslist.org/cto/4649104862.html Or should I leave it be for someone else to buy and enjoy? (It's about a thousand miles away, so driving/trailering it home would be no small undertaking) |

You could probably get more than half the asking price for the engine and trans. Still seams like a lot of money to get a hood, interior and little parts. |
