Location: Under the weather. (Seattle)
Location: Seattle, WA

Main details:

Runs and drives the same now as before the accident.

211,000 miles with all associated wear and tear.

Engine runs strong...Feels like all 300hp still there.

Appears to have decent shocks, which make it less wallowy than it could otherwise be.

Laggy drive-by-wire throttle closing...Might or might not be improved by a good cleaning.

Shifting will not drop into next gear until revs match...Might just need fresh trans fluid, might need synchros.

Light gear whine.

Squirmy rear on hard accel, control arm and/or panhard bushings probably shot.

Hit in rear quarter panel. Damage to exhaust, bumper cover, tail light, outer panel, inner panel, possibly trunk panel, and possibly internal quarter panel convertible brace.

Needs tires.

Insurance is giving me $1900 for it, so that's what I'm offering it here for. Due to state law, will be sold with bill of sale only. Could probably also provide whatever other documentation would be required to apply for a salvage title.

Use it as a Locost donor, use it as a donor for something else, part it out, whatever.

Must have a commitment by Sunday, or insurance can keep it.

Going back to the insurance company.
