Help me!

Alright, so I bought a POS 97 Talon ESI for $600 a few months ago and am going to use it for a winter car and after that I was going to part it out. The engine and transmission work well, but the body is rusty in quite a few spots. It's an automatic with 136k-137k miles on it. However, I just got an offer to sell it for $800 to a guy I know who got his car totalled today. What should I do?!

Should I take the offer, part it out, or attempt to fix it up. The frame is a bit bent..

and we are supposed to know what would be best for you?

Just looking for opinions on what to do, not what would be best for me. Such as how much I could possibly make by parting it out. Some help on that would be nice, such as how much tranny+engine would go for and what-not. You know, some advice..

AWD? of FWD?

FWD.. it's an ESI

it's an ESI so it's FWD 420a.

Honestly, if it's in as bad shape as you say, or if it's in pretty bad ashape at all i would probably dump it. Odds are it won't be worth your time to fix it up, as the car mint condition is worth only about 2k.

Take it..

I for sure wouldnt part it, you would never get $800 for ESI parts, I seriously doubt it anyway. Gotta look at it in terms of your Camaro (or whatever the fuck that is in your sig :p) though too. Does it get really snowy in the winter where you are? Is the body/paint nice on the Camaro? If it gets pretty snowy where you are, I wouldnt get rid of the ESI. Is that $800 worth possibly wrecking the Camaro or having salt rust it up? I would keep it and keep the Camaro in a garage and/or under a car cover for the winter.

Sell it. You won't make much on parts since anything body related won't be any good, the engine/tranny have way too many miles for somebody to want and/or pay anything for. Plus, your making money anyway.

I would sell it if, I were you. To me, it would not be worth investing in that thing, especially with a bent frame...with all the money you were to put into restoring it, you could find a nice 420 with some nice basic extras, like rims, an intake, etc in the market. Sell it!
