part it out?
k well i really dont need my Z anymore, and with 140,000 miles it might be hard to get the 6500 i want from it. so i could always part it...
but at the same time that would be even harder to get 6500 from it...what do you guys think? the LT1/t56 combo could fetch a pretty penny on ebay

would be worth a decent amount but have fun pulling it out and waiting for someone to buy it and deal with the shipping/pick up and all that. i have a feeling it would really be a pain in the butt. why dont you ask like 5,000 for it?

from my experience parting it out is always a pain in the ***. you could either sell the entire thing and be done with it or have it sit around for months with things missing from it. you deffinatly wouldn't come near 6500 parting it out.

how? i payed 6200 for it and since then its had a new fuel pump, clutch, water pump, fuel pump, tire, etc, etc. i know that stuff doesnt add to the value, but besides the current problem of bad knock sensor its running perfect. i actually really shouldnt sell it. but i dont need two cars...

i think you should try to sell it whole but i dont think you will get over 5k for it. my Z had 120k i had it for about 6 months and didnt have to put a single thing in it. i payed 5k and feel it was a good deal but i coulda gotten something equally as good for a little less. good luck tho with whatever you choose to do.
