No. I would feel bad passing this mess on to someone else. :-(

I have a conscience.

I bet if you list all the problems and set a low price I'm sure someone will pick it up as a project.

I'm only familiar with the "good money/bad money" scenario because I'm masochistic like that.


Getting rid would feel better. He knows the amount he's willing to lose if he sold it therefore he as the control. He doesn't know how much **** will go wrong in the car. It could be a neverendingstory.gif.

I will throw money after it... :-P although, I see it as more of a time issue. I can do most of the fixes myself. and do them well. I have experience with this automotive wiring, and 12v install. I just am disappointed that I have to spend time doing it at all. :-/
