Hi All,

Attempting to sell my project before resorting to a part out. I purchased the vehicle 5 years ago with a blown engine in the hopes of bringing her back to life. Purchased a motor online and had a shop swap in the new motor. The first start up with the new motor revealed some top end noise and it's been sitting ever since. I no longer have the time, space or funds to keep the dream alive.

Here are the specifics:

2001 Boxster S
Clean title - It is currently registered non-op.
160k on the ODO

Many options - PSE with valve button, Litronics, OEM short shift kit, Sport seats, turbo twists etc. (more info on the options sticker in the photos)
Exterior: paint is oxidized from sitting outside before moving into the garage
Interior: pretty trashed, might be salvageable/repairable
Engine: top end noise. My mechanice took apart one bank to diagnose, its still in pieces.

Asking $3k OBO.

The car will need to be towed. Car is located in SoCal - La Verne, CA.

Thank you.
