Scrapping 2004 Base Model Soon
 

Most of the in-demand parts are already gone, but if there's anything you want before I scrap it at the end of October, post your request in this thread and I'll let you know if it's available.
Odometer shows 190,000 miles, but at some point it had a factory replacement engine installed. 2004 2.7L with PSM and came with factory Litronics. The engine still ran well when transmission was pulled. All 4 Brakes are there, but from what I remember at least one of the rears has a torn boot on the caliper. I'm willing to sell the whole thing to someone willing to pick it up.

Transaxle, axles, and shifter are gone.

For prices, I generally look at 'Solds' on eBay and price it lower. Located in Northeastern Oklahoma.

Parts not pictured may still be available, plus I have boxes of parts from cars that are already gone.

So far I'm sending out the engine hoist ring thingie by the throttle body and some harness parts for Litronic Headlights. There's still a lot of car left including a (running before removed) 2.7L 3 chain engine.
I'm going to be delayed in scrapping the car due to a temporary restriction of lifting no more that 15 lbs for a few more days, but then it's coming apart and going away.

From out of your many boxsters and engines, do you happen to have an IMS from a 3-chain/987 motor? I'm looking for the one with the large bearing. Porsche also installed these into the replacement engines that were changed out under warranty, so you may have come across those in the 5-chain/986 motors also. Thanks!

The engine in this one is a replacement and it's an '04 model so there is a chance. The flywheel is still on, but I can take it off and get a look. Do you know if there's an easy way to see or measure without pulling the flange?

Oh, I thought you'd want to sell the whole engine as one piece since it runs.
It has this big nut on the shaft, I think it's recognizable:

That should be easy to spot. I may list the engine locally for a week or two, but I don't want to deal with shipping it. There's not a lot of demand for three chain 2.7L engines around here, so I'll probably pull it apart and scrap it. Taking these apart is a lot more fun than assembling them.

I'll let you know in the next day or two which bearing I find.

Haha, yeah, lots of fun, especially with power tools :D. Sounds good, thanks! :cheers:

Yep, Here's what I saw today:

Here's my plan: I'll have the engine listed for local pick-up only until I have enough free time to take it apart. As long as nobody buys it first, you can have the IMS.

That's awesome. The backside of this engine looks cleaner than my 22k mile-motor that i'm working on. This hasn't run much.

I'm looking for the wiring harness in the left rear wheel well. The connector on my 99 has disintegrated

Here's the harness for the left rear speed sensor and brake wear sensor. $15 shipped to Texas. I do PayPal at https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/JonCarparts?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US

If you'd prefer 'new' I have seen them listed at several online vendors:

That looks just right. Going to PayPal now. Thanks so much.

Thanks Jay, I have your shipping address now and will mail it today or tomorrow.

Anyone else? I'm pulling the easy stuff that I can put on a box, but planning to haul the husk to the scrap yard tomorrow. There's plenty of wiring harness I can still clip if I know before I take it.

That one is gone.

...but I still have another parts car and a boxes of parts from past cars. Just ask if you need anything.

hello 78F350,,.would you happen to have a 03'-04' top frame..? Thank's Frank

Of course I do, but I've been avoiding responding to your queries in the past because it's a pain to figure out shipping.

Lets figure this out. Do you have a 'canvas' that is made to fit on the later model frame or do you need the complete top in good condition? Both of the '03/'04 tops I have on hand have some wear and no liner, but are fully functional. I think that shipping would be simpler with a bare frame.

Shipping might not be a problem if you are flexible on time. My oldest grandson is getting his driver's license any time now and I'm planning to give him a Prius. I plan to drive to Phoenix some time in the next few months with it and could arrange to meet. ...or I can see what FedEx will do with it.

At the moment I have no idea on a good price or shipping cost.

Lol,..I should have known you do,..I have a nice 03'-04' glass window top, on a 2002 frame, and it is very hard to do any maintenance,( so looking for a 03'-04 frame)..and yes I can wait a bit Bc I intend to work on it over the winter,..I hope to work something out for pick up ( in Phx ) or shipping which ever is the most convenient for you ,..Thank's Frank

Homeoboxter, The engine sold today. Although I would have liked to send the IMS shaft I have so little available time right now that it could have taken another month before I had time to tear down the engine. A decent running engine, it's now a backup for a car with over 180k miles.

Frank, In the next few days, I'm likely to swap a few tops around as I figure out which cars are priority projects and which may be passed on. I'll get some pics of what you can have and maybe I'll have a better idea of my travel plans next week.

Great Thank's F350,..I appreciate that !

Thanks, I understand, that look like a great engine with low miles, would have been a waste to tear it down for an IMS. I'll keep looking. These kinds with the larger bearing either sell quickly on ebay or they just ask way too much for them and they never sell.

Frank, here are pics of the top. I have it removed from the car now. I'll message you this weekend with a price and better idea of the plan. The frame is good, no liner and some scratches in the canvas.

Hello,

I'm also looking for a glass window top including the frame. I see you mentioned you'll be traveling soon. If you have another top, or that other sale doesn't work out for you please let me know. I'm on the west coast but could travel a bit for the top, or I'm also open to seeing what kind of shipping options there are if you have any estimates.

Thanks!
Alex

The top that flmont is buying is the only one that I intend to sell right now. If I decide to sell the other one in the near future I'll let you know.

Ok sounds good, thanks

Do you have a decent Arena Red passenger door?

No, only black and (the lighter) blue.

Do you have the aluminum spacers that go on the transmission mounts? For some odd reason I took off and lost them on one of my mounts.

It's possible, but I'll have to dig a bit. captainawesome got the mounts off this car for his wide body 914 project, but I may still have a spare one from another car. I'll get back to you tomorrow evening. Just the right side? From your post:

http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1732323545.jpg

Dan, I found one spare mount to pull them from. Do you want them?

http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1732323202.jpg

what's left? looking for bits and pieces.

Bits and pieces are what is left. Ask and I'll see if I can find what you want.

You wouldn't happen to have the two AC system pipes that run underneath the car on the passenger side (it's a 2000 Boxster S), would you? Part numbers 996 573 091 01 & 996 573 092 01. Based on the parts manual, these seem to be common to all 986 variants. I'm replacing the compressor, drier, and Schrader valves and happened to notice that both of these pipes have been partially crushed, probably by a misplaced jack (it may even have been my jack). Each pipe is $200+, and I have spent almost all my allowance on the new compressor. The existing pipes are not leaking, but it doesn't seem smart to do all the work with compromised piping.

Cool. Take a swing at this.
Battery hold Downs, metal clips for attaching the under tray in the front, ocean blue metallic bumper plug for front tow hook, screws to hold the covers under the hood next to the battery, Ocean blue metallic bumper section for repair, Ocean blue metallic ashtray , Ocean Blue metallic central console, stuff like that.

Alex, the last two cars that I scrapped both had damaged tubing. I just did a quick search for your parts and Pelican has a decent deal on the 99657309101 if you can get the free shipping with it. Looks like the other one is NLA at most places. There's one on eBay in Latvia that's under $100 shipped.

I sold both of my blue cars several years ago and I don't think that I have anything left in the color, except possibly a bumper plug. Screws and clips I should be able to find. I'll report back within a couple days.

Thanks, John.

For now this is all that I have available. If you message me an address, I'll mail it to you.

Would you happen to have a RH window regulator?

I have a complete RH door that I can remove one from, but I'm not going to be available to do it until after January 24th due to work and travel. I still recommend that you buy one new instead of used. A 20+ year old window regulator is more likely to fail soon than a new aftermarket one.

Meanwhile if you receive a message from anyone saying that their friend has one and to contact them off the forum at a Gmail address, Do Not Reply; It's a scammer.

Hey Friend, I got a little care package of bits and bolts yesterday. I do appreciate it.
