Looking to sell my shell to re-coop some money. I’ve spent the last few months carefully inspecting all the parts left on it, cleaning it up, repairing it, and preparing it for a swap.

**Asking $1,999**

The car:

I know. I was working on sourcing cash or selling the WRX shell. Knew it would sell fast at that price.

Good deal, I’m glad I didn’t see this earlier- I don’t think I could deal with another on-going project.

Good to see that you’re getting some money back though, sir!

I gotta sqeeze everything I can out of the thing but I’ll never make my money back. The guy who bought the transmission from me is now telling me that he thinks its stock and not ppg. If its true I’m going to have to sue the guy I bought it from. ☹

nope, someone is driving up from South Carolina.

For those of you who think this is expensive for a shell, I had 3 people trying to send me deposits for it on the 2nd day that it was on the national subaru forum. Judging from that my price might be a few dollars low.

I think justinidrivebunkrides2386 is the only one who thinks the price was high :lol

based on his history, doesn’t mean much.

I’m not a Subaru guy whatsoever and I thought that was a solid price for what it is.
