I have a 1992 laser AWD turbo. I bought it recently and was gonna fix it and race it, but changed my mind and need some help. The trans has NO first or second gear. All others are fine. Has hesitation under load.....I think the ecu needs replaced. Last, there is a slight oil leak which I think is the oil pan gasket. The car is a 6-bolt/4-bolt with only 89,XXX miles!! Its super clean in and out and has some minor paint fading and 1 small dent in the drivers door, thermal cat-back, newer yoko tires and more. So.......do I:
-sell the car as is for $1200 -fix the trans and try to sell for $2000 or so? -try and fix everything? I really need the car gone to make room for my new project!! Anyone have advice or wanna come pick it up? Clean title in hand!! ANYONE??? sikorski@mchsi.com or 217-259-4417 Located in Mattoon, IL> --------------------

auto or manual?
If you're trying to post a for sale ad, you need to do so in the exchange. If you're trying to get info to fix the car, then you're fine. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Its a manual. I am looking for a transmission.....but also thinking about selling as is and just curious of others opinions. If you have a trans I am interested cause I am sure it would help the selling process!!

I would say offer the car for sale as is (which you have) but continue looking into getting the tranny fixed. There are a lot more "buy it working" than "buy it to fix" people out there.

damn frank, for that cheap you'd be better off parting it out. i will have to swing by sometime to have a look at it. from the pics it looks like its worth more than what you are asking though
