I bought a parts car for my project and once I get everything I need off of it I'm going to part it out. But what I was thinking of doing is sandblasting and repainting the frame, but I only want to do it if I could make a fair amount of money. How much do you think that would be worth?

 

Since 3rd gen cars are UNI-Body construction without the so called frame, I think your idea is worthless.

 

I mean the whole unibody, stripped of interior and body panels, no suspension or glass.

 

You get probably about 200 bux from the scrap yard that pics it up.

 

Ha alright, thanks

 

Sorry man, I wasn't trying to be a dink. I'm assuming the parts car you want to do this work on will be nothing but a roller after your done (no engine or transmission). With that you'll be lucky to sell it, you could but if you do, consider it luck. In that case, you're looking for the price of what a local junkers for cash will pay. Around here it's around 200'sh.

 

agreed as above, since these cars are somewhat plentiful right now their isnt really a high demand for a 3rd gen "frame"

 

FWI I purchased a rolling chassis from a member here for $250. It is a Texas car and it shows! It did not have doors or fenders and most of the electrical harness. I think I got a good deal on it. It's sooo clean from any rust but it is just a part of a car. (is a 1986 ws6 t-top T/A part though!)
I have restored more than a few cars, and with this one I won't have to do any rust repair! You guy's in the south are lucky, most cars this old are shot up here.

I think the worst part of trying to sell a chassis is that not a lot of people are willing to go to that much work to put a car together.
For me I have a lot of parts and this way- I did not have to take it apart it was already a part.
