I figured I would post here first but mods please let me know if I need to move this.
I am looking to try and sell my GS as whole(not parting it out). The HG is blown and I bought another GS so I don't have the time or energy to restore this one.
194k on the motor
approx 130k on trans
Car has a lot of new parts. Timing belt, water pump, radiator, thermostat, iridium plugs, new wires, valve cover gaskets, starter, etc. There was a good amount of money put into the car but the harmonic balancer went bad and the motor overheated. I replaced the balancer and then realized that the HG is blown. The car will still start on the first try and drive but has a very rough idle. It's been parked since February as a result. However, I did just start it a couple days ago as I'd rather not have the motor seize up.
There is no major antifreeze mixture in the oil. Just a small amount of froth on the oil cap and the dipstick is clean. I'm positive it can be repaired, just not by me at this time.
It needs a pretty good cleaning and a general refresher all around. I've already removed all my stereo equipment.
I'd like to get $1000 for the whole car. (minus the wheels)

I also included 2 videos of the motor running. One at cold-start and the other at op. temperature. These were taken last weekend.
EDIT : Photobucket is being dumb. I'll upload the videos to youtube and link them here later.

Well i'm definitely interested in this. Where in delaware are you in?
Anything else besides HG? Does the heat work? AC? any trans problems? stock suspension?

Other issues I would list, no radio or speakers, all the stock stuff was removed. Has an oil leak I never got the chance to chase down and an exhaust leak. I ordered the exhaust gasket from Toyota and the exhaust has new brass bolts on it so it will be easy to change. I will be throwing some cheap 18" wheels I have laying around on it so it will definitely need tires.
