2002 9-5 Linear for parts???
I didn't know where to post this but I need some advice. I have a 2002 9-5, 5 speed, 154K miles and the transmission went out. My shop told me it is something internal to the transmission but without a tear down they wouldn't be able to fully diagnose.
So here's my quandry: I have no idea what to do with the vehicle. The cost for a transmission rebuild the shop gave me, including labor is around 1.5-2K. I only paid $3000 for the vehicle 2 years ago. I am considering parting it out, but I know of any resources or avenue from which I could do this in a timely (3-6 months) manner. Overall condition of the vehicle is great shape and just recently (July) passed VA state inspection. The interior is immaculate and everything from a mechanical/electrical perspective is functional.
I'm looking for any insight, guidance, or opinion as to options on what to do with the vehicle since I don't want to pay the cost for repairs.

I'm a pretty good wrench and have done this kind of work in the past, but decided I'm going to part out as much as I can then turn it over to a salvage yard for scrap.
Any suggestions on where to post? Classifieds on here? I'm willing to pull whatever part is needed by someone and ship to their location at their cost. And if a larger part, they can come pick it up if too costly to ship. I know it will take a while but since I can garage it, I can take whatever time I need.

It went to the scrap yard last month however I stripped her clean prior to disposal. Let me know what you are looking for and I'll see if I still have it. Everything that I have left was working when the parts were pulled.

Make me an offer on the radio. It is fully operational. It won't fit in a small USPS priority flat rate box which costs $5.95, so if you want it priority it would be $12.65 or I can ship parcel post for around $8.50 I think.
