I am posting this now to see if there is much interest. I have to finish removing the damaged body tub from the car so it is for the moment is a rolling chassis. I am asking $1000 obo for only the frame without any suspension, steering or drivetrain components, but the rest will be available for sale eventually. The frame number is 426 and is from VIN 891 that I am parting out. This car could NOT be saved. For those interested the car was hit in the right side so the chassis is dented but the front and rear are undamaged. The chassis appears to be straight and will update and post pics as I get it cleanup up/off.

Just curious if this is still available?

Yes, it is still available. I now have the car down to basically just the rolling chassis and drivetrain and I can see the extent of the frame damage. The right radius arm is bent as well as the frame. It will need to be taken to a frame shop to be repaired. The only rust spots I found are minor, nothing structural.

Send me your e-mail address if you'd like full-size pics.

When I did my frame change back in 1989, I hung on to the old frame for 19 years. Storing it in the corner of the apartment garage where I lived wasn't easy. Management didn't think it enhanced the beauty of the dank, dark garage so I was ask [told] to move it or get rid of it. After sawsalling it in half, and dumpstering it I had second thoughts. Seeing some of the frames you guys are struggling to save made me think my old one was in better shape. My apologies for destroying it. "rust never sleeps" by Bruce Benson, in DeLorean World tells about the swap. again sorry

Of course. I'll post low-res images here, and to everyone that PM's me their e-mail address I'll send out Hi-Res pics. I'll take them this afternoon before the sun gets too low.

All PM's have been replied to. Here are the latest pics of the rolling chassis with the drivetrain still intact. I don't plan on keeping anything so it's all available. Baseline prices are half of what DMCH has listed for new. The engine wiring harness is already sold, just not full pulled yet.

I may need some stuff in a month or so...
Waiting for mine to arrive to know what I will be needing.


BTW this is the perfect Chassis for an INDY500 car! Racing in circles...:rofl:
Sorry could not help it:hihi:

Everything shown is still available except the 5-speed setup which I believe I have a buyer for.

Having said that I am asking 1/2 the price of DMCH's listed prices.

I'd like $1000 for the wheels and tires. The wheels are the dark grey with the no longer available dark grey center caps.

Let me know if you would like additional photos.

Just received an offer of $500 for the bare frame. If there are no higher offers by Sunday I will strip the frame down and it will be sold Sunday/when payment clears.

How much for the engine?

Water got into the engine so it is basically good for parts only. I'm asking $750 for it before I break it down.

The 5 speed frame is sold as well as the 5 speed setup. All other parts in the pics are still available (wheels/tires, suspension, brakes, gas tank, radiator, etc).

Ouch, that's a good bend in the frame looks decent otherwise. Any pics of the car before you took it apart? I'm curious how nasty it looked.

I don't think I have any decent pics. Basically there wasn't much of a passenger seat area. I can't imagine how the occupant(s) looked afterwards. The bodytub was so damaged that I basically ended up with a front clip, rear pontoons and the complete arch over the back window left over. The front clip will probably be chopped up to fix 10077.
