Subject is a good summary.
BaT - in its infancy and "teenage" years - used to be a place where you could sell a project car. Hence "bring a trailer."
No longer is that the case it seem unless it's pieces of a Ferrari.
I don't want to waste time with BaT since they have rejected three (100%) of my previous submissions for cars that were not project cars (at all.)
I have an '88 16V Scirocco. Cosmetically in pretty-good shape. Mechanically in need of restoration. Runs (on 3 of 4 cylinders due to lack of fuel to one hole) but has an internal transaxle issue that prevents the clutch from operating.
I will never "get to it" so it's time for it to go.
I'm not looking for a ton of money. I'm more interested in finding it a home with someone that wants to restore it or part it to enable a better Scirocco to continue on the road. (Mine has a lot of good parts on it despite needing a lot of TLC.)
So... the question is:
What's the over/under on a good place to present it?
I have some of my own ideas but wanted to hear from the collective.
