Totaled 951 with LSD for sale....finally..
OK... So back in September of '06 I was in a collision with an SUV. I tried to find the original post after the accident but it's not there, so I'll tell the story again...
4am in Brooklyn I was driving to my GFs house. Out of nowhere a Grand Cherokee comes flying into the intersection in REVERSE!! It hits me in the drivers fender. It then speeds away. It turns out the Jeep also hit a pedestrian who ended up dying, and hit two parked cars. The owner of the 06 Grand Cherokee, who lives in government housing...(police detective failed to mention that to me, I had to find that out on my own) reports the car stolen after the police come to her door the next day. I didn't have full coverage, stupid me. I had to sue the Jeeps insurance, the Jeeps owner, and John Doe (driver of Jeep). Two years later after much stalling, Jeeps owner admits to owning 3 cars (while living in the PJs), and having two sons that are old enough to drive. Insurance has finally settled with me. I could have dragged it on for another year and tried to get more, but I want it over. After my lawyers cut, plus parting the car, I will walk away with what the car was realistically worth at the time. Nothing really in terms of pain/suffering compensation.
I do not want to take apart every little piece.
Ideally, I would like someone to come to Queens and take the engine/computer/everything under hood, LSD tranny, and chassis in one piece. I would take everything else off the car such as the interior, and decide later if I want to sell or keep as spares for the cabriolet. I may or may not pick at the suspension. Anything I don't take off would be a bonus to the buyer of the engine/tranny/chassis.
Details...
Car was hit in Drivers front fender. I guess you can say it was a high hit since it was the back of a Grand Cherokee. It pushed in fuse box and brake booster. Drivers door doesnt close properly, and sunroof doesn't fit right because A-pillar took some of the hit.
'87 Engine 90K miles, stock, never chipped or tracked or abused. I had recently done belts/rollers/waterpump a few months before the accident. Running perfectly at the time. The engine was still running fine after the collision. I remember because the throttle got snagged by the brake system which got pushed over. I immediately turned off the engine as the car was still rolling down the street (brake system failed after collision).
LSD tranny shifted perfectly
I have a 3" Lindsey exhaust on the car that I will most likely remove.
Hopefully someone is interested in a nice 951 engine and LSD.
Please no requests for other parts/screws/buttons/doohickeys at this time.
Any offers? Suggestions? Anyone wanna say what they WOULD offer if they were looking.

The interior is actually not Linen. It's the one that's slightly darker. I didn't realize until I tried to put a part in my cabriolet which actually does have Linen interior. As for selling it, or for what price, I don't know, and some of it is in my cabriolet, but I'm planning on taking it back out when, if ever, I get the time.

how much for the lsd and tranny?
Oh, and is the torque tube different from the one in an N/A? If so how much for that?
(Have plans to drop an LS1 in my '86 N/A. This would be just the thing.)
