no offence taken. I understand the condition and the low demand for these cars today.
Yes, $ too high for body but parts are all good.
Not so interested in $ but rather someone that can use the car.
There has been a lot of good times with the car.
Parts car price? what would that be?
can anyone help with posting pictures?
thank you

Suspension/Steering / how to bleed master cylinder?
Yes TEVES II ABS
Seem like the master need not be bleed? all fluid goes into the accumulator and then to the cylinders?
So, I started bleeding the system as mentioned, but I did press the pedal ALL the way down not 1/2 way. ??
The pump came on and reached full pressure and shut off.
Please note: My lines are rusted but I thought that I had replaced enough of them.
Well, as I was bleeding the rear cylinders the rear line at the front of the car BURST so violently it vaporized the oil into smoke.
I'm guessing because of the 2,600 PSI.
Is this a normal function? 2,600 PSI in the lines and the wheel cylinders? how does the system handle that pressure?
The rear cylinders did bleed but not with the pressure I thought it should have, in fact not much pressure at all.
So I'm replacing the "rears" supply line with Dbl. beads & couplings. Difficult but I think doable I think.
I'll try again.
Thank you for your future comments.

Suspension/Steering / how to bleed master cylinder?
I did a complete brake hardware change out.
rear steel lines installed center steel line made.
now I need to bleed the system.
How is the master cylinder bled?
Are there bleed fittings on the housing?
(Front calipers are bled like any standard system.)
(Rears are bled with charged accumulator. key on - pedal down - accumulator pump running.)
But, where are bleed fittings on the master cylinder?
Can I fill the reservoir and then bleed the calipers?
Your help is appreciated Thank you
