i need opinions on what to do... a guy i kno locally, has a camry wagon. 92 or 93 (cant remember but i know it has a 3vz in it. anyways, it runs great except for the power steering. (fill it up and its empty somehwere btwn 25-75 miles) not really sure. but its a major leak..anyways, he want to sell it to me. it has blue int. and green ext. if i buy it, i will be parting it out most likely, or if someone want to buy it from me, i can get the power steering fixed. then u could offer me something,

^ it runs perfect. he says it does anyways (and i believe him)
but i do think it needs a power steering rack and pinion.( i think like $450 installed) and it needs a front console. (like the cupholders and stuff. but thats it , im pretty sure.

If yours is a 4 cilynder, fix the power steering, keep it and sell your wagon.
The leak could be something easy / cheap to fix....
If you end up selling parts, I would like to buy a few interior peices.
Good luck!
1. mine is a 94 1MZ
2. even if it was a 4cyl, i would NEVER sell my car. NEVER EVER. my grandma bought it new. and i have several grand in it.
3. if i part out, i will post on wagon sign in first.

i think what im gonna do, is whenever i buy it...post it up and see what offers i get for the engine and tranny (considering thats the most expensive) . as well as offers on the whole car.
thing is, they would have to pull the engine.& tranny. i dont have the tools or equipment...but i kinda do want to part it out, cuz i need a few of the exterior pieces. so we will see what happens
