what is an 01 corolla worth that needs new engine?

[jimbob3]

My engine is done and I think its time for a new vehicle rather then replace the engine. was offered $800 by wrecker. What could I expect to get private sale?

Did run great until yesterday and body in great condition for 10 year old car. New clutch installed 5 weeks ago . 100,000 miles

01 sport
5 speed, cruise, AC

thanks for any help...

Hard to say exactly, a great deal depends on the demand for the 8th gen Corolla and how you want to handle it (sell car outright or part out over time). Body shape, color, any cosmetic defects, trim level, what exactly let go in the engine (i.e., if there is a salvageable core), etc. all factor in to it.

In my area - a good running 2001 Corolla CE with power package and 5-speed with 100K on the clock - runs for $2500-$3500 for a private party sale. I've seen a few that were a little rough, but still ran for around $1500.

Call around different shops for an approximate cost for an engine swap. Then hit up NADA price guide or use Kelley Blue Book online to figure out what a running car in your condition is worth - subtract the cost of the repair and you'll have a pretty fair starting valuation for your car.

want to part with your wiring harness and coil packs? cus i need them to finish my project. where are you located too? cus if your willing to part it out, i might be intrested in dropping alot of cash in your hands.

also i originally purchased my 99 with a blown engine for 300. this was a private sale. it had 150k on it.
