If all goes as planned, I should be buying a '92 Eddie Bauer 4x4 Explorer 4 door tomorrow afternoon. The body is straight and there doesn't appear to be any rust. That's about the end of the pros. The back seat is in decent shape and the rest of the interior from there back is OK too, but the front is very rough. The dash looks to be in fair condition. The door panels are junk. The power windows are all iffy. The trans is no good. The transfer case may be OK. It's the pushbutton kind and I think it engaged correctly. It looks like it barfed power steering fluid out all over the engine recently, but other than that, the engine seems OK. It has decent power. It had enough oil and the color looked good too. The AC compressor is locked up (no belt so it doesn't affect how it runs). The truck has an alarm on it, so I'm assuming some wires are probably hacked up somewhere. I don't know whether this affects the engine wiring harness or dash wiring or both or neither, but I don't count on the wiring being good. The tires are bald, but the wheels look OK. Basically this is a very tired truck with a straight body, a maybe decent 150k mile engine, and as far as I can tell axles in decent shape (3.73 limited slip).
My question for you is this: How much could I expect to get if I parted out this truck? Frankly, there's not a lot on it that's good other than the body, axles, and wheels. The engine, t-case, dash and the back part of the interior may be worth something, but not a whole lot else. I'm just trying to figure out whether I'm getting a decent deal or not. I'll post the price I'm paying in a couple of days. Thanks!
