No, not with the AC issue and rust. An '89 in good condition might bring $2,500 - $3,000.

I'm in a tough spot with it. My intent was to just drive it until it needs a large cash infushion then part it out, knowing there is a limited market for such a car. From experience the parts are worth more than the whole, but just having completed stripping a car bare I don't relish doing it again. Plus this one isn't anyway near ready to die.
I agree, less rusty ones(not many around Chicago) could be had for the price. Wishful thinking perhaps that it's solid driveline and chassis would compensate.

I understand how you feel. I'm in the same position with the blue touring, and possible the silver touring. I need neither, really don't have time and room for the blue one with the rear damage, but hate to part it out.
