Hey Guys,
I had the pleasure of driving a 93 Lexus Es300 for a few months as my "gas saver" until I allowed my sister to borrow it while her Camry was broke down. Well, needless to say she did not report that the transmission began to slip and act funny (was a small leak from the pan I later found out, probly was leaking for weeks) and the transmission went out. The car has 276,000 miles on it and everything worked great on it, but it was a little rough on the eyes. I have decided not to rebuild the transmission but part it out. What parts are sought after on these cars and worth taking off to put on craigslist or ebay? I am just trying to get a good starting point as to the parts that would be worth my while to disassemble before the car is scrapped. Just trying to recoup a little $$ before she departs. Thanks fellas!

Not worth parting out? Should it just go strait to the scrap yard?

The radio is an aftermarket pioneer CD player that looks to be about 8 years old. The HVAC controls have been spoken for and as far as the instrument cluster goes, none of the needles lit up and the tach worked intermittently, and the speedo only registered after about 45 mph. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. If you are interested in anything else please don't hesitate to email me. Thomasfouraker@aol.com There are tons of good parts on here. Thanks.

What sort of condition is the woodgrain bezel around the gearshift and what price would you want for it ? Could you take a pic or two and post them up?
Thanks

The rear power antenna is not working, however I do have the Air Intake tube and it is in great condition. If you want to post or email your zip to me we can discuss a price shipped to that zip code. Thanks! Thomasfouraker@aol.com

The piece you are asking about is in pretty rough shape. It is in one solid piece but is really aged looking. I would not want to sell it in the condition it is in.
Thanks
If there is anything else please let me know! The car will be going to the scrap yard in a week or two with whatever is left.
Thanks!

I think those struts are going to be a little more work and too costly to ship to make it worth the effort. If anyone else needs parts feel free to email me! Thanks guys!

Hello,
I have a 1992 es300 with 114902 miles on her. I'm the second owner. I am looking to sell it. I dont want to part it out because other than the paint on the roof and the hood the car is in really nice shape. The only problems with her are 1 the heater core intermittantly seem to get clogged. My mechanic flushed it and changed the control valves on it hoping that would fix it but after a few days it clogged again. The drivers set belt needs to be replaced and the front air vents dont put out air. So if you can pull a dash to fix two birds with one stone she is a good car. If you want to part her yourself that works too! I'm located near Philadelphia. I've read some of the previous posts. This car is immaculate on the Dash passanger and rear seats, The drivers seat is in very nice shape. Car is blue on blue.

Bump, Many parts still available (mostly exterior but still quite a bit of interior as well). Whole Motor and sensors are still there if anyone needs powertrain parts I will begin sellings sensors, accesories, etc off of the motor. If you are in need of ANY part please email me. You can ask "zppeakcock" and "Lexucan" I am practically giving these parts away to those who need them. Its pretty much pay for shipping and a couple extra bucks. Let me know guys its just sitting outside and I do not want to scrap it with a working/running motor!
