Acquaintance is parting out a late (post face lift) 323 - Euro bumpers and brackets were missing when purchased; OD 5 speed, LSD, rear discs & trailing arms, Recaros, sport wheel and gauge cluster have been removed.

The rest of the car is available - odometer shows over 300K miles (actual mileage unknown); wheels appear to be 13x5.5 one-piece bbs mesh style, appears Euro turn signals have been replaced with US spec units. Small / light weight parts can be shipped, parts too large/bulky/heavy to be shipped via UPS or FedEx ground must be picked up in Sacramento CA

What’s available:
•Straight sunroof shell & doors with very little rust, rear section cut off 1 foot in front of taillight/turn signal buckets
•Good glass
•Fair dash panel (some cracking)
•Good Euro (non-a/c) console
•Good black interior panels (doors & rear quarters)
•Very good BBS front spoiler
•Replacement Behr radiator (aluminum body / composite tanks)
•Intact 2.3 K-jet engine, condition unknown
•M-20 front cross member & suspension parts
•323 struts & rear coil-over assemblies (shock/strut inserts manufacturer & condition unknown)

E-mail inquiries / requests to bja_47@yahoo.com- I don't have immediate access to the car, so it may take a few days to check for specific parts and verify their condition......

Couple of clarifications to the original post....
1) The parts that were noted as having been removed were either the parts that the car's buyer bought the car for (trans, diff, Recaros, rear brakes, steering wheel) or are already sold or spoken for.
2) The car is left hand drive - the console is asymetical, so unfortunately, it won't work in a right hand drive car.

I'll get prices for the crossmember and front spoiler as soon as I get a chance - the car's owner will be out of town until early next week.
