87 supra Help!

rlipp69 · 08-01-2007, 12:34 AM

I was have a 87 supra(automatic)with removable top that was sitting for 9 years.Body is in great shape(no rust)..Put new radiator,fuel pump,Fuel pump hanger,Ignitor,Cleaned out gas tank. put used motor in (7MGT) and found out it needs cam shafts and lifters.I dont want to stick anymore cash in this car and am thinking about selling it.Am i better off sell it as a whole or parting the car out?

Why does it need new camshafts?

I pulled apart and the lobs are so worn out that it needs new camshafts and lifters.The guy that sent me the motor says he will replace but i dont want to invest no more money into the car.The parts for the car are hard to come by and very expensive.Anyway i bought a Hummer H3 today.going to give my intrepid to my daughter dont need the supra no more.
