WTB: BRZ or FR-S with blown/missing engine - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I'm looking to purchase a BRZ or FR-S with blown or missing engine. I'd like a clear title as this is going to be a car I'd like to easily insure.

It should be in good condition otherwise. Year doesn't really matter, but the newer the better. No accident damage please.

Hoping to stay between $8k-12k, depending on the car and condition.

This should be easy if you want into a 2013 that was affected by the valve spring recall. Maybe if you place an offer out there you'll get more interest?

Curious why you care about the title status if you want one with a dead or removed engine and again if it's an autox project.

There's lots of twins at Copart though. If you don't expect a clean title.

Good call. I forgot to say, I want it easily insurable for the road. It's not just autox.

I know I can insure it, but clean title is less complicated. If I find one, great. If not, I'll buy one and gut the engine.
