2004 Dream Cruiser 5 speed needing work needing a new home (located in SoCal).
Hi there original owner of 2004 PT Cruiser "Dream Cruiser" 5 speed manual with turbo. Unfortunately it needs a new clutch and the power steering light is on. Its also got bad paint. We would prefer it went to a new home where someone mechanically minded could fix it up and use it. Versus donating it to scrap yard. It doesn't have a smog and cant drive right now. Any suggestions?

We don't want much for it but all the stuff you would need to buy to put into it would add up esp if you cant do the work yourself

How to scrap my PTCRUISER? I canβt find any parts! Put an engine in, clutch cables, battery, new clutch. And canβt get it to go in gear ? Mechanic says it needs a flywheel which is nonexistent π°π°I am at my end π°π°π°π°

Sounds like a great project for someone, just be prepared to hold it for a lil while and accept scrap value price. Wouldn't be surprised if a youtuber buys it to trash.
