Wtb 850 T-5R Or 850R Estate To Restore

Hi, I'm looking for a T-5R or 850R estate in need of work/restoration. I'd like it to be under $1500 but might be able to push it to $2k if there aren't a lot of problems or the problems aren't expensive ones. I'm planning on doing a manual swap so problems that require some major disassembly are OK. Preference would be for a T-5R estate (any color) or a Red/Tan 850R estate. I'd jump through some extra hoops to get either of those. Might be open to a Platinum Edition estate as well.

I'm in the Boston area and I'd like the car to be within a day's drive of here (that gets me as far west as eastern Ohio and as far south as North Carolina), although I have family in the Midwest that we're due to visit so I wouldn't completely rule out anything north of Memphis and as far west as the vicinity of the Mississippi River. If the car's cheap enough that I have money left over for shipping I'm open to anywhere in the lower 48. Preference would be for a car good enough to drive home as our tow vehicle is a 99 V70 NA 5-speed, but that's a preference not a requirement.

Yeah I think I've seen that on CL. I'm really wanting an estate but the yellow sure is tempting especially at that price. Maybe if no good estates come along soon and you still have it I'll have to reconsider.....
