1999 Grand Am for sale

[coyotebait]

Two days before my son left for Basic Training, his car died. Appears to be a broken cam.
Aside from it not running, everything else works well. Power windows and locks, cruise, auto headlights, new ac blows very cold.
I'm looking to sell it as is. I'm located in Ventura county, California.
Asking for $800 but will consider most any offer.

A broken cam would be highly unusual, good luck with the sale.

Can't imagine it being anything else, rocker arms at the back half of the motor don't move when cranking it over (both sides)

definitely cam shaft related but could also be wiped cam lobes. Have you considered a charitable donation of the car and claiming a value greater than what you are currently asking to sell it?
