1996 Maxima for parts - will not part out

Back Story
I acquired this car in 2003 and had it as a second car as I always had a work vehicle. It has fallen into a state of disrepair and has been sitting for a few years. I replaced the radiator core support and ran into a few more problems along the way. There was a problem starting the car when warm and I burnt out the starter. I had the car running last weekend, engine was still strong enough to easily spin the tires, not sure of what the problem was trying to restart it when warm. I have 2 young kids now and no time to work on it, I'm throwing in the towel.

1996 exhaust system so there is an O2 bung in cat. The suspension is all good, front suspension has 0 miles, rear has maybe 10K, minimal rust, updated ad to reflect that.
Low price to get car out of driveway. Could be parted out for a lot more money, I don't have the time. I've dropped the price to try and move it.
