Default Totaled my car... It is for sale if anyone is interested

Last wednesday I hit a tree head on driving through a complete white out of fog. The motor and tranny shifted over a little, the tranny cracked and the upper pullies on the motor bent. I put the car on the lift and the motor was still ok but I could not get it to start due to the front of the car being crumpled up.. It shut off after I hit the tree. The rear is still good with a TA performance cover on it, and i have the list of parts on it in the sig, BMR suspenstion, short shifter etc. The rims are still good, needs back tires, fronts are new. The SFCs are bent though so those are no good. The center concole broke apart and both the air bags came but the rest of the interior is good. Driver door is good and the rest of the back half of the car is good. I am bringing it to the Stafford Springs swap meet tomarow if anyone would like to come look at it. The D.O.B on the door is 7/02 so it is one of the last ones that went through the factory. I dynoed 341 to the wheels with an intake, cat back, and a tune. If you guys have any questions call me on my cell phone tonight because I will most likely check this one more time tonight. My number is 203 414 2122. Thanks Joe

I am asking 5K for the car or best offer. I do not have any pics of the car because my digital camera is broke. I know its hard to say anything without pics but if anyone wants to shoot me a offer or come down and look at the car this week let me know. I will try to get some pics but its hard for me working full time and going to school I really do not have time for anything these days

Sorry to hear about your car. Glad you're ok though! Plan on getting anything else to replace it?

I dont think I am going to replace it anytime soon. I am just going to finish college and get my carrer going before I get another nice car. I would consider the new Camaro, or a vette.

Yep, I bought mine back for $1,400 then sold the engine for $1,800, the trans for $1,200, the interior for $300. I still had my 12 bolt and a bunch of misc. parts too.

I'd definetly try to get it off the insurance company.
