Default R.i.p. 1996 Gsr

well the worst thing that has happened to me has happened. I was on the I-5 in So. Cal. when i fell asleep behind the wheel(it was like 3:30am). Next thing i know im going sideways across all 4 lanes and a semi truck comes up and i dont remember the rest of it. All i know is that i started to take pics of it (which ill post as soon as i get a chance), then i was in the ambulance. Well the body of my car is done for. My question is do you think ill make more money parting it out or selling it to some junk yard?


BTW, my car looks like a crushed and opened can of sardines and i still managed to walk away with a messed up neck and some cuts on the side of my head.

Sorry to hear that. It is always sad when bonified car lovers get into accidents. Luckily you are still alive and that is all that matters.

You will make more parting it out assuming you can find the buyers. Is the engine alright?

Glad to hear you are alright man. Its always bad news to hear about a car dieing, but its always great to hear about a person living. You'd probably be better off parting it out... how much damage did the engine take, or do you not know yet?

Definatly part it out. You'll get alot more money then the petty cash a yard will give you. Once you part out as much as you can then sell it to a yard. Most yards love tegs cause us teg owners and civic owners strip it.
