Default anyone interested

this is to find out if anyone in queensland might be interested in buying any it not all the parts on my car. I will hope fully find out in a couple of days, but it looks like the car is a right-off. once i find out if that is the case i will post up a list of parts avalible. parts will mostly be interior and front parts of the car. Now the reason it could be a right-off is i was rear ended by a daewoo lanos that was possibley speeding and didnt even try to stop(no skid marks) the hit was so hard that myself, my pregnant girlfriend, her neice and my 9 month old twin daughters all had to be taken out of the car threw the windows and all the doors were unable to be opened

That's not good news mate. Everyone going to be alright you think? Stuff like this is extra bad when there's little ones in the car.
Here's hoping for speedy recoveries.

the car was a 92 's' with xr6 springs, front lip spoiler(possibley xr)and bonnet with reversed cosworth vents. mechanicaly is was a 4.0l auto and run goodjust had a service recently. the funny bit about the accident was i had just washed the car for the first time since the last e-series cruise, so it was a nice clean and shinny wreck

ok for the bonnet i am thinking about $400 as i can have a custom alloy cold air induction system finished that uses a standard eb airbor and one of the bonnet vents. also i am thinking $170 to $200 for the lip spoiler. there could also be a 4.0L and 4speed auto box avalible. fro0m wat i have seen the mags are still ok as well

Unhappy

Sorry to hear that buddy. I know how it feels when this happens as I recently lost my EA Fairmont Ghia (my Daily). The bad thing about mine though is that it was on the way to an e series camp in Gippsland and had the trailer on too. This was on 27th October and still waiting to hear from insurance company. I feel your pain but as long as you, your girlfriend and kids are ok thats all that matters. Cars can be replaced/ repaired, unlike people

Damn. That looked like a hard hit. Hope everyone is OK. If you haven't done so, I strongly recommend you see a doctor. My uncle got rear ended in 2003, and has had to go under the knife numerous time because of horrible whiplash and a pinched optic nerve. It's ruined his life. I also got rear ended back in 03' but It was fairly minor.

That bites the wang man, I hope you and all the girls are OK. As said above, the car's just a matter of money/insurance.

You're gonna have fun pulling out all that cool stuff you've got inside though...

girl freinds babys are ok, she found out from the ultra sound that she is having identical twin boys. as for the custom stuff in the car, its only 8 or 9 screws and its out. ok so now i can start to organise the sale of parts off the car, if you want something off my car pm me and tell me what you want and what you are willing to pay for it. also if you want a part and you are able to remove the part we could arrange a better price as i am unable to do much for a couple of weeks and i may need a hand to remove some of the larger items.

due to a lack of interest the car is going to be sold to a wrecker or scrap metal yard minus a few selects parts some of which will be for sale. these item will be a 2 month old radiator, bonnet, front lip spoiler and the whole boot(which maybe sold already. i will let you know if i am able to get the wheels off the car and if the rims are damaged
