Guessing no insurance? Strip it and sell whatever parts you can off it

theres probably quiet a bit thats ok. I mean if you have no insurance then not much hope, unless you want to try fowles auction group. They sell mashed cars as well. Hope no one was hurt

Put a post up in the car parts section advertising most parts for sale. If people enquire, go and check it if is OK and sell it if it is.

Did you come out of it OK?

As others have said, what happened?

somehting just occured to me, if you didnt have insurance, hence u got the car now for scrapping, did you hit anything else that now needs repairs? how much are you in debt for that if you dont mind me asking?

Kris

That is a crying shame. ;) I spotted you the other week in Berwick

This was 1 very nice black skyline..

Also spotted that P plate so if you had insurance(well thats not worth a cracker)

I would strip every good part of it and start selling her bit by bit

I know i would be interested in 1 or 2 bits

Sorry for your loss mate.

Thank your lucky stars firstly you can ask this question.

Hope no-one was injured, your pride would have though.

Buy a lottery ticket this weekend.

On the parts side forget selling it as pieces.

Advertise it as wreck for sale in the Forum , most of the people in the used car section

know what the parts are worth and know how to sell them.

Shit happens, sell the thing and move on.

man thats bad....mine cost the insurance company about 12-13k and it wasn't half as bad as that...btw like the grill fits prefect and looks nice.

hope ur ok mate...and yeah just be glad ur still aournd to post the pics

KJ

shit...

sorry to see that man, sound like you got out of it ok tho. Almost exactly the same thing happened to me mate but i got hit in the drivers side door and had it written off. I just stripped the shit out of it and sold everything. Made a decent amount of mney back so the financial hit wasnt as bad as it could've been.

if your local and you need a hand to strip it gimme a PM, i got tools, ramps, jacks everything

    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
    • As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.
    • but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
