well come on. buy it away. i loved the car, but if i'm helping bring another car to live or someone wanting to restore mine (which the subframe is bent on the passenger side). but i've had a few people come and go asking for parts. all i said is let me know what they wanted and when i get the word all be taking her apart and getting info.

oh btw...heard a little something. they should be trying to settle within the next month. i hope.

well i'll be honest. one is bent slighly. but i have never had a problem with it on my car. what irks me the most is those tires are brand f'ing new. not even a 1k miles on them i would be safe to say maybe just at 500. had them for about a week or 2. so if anyone is interested in the rims, the tires come with. the rims are rare, and that one can be fixed just haven't had money to get it straightend.
700 is what i've been asking. obo, but i just spent 400 on tires so i think thats fairly low already.

that hella sucks dude. glad to see you made it out of that with minor injuries. i say keep the rims no matter what ( they are rare and REALLY nice looking ) and see if you can find a chassis with a decent sub frame on it in a yard or something and go to town. its too well maintained to just let it go man...plus later on you can tell the kids how you resurrected it after it sacrificed itself to save you

i have been tossin up so many ideas around i don't know what i'm going to do. its been 2 months and i still haven't heard anything from the other guy. other then them wanting my doc reciepts. i don't have anywhere to store it to fix it up. and my tool stash is pretty low. ok, really low. i know these rims are rare, i've been trying to just find some all over and no one has any. there are quiet a few fb's around that wouldn't take much to get running, but i just haven't thought of what i want to do.

what sucks real bad is me and a buddy just got the dash cut and re wired the speakers for a cd player a week before this.

if you can, keep the car. sounds like if you stored it for awhile, down the road you'd be interested in fixing it. maybe then you'll have more time, money, and tools. or have enough money to pay to have it fixed. you may regret it if you sell the car.

well tech it's not "totalled" by a ajuster. but i'm sure once they see the sub-frame is it will. but they always have asked if you want to buy it back. a buddy bought his cavilier and camero back both for like 30 bucks. so well see.
