Yes I do play guitar, but not very well.

Now would you mind explaining that stupid picture you posted and what nidiculous thoughts were going through your mind at the time?

GH85Carrera 11-21-2013 05:39 AM

It is amazing that the car did not have oil or gas in it when it was shredded.

Even rust bucket bugs are worth a fair amount these days.

If I remember the story correctly, it was actually a Fiero with a 308 body kit on it.

I read this on the internet, and...

ah, ok - it deserved it then

if you think about it, there are quite a few cars that should be shredded

from Fchat....."It'll buff right out..... Yeah, the complete story about what happened with this car before it met the crusher is unknown, but I saw it in person and it was obviously in a pretty major accident before is got squished (which is also pretty obvious). There was a bit of fire involved, and the "kitty-litter" stuff used to mop up all the fluids at the accident scene was tossed inside the car on the floor! Car had been partially parted out as aparent in the fact that the rear clip was cut away. I was also told at some point that theives broke into a previous yard where it was kept, and started removing parts when they were caught red-handed. One of the valve covers was taken off, instrumentation, motors, etc were in a seperate pile. Car had 73,000km on it, but most anything worth saving is either busted up or is already gone. It would have had many decent salvageable parts, if it hadn't met with the crusher but if anyone is interested, it is located at Auto World in Candia, NH. The carbs are in tact, but damaged, the rear valve cover had been removed, exposing the motor to water. They were asking $1500 for the motor, and $1500 for the tranny, but I personally would stay away from it becasue this car was obviously neglected by the clenliness of the motor and who knows what other unseen damage these extreme forces caused. Things like shocks, rotors, etc might be ok but I think the only value this one has is that feeling you get when you look at the photo and be glad its not your car!
