Captain Crunch, that is......my project just took a really huge dump down the toilet saturday afternoon. Was almost ready to paint (the body fill on the door was just test patches to try different hardner quantities). I will most likely buy it back from insurance and part it out.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your accident. Hope everyone was okay.
I would be interested in some of those parts, when you get it back.

Elderly lady blew through a yield sign and smoked me right in the door. Had just enough time to yell out that particular "F" word then BANG.

She was fine, and insured of course, minimal damage to her suv. Adjuster sees it in 2 more days. Gotta go through the hassle of finding all of my receipts though. I know they are gonna try to stick me when it comes the value.

Sorry for your loss, I'm feeling your pain, believe me.

Keep the speedo for your next car. Don't you dare get anything else but another 3rd gen!

I'll be finding out Monday, what insurance is going to give me for it, and they will set a buy-back price based on salvage value. So most likely I will be buying it back. I'm not in the mood for another third gen right now, so I will definately be parting it out. I'll have a look at the wheels when I get it, and snap some high-res pics of them for you.

Sorry for your loss. I hate it whren its someone else's fault and your vehicle gets the worst of it, and they only get a scratch or a pushed in bumper.
