That's a damn shame... Where abouts do you live? If you like I might be able to help you out with some parts if there is even the slightest chance you may want to repair it. Send me a PM and I can maybe organise some parts at trade price for you if you're interested.

It will be going to some action house in approx 1 1/2 weeks, can find out which one if anyone is interested.
Don't know how much she'll go for but the engine is good interior is good, just parts are too expensive for suncorp.
Airbags $2500
Grille surround $450
Grille $850 etc etc
Front end damage only.
Have a set of Bendix DB1353HD if anyone with aN FBT or ELGT, needs them unused in box (for cobra callipers).
Cheers, now i gotta buy another car...

Ah I dont think so, Ive straightened plenty of rails and replaced a few aswell, looking at the pics it doesnt look that bad at all. It is deemed a writeoff when the repair bill exceeds 2/3rds of the value its insured for.

I would expect around 2500 to 3000 , which makes it repairable on cost alone ( looks not to bad) but is it ?

It seems such a waste, the whole car except for the fromt looks in perfect condition.

Do you have a choice wether the insurance company fixes it or gives you your money, or do they decide?

Just out of interest, is that colour polynesian green?

And also, could you tell me what wreckers its going to?
