With a car in such condition, even using it as a "parts car" is questionable. You could never know what works and what doesn't and if you used a part from that car and it didn't work you'd be stuck buying a new part anyway. In addition to that, I find it hard to believe that parting out a car in such bad condition could be profitable. I can understand parting out wrecked cars, ones that have minor/moderate front or rear damage but have the majority of the engine/interior intact (and presumably functioning prior to the accident) but this car is a DISASTER

Its like you let a 5 yr old in there for a week to tear it up as much as possible. I can't even believe that some parts rate "good" or "excellent" on their description scale.
