Just for the entertainment value, this sold for $450 today:

The funny thing is with a clean title you could drive that thing around all mangled up.

Not sure how much a 200k mile drivetrain is worth, but I guess if you needed an engine would probably wouldn't blink at an eye at a used running engine for $450.

Fun stuff.

More than a little elbow grease, there is ALOT of labor in replacing a roof.

Not alot of cost for the part, but alot of labor.

It certainly isn't easy to roll over a car with that low a profile. They had to really try......

That probably scrap value.

Held up good for a roll over. My uncle has pictures of a nearly new Trailblazer that didn't do nearly as well, cheap POS.

If the engine runs and has good compression its worth $1,500.
