Had an accident.
I had an accident on 3-17-06. Guess the Luck'o'the Irish was not with me!
Anyway now I'm selling it as a parts car. First $500 takes it. Car is in Wall. NJ. Engine runs fine, radiator is punctured. It was a great car until the 17th of March. Joe.

Huh, that's awfully close to me. Tempting. Though, why not just fix it up and keep driving her? New headlight + radiator can't cost too much. I'd hate to see that thing torn apart as a parts car.
How's the interior?

By the look of it, I would say the core support was smashed.

Compared to what happened to our minivan when it was nearly-new, the repairs that car needs are minor. The rest of the car looks so nice!

The title is clean. I did not have collision insurance on it only liability.
Body shop wants alot to fix it. I don't have the time or tools to do the repair myself.

If only green beer was the answer. Just a basic lapse in driving skills.

And the lady in front of me (in an SUV that I could not see around) jammed on her brakes. I wasn't quick enough on the brake pedal. My loss. Careless driving ticket and all.

Is the engine, transmission and drive train still OK as far as you know? Can the car move under its own power?
And, how do you feel about $400 cash? Ken300D
