Damn that blows mike..

There's a junkyard on the southside that I think has an SE, not sure of miles..but it's an option. I'll ask my bro which yard it was, we were there this fall..

PhantomLover007 · 02-18-2008, 11:38 AM

Damn man. Sorry to hear about the car.

gaowners32 · 02-18-2008, 12:02 PM

You have full coverage?

Park it in a bad area preferably the ghetto or lower class. And your problem is fixed.

nascarnate326 · 02-18-2008, 12:06 PM

At least parts are common. Good luck.

Ajaxus · 02-18-2008, 12:48 PM

also, out of curiosity, what intersection did it happen at?

silverse · 02-19-2008, 11:51 AM

it happened on portage and wilbert

thinking about parting out the car, came across an oportunity to pay off the car and still have transportation. Still thinking about it will have a definite naswer by this weekend.

Hopefully insurance covers it. But alot of the adjusters are jerks and don't like to help out

DrFabulous · 02-19-2008, 07:02 PM

Too bad it didn't burn to the ground, amirite?

silverse · 02-20-2008, 07:26 PM

I have full coverage, if you were to look at the car you wouldnt know it until you popped the hood and looked at the tranny and smelled the terrible smell of melted rubber and burned tranny fluid.

Aw, I'm sorry to hear it man.
I just got some bad news myself.
After listening to my fathers wonderful advice of how engine coolant doesn't need to be flushed.

Then taking it to a shop and finding out they said my engine coolant is disgusting, and I have a LIM Leak ^_^
Yay!
<3 Parents.

No idea if it's worth it to repair it, or part it out yet.

Bryan · 02-23-2008, 09:14 PM

Why would it not be worth the repair? Is the leak extreemely bad?
