Found this clunker today down the street from the dealership.. I dont know if the engine runs, but it turns over with a screw driver. Interior is perfect, exterior is staright and paint looks good, just hella dirty and the engine is all there and nice to. Its tempting to just trialer it away, totally accessable too. Oh well, I wouldnt really do it but it did come across my mind. All I could with it is part it or just turn it into a track car. Kinda pisses me off because its been taken well car of and now its rotting.

You should at least take some interior pieces like the entire dash, center console, the rear 1/4 panels that no one reproduces, the door panels and strip that interior lol, they don't give a shit, it's going to get crushed anyway.
Tail lenses too [ September 06, 2009, 09:25 PM: Message edited by: 90FoX ]

Yeah Cash for clunker. I think it used to be owned by a chp officer because there was a sticker on it. The window said 71K miles.

Haha if you look the lense is almost off, but hella cars were driving by and was scared. Its not my style to steal, but I guess its really not stealing when its left for dead.

That's definitely not stealing. The govt should be paying them their 5k. It's just going to get ripped to shit in a crusher
Even better go talk to the dealer and tell em you have a stang and that since the car is going to get crushed can you grab some int pieces...If they say no then they are some douche bags [ September 06, 2009, 09:34 PM: Message edited by: 90FoX ]

Yeah I guess not. I just don't like to get in trouble for stupid shit. At least whoever traded it in is driving a hybrid, leaving me more fuel to waste.

Its not a bucket, it was nicer than mine when I got it. It just needs a bath, and a coat of wax. [ September 07, 2009, 12:12 AM: Message edited by: MikeD. ]

I know they destroy the engines, but do they crush them once they are done?

If its a C.A.R.S cars, the dealer can't do anything with it as far as selling it or parts off it. Most likly it will end up at Pick-N-Pull. When they recieve it, they can set it in the yard, motor will be spray painted PINK and you can pull and buy parts off it. You can not buy the whole engine assembly, the block, the crank, the connecting rods, the pistons, the bearings, the cams or the heads. All other parts are ok. After that, the reciving yard has to crush with in 6 months.

I hate thieves, but given the circumstances, I would not at all have any qualms about you boosting that car, lol.
