It was going to to cost me for the tow. Like this I can still take it but in a truck. I got other stuff to recycle so might as well take everything.

Yup sucks but you got to vet your money some how. What did it for me was all the low ballers. Rather cut it up then give it to them.

He had wiring issues N well u see what happens with this guy.
 
Posted by Pure Stang (Member # 7251) on :
 
The wiring caught on fire. And had another wiring issue I couldn't figure out. Got really tired of spending money to diagnose it and people couldn't find the problem. I would fix it then it would do the same problem. I tried selling it for 8k complete all I got was 4-5k offers so I parted it.... Spent well over 15k fixing it up to only sit in my drive way. It sucked parting it but the money is going to my 68 which will be way better and faster that this car. Also no smog [patriot]

Yes Neight I was a little but of a hot head lol. Parted it on a impulse which I wish I never would have done. Instead of cooling off and trying again another day I parted it that vary same day it broke down.

I had to cut up my old 86 GT like this.
😭

Man I went with a standalone engine harness to avoid this !!!
 
Posted by copcar (Member # 10113) on :
 
...had to cut it up? I just don't get it. it was very nice. I hope you got what you needed for the parts. How much time did that take? seems like it would take forever to do it right. save up for a tow?...time is money... the paint alone... shit, I'm speechless... RIP.

pickapart.com will come tow away anything AND pay you $25 for the shell as long as you have the title...

I'm sure there are similar junkyards near you.

I tried no one wanted it. Especially because it had a semi built rear end no one wanted to buy it with the rear end. I didn't have a spare one the people that wanted it didn't have a spare rear end. Trust me guys I tried everything! I even healed it for a total of a month because supposably someone was gonna pick it up... I had no other choice.

There was plenty of time for people to buy it. People where talking mad shit because I wanted 8 k for it. Got fucked up phone calls. So I parted it. I got more than my asking price and kept my rims....

I was not going to spend anymore money. Car was salvaged no one wanted it.

This could be the saddest story I have ever read on cafords since the web-site went public. A wiring issue leading to complete self destruction.

I'm not a psycologist, but it would probably be best for you to leave the car hobby forever and take on something less aggrevating like stamp collecting or bird photography.

Best of luck to you.

You are right, I don't have visibility of what you were going through and can certainly understand that there are some car related problems that can be so frustrating that it makes people want to throw in the towel.

No shit, a muthafuckin wiring problem? How hard is it to figure out what year the car is, get the correct wiring harness, run the wires, and trouble shoot any shorts? Probably a lot easier than cutting up the car in this manner. Seriously, get into camaros or kia rio's or something else.

If you where serious I would have gotten a pm. And to answer your question no vin and title will not be sold. It's been reported to DMV.

Posted by Pure Stang (Member # 7251) on :
 
I know you are man no worries. The shell was clean bad part was the salvaged title that what made it difficult to sell. I wanted to get 15 with the rearend but no bites. Oh well time to move on to bigger and better things like my 68 [patriot]
