| well… the engine was a 1600 that has done 3000km since rebuid which owes me $2400 (didn’t even get to trash it due to being run-in) : ( Mr_bayce – it has 2.5 inch exhaust wif a turbo muffler and a lil hotdog to a 3.5inch dump… and nah im not gunna get another gem as I have just bought a 88 civic and planed to take the gem off the road to do a bit more work to it but now looking at it now, it will be a lot more work : P just gotta wait n see wat the insurance ppl say now....... |

Shit man that is bad luck
I was wiped out two weekends ago in my wagon, by a female learner, no less... Needless to say it will be written off. I only paid $250 for her so if I get market value I have a nice bonus.
You may have to buy the wreck back off the insurance company, I would if your engine is worth something to you. Usually when a vehicle is technically written off the insurance company take the car. Well, that's in my experience.
Hope yr alright too.
Cheers |
