Totaled 03 Terminator

[Yellow_SVT01]

A friend of mine knows someone that had their garage cave in on there car and the insurance company is calling it totaled. I have a 01 Cobra and I was wondering if there is anything I should buy from this guy that would be better on my Cobra, ex heads, intake, etc. What do you guys think? Thanks

I do not have that kind of cash, I was just looking to buy a few things here and there.

rims? maybe the back bumper so it says cobra, or did that add that on '01? cuz i remember mikeys '99 cobra said mustang on the bumper...is just the roof caved in or is the whole body trashed?

Side mirrors, side skirts, side scoops, seats....

what is damaged?

Hell did the seats live through it? What color is the car? This guy should have a pick and pull yard sale. Depending on how much the insurance wants for him to buy it back he could do well.

r they going to let him buy the car back? when my 03 was totaled I could not buy it back. there is some kind of new law. (I got the papers explaining it all when the car got wrecked) I had the same idea buy it back then part it out..

once its past a cert year u can buy them back forgot the year. at least thats what I was told and thats what the paper said..

Ask him what insurance he has. I will most likely pick it up at the auto auction. Do you have any pics? I will bet thats going to copart or QCSA auto auction if hes from around here cause those companies deal with insurance total losses. Will it be a salvage title now? or still clean?

[imbuggin]

pm me if he is selling the short block or t56

it was 10 years from model year for statefarm (used to work at a body shop)

 

[sonicblue2003]

I had allstate and that sounds about right....

 

[sonicblue2003]

does any1 know anyway to track a car that was sold at copart? do they stay close or r they shipped all over.. would love to find my old cobra

 

[01SVT19]

yea give me the # and I will tell you where it was sold. You can also call them of you have a buyer account and ask them to search it for you.

 

[sonicblue2003]

what # do u need? The vin?

 

[01SVT19]

what # do u need? The vin?

Yes the VIN # And I will look it up for you. How long ago did you total it?

 

[sonicblue2003]

i will post the vin when I get home it was about 1.5 years ago. Is that to long ago?

 

[01SVT19]

no shouldnt be. Ive checked cars since 4 years ago. You also may see some clean title cars on there also but no indication on carfax which shows how much BS carfax is.

I do not know how much damage is done because he has not been able to get in there yet. The guy was talking about just selling some parts so the insurance company would not know. I was thinking more motor wise, is there anything better on that motor than on mine? Stronger heands, intake, etc.

 

[sonicblue2003]

vin# is 1FAFD48YX3F396680 thanks for any info on it

I think the whole block itself is stronger but, I might be mistaken. What year do you have an 01? Some 01 Had teskid blocks in them from what I heard some one will chime in and correct me.
