Nope, i have liability so insurance doesn't care. its cool thoughim buying a 91 240 tomorrow and swapping motor and trans.



Interior is doo-doo brown so swapping to black also

The red one will most likely be parted out so keep a lookout if you need parts

he's right, your homeowner's should cover it. do you not have a bumper support?

Yeah im gonna look into the homeowners, but the damage seems like more then the cars worth, and i dont want them to take it because i need the motor.

No it doesnt have a front support, i literally bought the red 240 last weekend, the fenders werent aligned, the pop-ups were held in with one screw at the top, pretty big p.o.s but i love the rear wheel drive. so wasted 1000$ but got a motor and trans with 90k for the black 240.

From what i saw theres no dents on the new one, i did a quick walk around to check the body cause the motors blown and didnt care about the interior.

I bought the Red one off of craigslist though.

For it to have been parked and then just slid, it looks like too much damage. I could see if there was some momentum behind it but from being in a parked position.. anyways at least you have a new 240 to swap parts over to.

Aw man, that sucks. At least the 91 looks really clean. And now you have a parts car... and a newer bumper, fenders, etc.

Yeah you can get the hatch and whoever else asked for the mirror, shoot me a pm or email at [email protected] with your zip, or if your picking up just what you wanted, i picked up the Black 91 today and i am swapping this weekend so the brown interior will be pulled by then as well, shoot me an email.

Thats exactly what i thought when i saw it, i was like, "ah why did you just commit suicide when i was inside!" i didn't even notice the footprints till now, and it rolled over a big 4x4 which is surprising. possible foul play? my dad hated it lol

Red 240 will be on classifieds this weekend, keep a look out
