If the engine's shot it doesn't mean she's garbage!! Hopefully its JUST the engine that's wrecked. Then swap it out, and fix some panels. Panels are cheap.
+3, I'm in for some wheel-humping. A white wagon is damn nice, we just need to get some better suspension on it and no more sliding!
Omg you guys are getting my hopes high and I haven't even gotten the news yet. If I get to fix it I'll be drivin like a granny and then everyone will hate me. Most def on some kick ass suspension. I'll just need it to run for now, but this thread has me dreaming up plans that will take awhile, like the suspension, sway bars, Sti brakes, slotted rotors, better tires, hell maybe even a roll cage.
lmao! I think that the damage I saw that day didn't look like enough to total her...but I'm sure that really depends on the motor's health. Matt has an engine in his living room doesn't he? :biggrin: I would request to buy it back from them. Tell them your brother in law is a mechanic.
lol, I know riiight? When I was inside the car I was expecting it to look like ****. Then when I actually saw it after getting it towed out I even thought, man if it nothing happened to the engine, I could throw a spare on it and drive it off, but the damned windshield too.. bleh, I'm gonna go look at pics of when she was pretty and I didn't hurt her. He doesn't have an engine in the living room, maybe his pants..lol Brother in-law, don't got one unless one of my brothers is gay. I wish I had a sis, I got three brothers and they are all into domestic cars. Weird huh? I guess that's pretty gay. O.O;
O.k, sister in law is a mechanic then. haha, Just need to get the car back! I think that the motor will run. May need to put some fluids back in it though before you start it up. lol.
That's for sure, and clean up all the dirt I angrily threw at it. Ooo, I can go back and put that damn washer I forgot on the tranny. I'm sure the car is so pissed at me, I gotta make up it to her and fix it,.
if you get it back. toss a new oil pan on it, and filter. add fluids and see if it runs. if it sounds good you can roll with it (upgrade later?), or if it sounds like death..... well then it needs some work. I highly doubt that dirt in the engine bay hurt anything.
This is really sad to hear. Hope you get her up and running again. I know how I'd feel if it was my car. However on a lighter note, I gotta agree... GF wagon swap + RS front end conversion ftw :biggrin: Something like this is what I'd rock for a wagon. Kotir's ride on RS25:
truf, i want my wagon to be that hot... someday. i enjoy my stealth for now tho...and i think i am making Justin lower my car. lol
that wagon is sexy, but it just happens to be that I've grown attached to mine, it's pretty much my lover. I've always been a very patient person, but damn the insurance co. is taking a long ass time, it's like they trying to drop a duce but they are constipated or something. btw I'm hella drunk and I still type good. Boo-YA!
I just realized that, that 1 in the morning post kindadidn'treallymakeanysense. As for Fobia spelling better, he isn't the only one learning, he taught me how to make an omelet today. lol
LOL,...reminds of last night driving home with you talking about our spelling and grammar on forums..and yes bee you were drunk...I have the photos to prove....incriminating evidence ftw!
Yeah, I guess they called last week and my step dad is a little slow in the head he didn't pick up or check his voice mail, turns out they needed the key for the rims, so they can check that stuff out. I just sent it out Saturday so hopefully they get it today or tomorrow. I'm guessing its probably not totaled but we'll see. I also talked to the rents about signing the title over and letting me pay for my own insurance. They said it's gonna cost a bitch but I rather do all that than have to ever go through this again in the future. They don't seem too happy about it, but I gotta start sometime and I think it's the best for both them and I.
