I may (meaning, I'm not sure yet) have to sell my rex. I've had a metric buttload of financial probs over the past four months that have tapped me out, and I'm considering parting with the car. If this comes to past, how much would it be worth?
The car was in a fender bender. We have stripped off the right fender, bumper, bumper reinforcement, headlight assemblies, right corner light, mud faps, radiator, AC Condenser, etc. The hood was also damaged and will have to be replaced. The engine has 125K on it. It is a 5spd car. I don't believe it had any factory options. It is missing the stereo (ripped out). We did start the engine before we bought it, and it sounded pretty dang smooth. The interior is in pretty good shape. The driver side seat is torn on the bolsters. The panels have average wear. The carpet is showing sign of some wear. The hinges on the security compartment are history. The driver side CV boot is torn. The Strut bar (leading from the lower control arm to the cross member) is bent slightly, but will have to be replaced. The radiator support frame will have to be replaced, and the right front inner fender frame is going to have to be pulled out (body shop work). The rest of the car is in pretty darn good shape. I ran a Carfax deal on it, and learned it was a North Central Texas car all of it's life (so no rust). Definitely a project car. It will have to be trailered out. I do not have title, but I do have a bill of sale. Since TX requires you to put insurance on a car to get the title transferred, we were going to wait until we got all the work done to get the title transferred. I'd hoped to have the car finished by now, but I got ill and missed a lot of work, and not having insurance, you can guess the rest of the story. If I have to end up selling the car, what would you suggest I start my asking price? I'm in TX, just north of Dallas/Ft Worth if that might give you an idea of the market. Si's in decent shape start around $3K in this area, so I have no idea what to ask for a HF with a bashed in nose. As I said, I may have to keep the thing, but if I don't...any suggestions would be appreciated. Derek Wakefield [EMAIL PROTECTED]
