You should try to make friends with a IAA broker, although It may work different in your state. I've got a buddy fixing cars like crazy, so if I ever catch a good one I stand a solid chance of snagging it up.

Those seem plentiful, they actually had full coverage when they got wrecked. The NA's are harder to come by, which is what I'd really want.

Haha

Well, I'd start at auto body shops, maybe check out some PDR guys and ask if they know anyone working their own cars.

Worst case, you can just hire one though it may cost more and I think you might need deposits and other stuff, so the broker knows your not a joker.

Brokers and Market Makers - Copart

Second one shows some costs, or at least what some brokers charge.

Yeah, if you want something from an IAAI auction we can get it for you. My buddy would charge $100 for one-time purchase, plus auction fees.

That one on Copart is an auto which means open diff...

This one is a BP4W with the 6-speed and 3.9 rear, and it's got a stupidcharger.

Wow iaai has way more cars than copart. Ed, lets talk in a couple months when I have a steady paycheck.

Wait super charger, BP4W and 6 speed? How much do you think it will go for?

That 2000 SE is a gold mine.

NOBODY ELSE BUY IT I WANT IT.

For real though Ed, I looked closer, stock shiny wheels are worth like 10,000 on m.net right, and another couple million for the super charger.

No idea how much it'll go for. I'd guess anywhere between 3-5k plus fees.

Steering wheel an easy $200-$300. Floor mats $100+. Shift **** and ebrake handle another $100-$200 combined depending on condition. Carpets will command a premium, seats could be sold for much dollars. Radio/shifter bezels $100 or so. Door sills $100 or so.

Also looks to have a silly dual exhaust that someone on M.net would be super excited to own.


I'd pay $4k for that all day.

You cheap bastard. I paid $2300 PLUS FEES

dammit hit enter

I paid $2300 plus fees for that one 10AE that had been totaled before (fees were just under $600, plus towing was $80). who knows, maybe this one will go that cheap, but I doubt it. Either way I'm watching it and I'll buy it if I have the money at the time, which is unlikely.

I only added up ~1350 for the parts you mentioned. Throw in 700 for the super charger, and I'm still at 2k there for the engine and trans and rear end.

Sell wheels, brakes, gauge cluster, ecu, etc etc etc. You could easily get over $2000 back out of this car, and you can't get a BP4W, 6spd, and 3.9 Torsen for $2k.

That's how i looked at buying my car. Even if it was a total piece of **** that i didn't want to deal with, i still got a slammin' deal for a 4w/6spd/3.9 Torsen package.
