RIP 1991 Capri
« on: October 06, 2011, 05:41:00 PM »
well on my way to work today I was rear ended by some jackass doing about 45 . The back of the car is totally smashed and the frame is bent . Even moved the hood in the front of the car , loved this car, now I'll just have to see wat the adjuster says, maybe I'll get another one soon ! Thanks for everyone's help while I had my car, you all got me through a lot of problems !

That's horrible! Maybe you'll get a better one with the settlement money!! Good luck...

Sorry to hear  :(

Hopefully you can find another good Capri, yours was quite clean and straight.

Chris Hollis would be interested in your engine

Buy it back from the insurance company, You can normally pick them back up for like 200-400 bucks, thats what the junk yards give them for it. Then you have a parts car with parts you know is good to go...

Once I get the estimate from the adjuster I will post parts for sale ! Have lots of parts that I bought that I won't he using now, looking into getting another Capri in the spring ! Will list parts soon. How much does an engine from our cars go for I kno it was rebuilt and has approx 75000 miles on it?
