Sorry for your loss
 So what happened? Was it your fault? Are you going to look into getting another Celica? If you are I would say keep your stuff.

It might be fixable, but it also might cost more to fix than just replace. If it were me, I'd part it out and replace it. Unfortunately the parts are worth more than the whole.

i would say that's it's totalled and not worth fixin. i would find another and just move your parts over then part out the rest to cover some of your loss. you're not hurt at all are ya? all in all it's just a car. it coulda been a lot worse.
i hope it all works out for ya. --------------------  Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

man, that sucks. Sorry to say it, but doesn't sound like she can be fixed too easily. Might be better to look into anoother one. I agree with 95CelicaST, if you plan on getting another, you should keep the aftermarket parts and use them on the next car. Hope you can get everything figured out.

You're looking at new:
fender hood front bumper core support headlights windshield steering wheel In all reality it wouldn't cost as much as what you would need to fork out for a 300ZX. I would say start looking for body parts. Check local yards. If you can't find some stuff I have access to a guy parting a 95 baltic blue celica. He's got new steering wheel, fenders, hood, bumper cover, bumper support, core support and windshield... basically everything but the headlights. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
