If that's "salvageable" I'd hate to see their definition of toast!

I think the dash could be saved with "Back to Black"

Based on their location and the number of 914's in the background, it looks to be from autoatlanta. With the reputation that they have on this board, I wouldn't think that their feedback score would be that high.

I'm guessing that people are bidding on the rear valence/hatch...?

I bought one in better shape that also had a engine fire for 400.00 last year. 800.00 would be the tops on that car.

It might be Auto Atlanta; it might also be German Auto Dismantlers ("formerly P.A.P.!" and for good reason. . . )

I'd expect such stupidity / flagrant lack of ethics from them.

I would pay more than $500 for that car if its local. The intercooler, trans, rear valence, longblock, wheels, and suspension is worth more than that....

I guess you could salvage the hatch, rear wheels, spare tire, rear bumper, valance, tailights, and rear brakes. I imagine that everything up front is toast (no pun intended).

I don't think that's a stock spare tire - sure doesn't look like my spare!

Make it into a track car? Right! They should add: "Make it look like a CRASHED track car without risking injury!"

That's just wrong.
