Question Any ideas? Car is stored in Tulsa

This is my '88 Turbo "S". My kid whapped it up less than an hour after he picked it up from the P/O. Car was well-modded with a ton of maintainence recently done, sport seats basically a nice car all the way around. So....I live in Canada, the corpse is in Tulsa. What do you giuys suggest I do with it?

Can anybody tell me how to attach pictures? Apparently I have launched a few into the virtual ether.

you'll have to host the pictures somewhere else

I'll put them up if you'd like, you can send them to james.regmund at gmail dot com

as for what you should do with it, that could depend...how badly is it damaged? is it salvagable? did you have insurance on it?

Not sure of the damage but in Tulsa you have Rennsport and Tom Charlesworth, Oklahoma City - you have Lindsey Racing and Oklahoma Foreign who may be interested in the car but only pics and price will tell.

You can't offer it up for sale here unless you're a member or it will be deleted.

I'll send you the pictures directly. The car is bent in a number of directions. it took a lamp pole on the pass. side quarter, a guard rail front and center and who knows what got the drivers quarter. Thanks for your help. The pictures are on the way.

I understand. In between work and sending hate mail to the kid that wrecked the car I haven't had much time to come out and play. I haven't decide yet how I'm going to kill him but I'm plotting and that, too, takes time. I'll try to be more prolific.

That's a damn shame!

I feel for ya'. Note to self: Keep boost out of inexperienced hands that don't have a financial stake in the car.

Damn that sucks..

I asked that exact same question with more adverbs etc and probably more volume as well. He hydroplaned on standing water, looped it twice and hit a pole and a guardrail more or less simultaneously. He walked away, at least until I get my hands on him.
