    Default Whats it worth? (pulling apart a manual VR wagon, low kms)

    Hey guys,

    Hopefully this is the correct section (sorry mods if its not), but i need to pull apart/sell off my VR wagon.

    Basically i had a front end crash which screwed the bumper/bonnet and metal head light surround. It pushed the back into the car (didnt touch the engine) so now i need to get rid of it.

    basically i was considering selling off the following parts...

    VR V6 Buick engine with 133,000kms (Serviced every 5000kms for the last 3 years)
    New alternator
    New(ish) water pump/power steering pump
    New injectors
    T5 Manual gearbox with new (~5,000kms old) heavy duty clutch. (reverse gear syncro input thingy is stuffed, but will fix when removed from car. Pretty straight forward job)
    Full wiring loom and ECU
    Drive shaft
    Manual pedal box etc etc (Basically the entire running gear)

    Ultra low suspension (shorten shocks, springs, adj panhard rod, bout 5,000kms old)

    Full 2.5" Exhaust system (Pacemaker extractors, bout 5,000kms old, looks brand new)

    Electric windows, Black Widow alarm, Doors, Panels, Interior, Diff and everything else that makes up the car.

    What do you reckon is a fair price for each of the parts? Is it worth taking to a wreckers? (basically i just want to get rid of it. Ive spent around $8k on the car before crashing it, so id like to get back at least $1k). I might post some pics.... as it is fixable (The structural beams are fine, as is the engine etc) so someone might be able to fix it.

    Here is a thread to it from a while back...

    ya needed the cash ASAP, so ya posted it on here, got stuff all for the car, when ya couldve made $1000 for the 5spd conversion, 300 on the motor, and maybe 400 on the whole suspension setup?
    why post shit like this for 5 days, then sell to wreckers cause ya was strapped for cash???

    i have 2 sets of mags i NEED to sell ASAP to pay major bills, but i aint sellin them for a nickle like you did..
    what a waste of time and effort in posting, and not answerin anyones PM's, or calls!!!

    i wouldve bought stuff from ya, but nope, i aint buyin nothion off ya if ya wanna sell things that quick again...
