Default Went for diagnosis...

Well, I went to the yard for pictures and so me and my dad could get a better look at it. Looks as if the whole front end is bent towards the drivers side and all. Engine is pushed over towards the driver's side as well. Pretty much everything before the doors is destroyed. Now honestly, do you think a car doing no more than 35mph could do this much damage?

From what I've heard they said they will probably make it unsalvagable...

I'll definitely stick around but I just can't afford to drive a stang right now especially if I blamed for this accident.

As long as they had no insurance, it is NOT your fault.

dude that sucks, really sorry to see that, it makes me really sad to see a stang all beat up like that...on a lighter note, if you do end up parting out your car that hood scoop looks really good

I'm actually thinking of getting a 96-98 Stang and swapping all the parts to that one. But then again, I wouldn't be able to afford the payments and gas at the sametime considering I'm having to pull out an even bigger loan this time.

There are no decent ones in this area. I would love to have one but I just can't find any that I would want...

How long have you been looking? IMO it'd be worth the wait to find a really nice one.

There are a couple but they are nearly mint condition with new engines and superchargers and that's not something I would want to drive everyday to work and school.

Keep looking, and whenever you start to lose hope, just come back to this thread and look at this picture.
