Requesting assistance: 'totaled' 03 Cobra

tseif · May 24th, 2007, 01:03 PM

Recently, an 03 Cobra that belongs to my family was rolled at relatively low speed. For the sake of insurance, the car is totaled. It has roughly 12000 miles on it, was kept in impeccable condition and ran a 12.24 in the quarter mile. Upgrades include Flowmaster Exhaust, upgraded throttle body, upgraded intake and smaller SC Pulley. All original parts are in storage as well. I would like to borrow on the knowledge of the experts here to try and answer a few questions. They are as follows:

-What parts do you think would be useable? (I assume engine, trans, drivetrain, interior)

-What forums, etc. would be good to get the word out that I am interested in selling parts from this car? (sale would most likely be conducted through EBay for the security of all parties)

- What would be realistic ballpark prices I could expect to get for each of the parts?

-Do you believe there would be any interest in purchasing the entire vehicle in its current condition?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

-What parts do you think would be useable? (I assume engine, trans, drivetrain, interior)

A:it depends on the condition of the parts.
pictures help

-What forums, etc. would be good to get the word out that I am interested in selling parts from this car? (sale would most likely be conducted through EBay for the security of all parties)

A: most forums won't allow a first time poster access to the classified section.

- What would be realistic ballpark prices I could expect to get for each of the parts?

A: It depends on the parts and their condition.
pics

-Do you believe there would be any interest in purchasing the entire vehicle in its current condition?

A: more than likely.

From the sounds of your description, the engine and drivetrain, interior and exhaust would be pretty easy to sell. Google Mustang forum and you can probably come up with a local Mustang club that you may have some luck selling on. Ebay is always an option or a larger national forum such as MM, Stangnet, Corral, SVTPerformance, etc.

Your best bet is probably going to be svtperformance.com

All,
I appreciate the information you've given. It's very helpful! Sorry for the lack of pictures in the original post. The wreck is still pretty recent and good pictures are not yet available. Thanks again for the good info!
