I made a post a while back about my father totalling his black 03. Everything has finally come full circle with the insurance companies involved and I'd rather either sell the car outright to someone who wants it or part it out to those in need than have it go to some random junk yard. In the end I would like to sell the whole thing instead of parting it out. I'm a mechanic so I'm sure I'd make more money in the long run if I did sell it piece by piece but it really is a perfect car to swap all the parts off of. Here's some details on the car:

Black 03
36,935 miles
Police style push bumper(black)
Police style A pillar light(black)
Brand new BFG Gforce tires front and rear(less than 1000 miles on the set)
Keyless entry
AM/FM, tape, CD in dash and 6disk in the trunk

The car got hit real hard in the rear, pushed the back seats forward some but they are fine. The interior is in perfect shape. The back glass was shattered but I put a tarp over it as soon as I got it back(couple days later) to keep rain and bugs out. There is a kink in the roof right above the B pillar on the drivers side. The car MIGHT could be repaired but it'd take alot of work. The motor and drivetrain are perfect, HAHAHA somehow the exhaust isnt even bent! Its perfect for taking some other kind of car and swapping EVERYTHING into it. I'd like to get $5500 for the whole car. Have the title in hand. I'm located in Nashville, TN. Here are a couple pictures, I'll post more if needed. Thanks

Can you just sell me the front stock grill thats the only thing I need and a new one is too much you think you could help me out. Mine has been missing a post for almost a year and I hate looking at it. If you would be willing to help me out you can give me a price of what you would want in a pm. Where are you at if you are close to me or where I drive I may even be willing to come over and unbolt it myself. Also interested in the drivers side view mirror mines got chipped paint from the power wash actually I'd be will to give some cash and my parts so you would still be able to have everything would just have a slightly chipped paint mirror and a grill with one post missing. Just saw you were in Nashville but would still be will to do the trade on those 2 parts. You should still be able to get how much you want and you can get a few extra bucks for a trade.

WOW! that thing got hammered, hope everyone was ok.
Even though it looks like a terrible accident, it makes me feel safe to see that these cars can take that much of a hit in the rear and not have any fire issues and leave the passenger compartment relatively in tact.
Good luck with the sale.

I truly believe that the 6 disc changer is shot.

This is good to buy, the whole car!
I wish I were money ready to get this. you never know when you need a new interior, front end clip, doors, wheels etc.........And the MOTOR alone if you ever blow yours up is in your garage waiting.
DAG! why am I allways broke.

Get both and build one new one!

Wow wish I could buy it, plenty of good parts in it. I bet you could part it out and make more money...

engine
trans
grille
front bumper (if not damaged by push bar)
headlight asseemblies
full marauder interior
wheels/tires

I'm sorry for the loss of the car, hope everyone was OK.

One thing I find odd about these cars is when they get rear-ended it seems that the exhaust always comes out fairly decent - nearly all rear end pics of Marauders I've seen have the pipes sticking straight out still...they must fall off the hangers in a hit and slide underneath the offending vehicle that's ruining a classic.

where is the car located? Does it run at all (enough to load/unload to a trailer?)?

The car is in Nashville, TN. I havent tried to start it, but it rolls fine.

I'm certainly interested in some of those parts.

Man, I guess if I really wanted to convert my interior from Flint to Black this would be the time to do it. :rolleyes: Hhmmm....

I'm interested in the floor mats and I'll take the grille if DarthMarauder backs out.
