[Egon Spengler]

Stupid question... What would people be able to salvage off this?!?!?

[Krytin]

And just what would anyone buy THAT for?!!!
Holy Cow that thing is toast!

Beat me to it!

[Bluerauder]

"Color: Burn." :( Not an original color. ;)

"Repair Cost: $0" :rolleyes: Yeah, right.

[Cheeseheadbob]

Are you kidding? That thar is a Grade A, #1, highly prized and sought after West Virginia lawn ornament...:D
And just what would anyone buy THAT for?!!!

[Joe Walsh]

JEEZ!

I'm suprised no one has said:

"That'll buff right out!"

BTW: It looks like the horns are in great condition!

[Blk Mamba]

Wait a minute... nope not mine, bad, it's an '03. That's hard to look at.

[Egon Spengler]

Dibs on floor mats??? awwwww....

[Joe Walsh]

Instead of a 'RatRod', that smoldering hulk could be the basis of a new automotive trend;.....the 'RoastRod'.

BTW: I wonder if the ashtrays are clean?

Whole car is an ashtray!

Brings a whole new meaning to 'burning rubber'. No, CBT, not the kind of burning rubber you do in the Philippines.

[NHTHAWK]

That's just sickening! Well one more down makes ours one car rarer!

BTW I saw my first Silver Marauder on the Maine Turnpike Saturday evening just before the tolls in York. Any one here?

[tbone]

I wonder if it was hard to light?:confused:
:flamer:

[swordfish]

I wonder if it was hard to light?:confused:
:flamer:
I was thinking the same thing!!!

[Dragcity]

Body panels are now heat tempered. Or the temper has been removed.......

Too bad it's out of warranty

[Black Dynamite]

That's just painful to look at... I'm gonna go hug mine right now.:(

Does RoyLPita have that VIN on the dead list yet?

[dakslim]

I can't believe they are actually expecting to sell that hunk of molten metal!

[Joe Walsh]

It had to have been a DTR:

Destroyed
Torched
Rust

BTW: I hadn't even noticed the 'spoke-nubs-rim' on that poor Marauder until 'illwood' posted the photo!

[BAD MERC]

The only thing on that car usable is the shadow.

[RoyLPita]

I'll add this one in.

[ImpalaSlayer]

damn that was a hot fire! holy crap!

[Blackened300a]

damn that was a hot fire! holy crap!

Thats a insurance job. No attempt was made to put it out. That car don't have a single piece of plastic left in it.

[TFB]

Bad part is it ain't the only one... Looks like this was maybe inside when it burned, something has fallen on it for sure...

Wow I wonder what colored it started as...? I hope Black...

That looks like the automatic fuel door which makes it a 300A and most likely Black.

http://images.copart.com/website/data/pix/20100809/18351220_3X.JPG

This one also looks like it has the automatic fuel door so once again, 300A and most likely black.

[FormulaMarauder]

By law, copart (agent of the NICB (national insurance crime bureau) )has to list every vehicle remanded to the yard by insurance companies. They have to post EVERYTHING if it's a complete car.

They list the color as http://www.vehbidz.com/themes/vehbidz/img/a_icon_faq.pngColor: BROWN :flamer:

[TFB]

The VIN on the one I listed is 2MEHM75VX3X610416 (http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-3975488-10418220?vin=2MEHM75VX3X610416 ), which is a early build(1146 units ahead of mine), has to have been black...

so the first thing i saw was you sig pic and thought you were bawzair. then saw the name and said, huh. thought he had his name changed. then i read this sentence and thought, holy **** bazzelbear went to school. it wasnt untill i saw your location that i realized your the new owner. lmao

[TFB]

LOL

Since it's well known here on MM.net, I used bawzair's pict so it would be easily recognizable, was going to have a friend shoot some pict when we were at the drag strip but forgot my camera...

I probably don't spell much better than he does, but I'm friends with Fire Fox's spell checker...

Now that is sad, I had one of those with a 429, wasn't too hard to get it waay sideways. Mine was still straight when I sold it though.

[tbone]

Seems like a lot of these cars burn! (?)

[CBT]

My first car when I was 15 was almost a green Montego that looked damn near identical to that Cyclone, body and grill wise. Guy blew up the motor the day before we were supposed to hand him the cash. It sat, with the hood leaning against it and minus the motor, in a kudzu pile for the next 15 years about half a mile from my house. He was always going to fix it, yeah right.

[Go2GuyFL]

A little FUKKEN WAX will make them good as new!

Sure about that???

Haven't actually seen a SC Marauder hangin' around have you? Mebby I'm just stringing you along...

[WhatsUpDOHC]

That ain't right.

[Bigdogjim]

Oh no, it's back, lol!

I didn't think it was possible, but you made me even sadder than the Marauder picture.:(

[dmjarosz]

Driver side camshaft timing gears seem intact.

Haha the crossover tube looks like it could be salvaged for an Eaton swap...

[Vostok]

This makes me sad :(

[vtwoodsman]

Looks like an arson job. Possible stolen and burned.

[Zim Hosein]

complete car.

Complete? :eek:
