My ex-girlfriend put her 1997 Eclipse GST into a guard rail in the rain getting on the Thruway in Henrietta. She was on the onramp and hit some standing water or a really slick spot, then proceeded to do a 360 degree spin. The front of the car hit first then the right rear quarter, then the rear as she spun around.
The insurance company totaled the car obviously. Seeing as she has about $4000 invested in maintence and repairs (Shep Tranny - stock rebuild: new 3-4, new OEM clutch, new control arms, done at Hybrid, new brake calipers, rotors, pads, new tires with only 400 miles on them) over the past 3 years. I told her to buy it back and she could sign over the title to me and I would reimburse her for the buy back amount. Now neither of us has the time or money to put this back together 
Damage to the car is nothing too major, it looks worse than it really is, and no air bags deployed. Only structural damage in the front (core support, inner fender, and headlamp brackets), the rear is cosmetic. It has around 100K miles on it, and has been properly maintained for the time she owned it. It was her daily driver and execpt for a few incidents was very reliable. The body was almost flawless prior to the incident too.
I have all body/mechanical parts to fix (already painted the same color red): including the inner fender, core support, headlight supports, the hood, fenders, side skirts, front and rear bumpers, and a couple buckets of misc parts, including an entire wiring harness off a 1997 GSX. Best part is that the parts are all the same exact color which my body shop guy says there is only one variant for, so some things may not need to be painted, maybe a good buff.
You may want to buy the car for several reasons:
1.) to fix and drive
I have all necessary parts to fix except headlamps, and the upper IC pipe
2.) to have spare parts
-do a 2GB conversion on your 2GA
-have a perfect spare 7 bolt with newer Tbelt and H20 Pump
-have a perfect 16 month old Shepard Racing Rebuilt Tranny (FWD)
-have four GST rims with tires that were purchased 3 weeks prior to the incident
-have grey leather interior, pioneer CD player, Turbo Timer, Boost. Air Fuel Gauges, etc
I have the clear title in hand. It was not branded salvage as she bought it back. When you go to reregister it NYS it will NOT have to go through an inspection station since the car is 10 years old and mileage is exempt it will not have a rebuilt or salvage title.
I will need to get back what I bought it back for, the cost of the parts I have already bought, etc. Then we are just gonna spilt the rest.
I will NOT part anything out YET. You will take everything I have, the entire car and all the parts at once. The car still runs and drives, it was 100% before the accident.
Lets start at $2500

and why am I selling…
