Yeah! Fix it up and keep it going! That would be awesome.

I've been trying to find a broken (not wrecked because I'm not good at body work) Yaris for a while now and haven't had any luck... must go to show how tough these little cars really are.

Whenever someone asks me if they should buy a car, I tell them to try to find a blown up one on Craigslist. I thought about a Honda Fit, HHR, Matrix, cars like that before. I found a bunch of hurt ones and decided to stick with Yars.

I almost got ahold of one with a blown headgasket, but slept through the auction. That was the only one I've ever came across with engine troubles.

Car is officially totaled, with everything, getting around $4200 from insurance, and getting to keep the car for $75. If anyone needs any parts, lmk. Brakes and wheels will be transferred to the new red car.

I like your shift knob on the red one. Does it come in blue?

Today's activities;

Sold my silver parts car for $800, dropping off tomorrow.

Moving stuff over



Ready for delivery in the morning



Also did the trunk mods I saw on here to house a full size spare





All cleaned up and put back together

Dropped red off at the tint shop tonight as well, excited to get that car wrapped up.

Nah, he's pulling the motor out for his car. Sad that it won't make a come back, but it's for the best.
