fix it

 

I have a steering column with the ignition and a key for it and the wiper/blinker switches. I'll get a picture for you. I don't know how much it's worth, but I'd try to give it to you cheap. Like 30 bucks plus whatever shipping is?

 

I would price it all out and see how much its going to cost you to fix it first, mabey it will better to fix it then to spend the money and get somthing new.

 

well do you have insurance on the car to cover the theft? if not repair and sell it... if they covered the cost id say just rebuild her.... and keep rocken it... with your first upgrade being a alarm system...

at least ya got it back!!!!!!!! in decent condition! they could have torched the car... so think of at least in the positive... id check the car out and HOPE they didnt neutral drop the car if automatic or burn the clutch up if manual... its always a risk BUT ya wanna HOPE they just drove it to the guting location and to the ditching area to stay low profile...

but if they insurance is covering the cost.... its just your choice..... but if they dont cover it id just repair the most of it so its drivable and such that way yyou can sell the car and buy your new toy...

 

thats ****ty. I hope you have some sort of insurance coverage... my insurance covers me no matter what happends. I say fix it no matter what. You have already put in sweat and tears so put more into it. Damn thieves. It's nice to know that people like that will rot in hell.

 

sadly, i only had liablilty, when i first bought this car i paid $1200, i didnt think id worry aobut theft, dont matter they would have only covered me for the car value and not what i invested in the car...... still a few extra buks would have been nice but wutever, ill be picking it up tommrow, see if she starts uop and see if she runs ok.... and thanks danomatic for helping me out with that..... ill keep u updated

 

when you think the car isnt gonna be stolen is when the car will be jacked. its when you know its gonna be stolen that nobody touches it i hope

 

buy a different car and start fresh

 

i would get the prices for everything you need, and compare to what another car is gonna cost. from all the stuff you mentioned soundslikeit might cost about the same to buy a new one and fix up your other one
