Sell or Rebuild?

I have a 4 door 95 GSR that was stolen. When I got it back 8 hours later it was missing the engine, transmission, seats, gauge cluster, air bags, stereo (1k worth), alarm, fuel pump, wheals, tires, and various other items. They were very neat at taking things and did not cut or break anything other than to rear end the trunk to push it off the road. My question is...

Should I sell it the way it is as a "Rally Car" (just add engine and racing seats? Or should I try to buy a wreaked Integra and rebuild my car?

Does anyone in the northwest want to buy my car?
Does anyone have a wreaked car they would like to sell to me for parts?

Any ideas on resources on getting wrecked cars?

Thanks your help is apresheated!

Go On Line And Line And Look Up All Those Parts And Add The Cost... Then Think About How Much The Car Is Worth...then Get Full Coverage Insurance

Hindsight is always better than foresight. True it would have been nice to have full coverage. But after all the years that I've had the car paid off it has paid for itself not to have full coverage. I'm just trying to figure out what to do with the car now.

If you take your statement and apply it to a 500 dollar Geo Metro the cost difference for value of car vs. the value of parts if you priced them all separately is now even larger.

But that is not what I'm trying to do. I would like to find an Acura that someone has wrecked and buy it from them to install their parts onto my car. Or the opposite, sell my car to them.

would you use it as a daily driver or a track car.

I think i would go ahead and sell it. and buy something 2 door. lighter weight, and stiffer. especially if looking for a track car.

I would like to make the Integra stock again and then sell it.

Or sell it to someone that needs a body for their parts. They could make the car into a race car (four door integras are not much heaver than the two door) or if they would like to rebuild my car as a daily driver.

I just made this thread to see if there is interest in my car for this. Or if people have wrecked cars they would sell to me.

Does anyone in the NW have a wrecked Integra they'd like to sell?

Does anyone want a good Integra body they would like to put there wrecked car parts into?

I find it hard to beleive there is no intrest in a car like this or that there is no wrecked Integras lying around.

Let me know what you guys have.

damn you got fucked... just sell it as is and get rid of it. i know it has to be a major pain in the ass having a car with nothing inside or under the hood sitting in the driveway. i doubt anyone will make a crazy race car out of a 4-door integra. if it was me...i would just sell it.
