#9838, "Makes me want to cry... 56k :("




          

Ok, so as many of you know, i sold my car to a 16 year old kid from seattle about 5 months ago, and he totalled it three days later. I went with a friend to the south-seattle wrecking yard to look for a fender for his talon, we get to the back of the yard, and i find something that makes my heart skip a beat.... It was my eclipse. It was horrible to see it looking like that, at first, i wasnt sure, but i messed with it, finding a few certain things that i did to it, such as drilling two holes in the back of the glove box for a custom dvd player, a peice of the carpet i tested with carpet dye, they were all there... First, i'd like to show you some pictures of her when i was in charge...

Nah, either that was destroyed in the wreck, or it got picked up quick. The car was pretty well stripped through, mostly anything non broken was taken

I dont think that is your car either. But you would know since you were there and you know your car better than any of us.

Yeah, i sold the kid most of my stock parts with the car, i think he must have swapped the aftermarket stuff out before they came to tow the car away. There were 4 things that verified it was my car. 1, to install a dvd player in the glove box, we drilled two quarter size holes in the back of the glove box. 2, under the passenger seat, there was a spot about 6 inches round, where i tested some black dye. 3, i removed the broken passenger side reverse light, to find the reverse warning beeper thing that big trucks have that i installed just being a dumbass, beecause it was on clearance for $8 at autozone. and four, i also installed an "ooga" horn, which was crushed, still zip tied inside the front bumper lol.
