I never should have sold her. R.I.P.
Sad to say whilst I've only been an FTO owner in spirit now for a couple of years, my girl has moved on to the FTO afterlife.

That would be horrible
I don't want to ever sell mine, that's one of the reasons....

Re: I never should have sold her. R.I.P.
The guy that has this car now got it from an auction... It was written off from an accident with two trees
I pretty much got everything cool off the car... I wouldn't mind getting the rims though and the strut brace

Ah, thanks Stef. Maybe he should have put a bull bar on it rather than under car neonsKustom wrote:He hit two trees apparently Gavin. I found it on here actually.
The rims will cost more to repair than they were worth brand new. I scratched one once and found that out the hard way. What did you end up getting off her?Sahin wrote:The guy that has this car now got it from an auction... It was written off from an accident with two trees

Re: I never should have sold her. R.I.P.
We're going back quite a few years and my memory's a bit sketchy but I think I paid somewhere between $180 - $250 per wheel. Repairing one wheel - again, quite some years back - cost almost $300.Sahin wrote:How much were the rims brand new? He only wants $400 for them

The unit wouldn't be much good without the controller so I'm guessing it would be.Astron_Boy wrote:Was the cruise control still in there?

Re: I never should have sold her. R.I.P.
Yea he said he still had the whole unit, wants to sell the rest as a whole though or it will start to lose value - and i will HiRAEdd - is there anything in particular you want off this car that will still be on it for memories sake? happy to put something aside for you

Re: I never should have sold her. R.I.P.
haha, thanks for the offer but nah, I don't think there's any one item worthy of a keepsake. I've got a photo of her blown up on canvas in my office, that's my keepsakeTaz wrote:is there anything in particular you want off this car that will still be on it for memories sake? happy to put something aside for you
