    Hey guys.
    Just seeking advice on weather to sell my car as a write off complete - rolled onto the roof.just has body damage. Everything else is good. Motor and everything is A1. Has only done 140k 1994 model aus spec.

    Or should I spend the time parting it out?

    I don't know what it would be worth etc as a complete car. Has some nice mods for an NA.

    It's the vehicle from my online garage on this site.

    Apologies moderators if this has broken site rules.

    You'll generally get more money parting out than selling as a wreck but you need to weigh up time and effort, if you're on $25/per hour working full time and don't have ample storage space chances are it isn't worth the stuff around.

    I think wrecks usualy go for about $1000 to $1500

    Items that spring to mind that you can sell off it indiviudually
    AFM $100+
    Front brakes $150+
    Manual conversion ~$1000
    NA powersteering pump with resevoir should go for $100 or so
    Your interior looks good so should be worth at least a few hundred but finding someone who is will to pay to have a nice interior can be difficult.
    If your AC and light sidepods are unbroken I think they're sought after, not sure if late aus spec are the same as late j-spec.
    Engine will depend a lot on condition, if you can still start it maybe do a compression test, Chev28 is looking for a good NA engine.
    Then there's bits and pieces that will be more of a quick sale when someone needs it like windows, window regs, brake booster and master cylinders.

    All those prices are ball park figures off the top of my head, you should definitely do some more research before making a sale. If you have free time on your hands there's money to be had from wrecking but if you don't have the patience for timewasters I'd just make the one sale.

    Double your fun, part out all the fiddly little components that no one can ever seem to find enough of and the sell the wreck afterwards, it will still be valuable as scrap with a whole lot of useless plastic components no longer attached.
