I never thought I would post one of these threads.
Im glad it wasnt me.
I just built this car for my youngest brother n law.
06 cobalt ran red light yesterday afternoon, both cars totaled.
No clue how insurance is going to deal with this.
This 745 has been in turbobrickers hands for more than a few years, pretty sad.
No injuries in this accident.
BTW, hyrdra was installed after accident, draco is in pieces.

Glad the people are alright.

It better have filled out it's organ donor card, I know there are a few 240's that could use that engine.

Well, This car has already made another 240 faster, traded the motors/transmissions about a month ago with my 90 245. So it was rolling NA when it was hit. Can anybody use this thing? $300 is what its worth to me in scrap metal + battery. I just dont feel like pulling out the fuel tank to sell at crusher. Dont even want to touch it. Will Deliver!!!

b230ft/16t is already in my 90 245.

I lied about the other car, turns out it was a 06 pathfinder.
