I now own a wrecked Miata. I have been brainstorming since Friday (the day my brother wrecked said miata) what to do with it. I was planning on selling it because i had too many insurance payments and owned too many cars. But now that the car is wrecked it opens up new possibilities. (in my mind at least)
Here are some ideas i had in my mind, read em over and give your thoughts or advice or what not.
A) Throw in the towel and sell it as it sits. I had my fun with the car so maybe i should just let it go and move on.
B) Completely part it out. My only concern with this is that i might only make as much as selling it out right but more effort and time involved.
C) Fix it to drive well enough, pretty it up a touch, strip it, throw R-comps on it and take it to the challenge. After the challenge i could sell it or part it out.
D) Much like Plan C but then keep it as a AutoX only car. Lighten the piss outta it and just drive it at my local clubs events
E) Buy a super clean tub and transfer my good parts over to it and keep it forever.
F) Make a locost. (highly unrealistic, but i was looking at an old thread on the website and was thinking how cheap i could build at least a autoX only car use front and rear subframes and all stock compnonets and just add some basic frame and a seat )
G) Strip all the parts needed to make a running car (whole subframe and electrical and just save/store it for a future project
Im really in a bind and would like to do something with it within a few weeks. So like i said whats your ideas, thoughts or what not with my situation
If totaled, make brother pull it apart, sell the interior/trim stuff, and keep the mechanical spares for the Miata that you buy with the insurence money.
Then option D
