I heard some good news today form my dad. Some guy offered him a 98 svt contour. The only thing is that my dad works at an auto body shop....and the guy offered it to him through the shop and it just so happenes that it has been in a wreck!:( He offered the guy $600 for the car, and he says that it needs like $1,500 in parts. I drive a 95 contour lx right now, so this would be an improvement over what i'm driving. But that is assuming that I will get it. By the way my name is chris, i sorta joined this site about a month ago, and havent been to active in the forums part of the site yet.

Well according to him, the right front was hit. He said it needs a front bumper, at least one headlight, rim and tire, right front suspension, hood...i think, and the frame needs to be puled a little. It was a total because the damage exceded the value of the car. But the insurance companys always try to screw you over when you wreck a car. everything else is fine though. It had about 60,000 miles on it, and it is a maroon red, leather interrior...and all that fun stuff that the SVT's have.

oh yeah i know all about totalled contours unfortunately . u may wanna find out if the driveline is all alright. if it got hit in the wheel it could ram the driveaxle into the transaxle.

Still no news on the tour yet....this is buggin me. I think he is doing this on purpose! lol....oh well, about the damage thing....whatever is broken he will fix. I doubt that my dad will leave anything unfixed....but the only bad thing is that he wont tell me how its going to get paid off. And if so then i will have to sell my other contour Even if i do hate it at times, it is still my first car! I think there might be like a bond with a person and their first car. anyways i will bring more news when i get it.
