Default Crashed my car, how much can I get for it?

I am not parting out yet. Deciding on what if I should do. So please don't ask me for parts as of yet

So it rained saturday and my car hydroplaned and I spun around on the highway and ran straight into the concrete center divider.

I don't think it would be worth it to fix it so I was wondering how much do you guys think I can get for my car.

Car as 203k miles on it. transmission was replaced with used one with 80k on it. Never had a problem starting the car. In fact it still starts if I pour in some coolant in it. Engine was not damage in the accident.

The car has the Supra Tokico blue with eibach pros. Vertex rep kit need some fiberglass works on the bottom of side skirts

All the panels are in great condition with the exception of the driver side fender and hood.

I plan on keeping my wheels, 97+ taillights, front seats and the audio system.

I don't think you'll be getting much for it; may be better off parting it out.

^^^Wished my car was a 300 and live closer to you now lol.

Yeah I kinda thought that parting out might be only choice too. Just don't really want to deal with it.

How much do you think the junk yard would take it for?

Damn that sucks! Were you the guy I sold the brand new '97+ foglights to over a year ago?

You never gave me any trader score feedback for those foglights.
