Thanks again,
Keith
After seeing pictures of the rear, I thought for sure the passenger side tips would be mangled. If they are still in good condition though, I'm interested.

We had quite a ride my friend! Always the outcasts until they figured out the AMG's weren't the pigs that the magazines describe

Time for a DTC

If you still want a dual duty then look at the C7 Z51 or be patient and wait for the next gen Z06. Or be really crazy and pick up an FRS and do an LS swap

Keith, if you are considering getting the SLS, SGA Exclusive is already able to get their hands on Black Series parts for it

In case anyone is interested in the car/motor. Its got the MHP Race ported heads and cams. The motor is worth more than $15,000 so $8100 is a steal.

Check out some of the other C63's on there. Ouch. One had a child seat in the backseat! Scary stuff.

Based on the driver side door damage, it looks like that vehicle was t boned. The windshield damage may have been used to assist emergency responders with passenger extraction.

And seeing that baby seat (since I also have one in my back seat).. is heart breaking, I hope the child was not in the vehicle.

WOW, not alot to salvage on that Austin TX C63 with the baby seat in the back. That car could easily be haunted

Dads, enjoy the part out. Trust me you will sell everything.

I have a couple doors left and some interior stuff, the rest of the car sold. I was really quite surprised.

Just out of curiosity, did you make more money selling the parts off over having sold the vehicle as a whole had the car not been in an accident?

Only reason I ask is because when the warranty runs out on my car, my wife is going to make me trade it (it has been in the shop, alot, and we cannot afford the repairs in the event something catastrophic fails). Since I still owe around 25k on the 2009 MY (I bought it in 2010 used with 14k on the clock), and for the most part the car is in good condition, but I doubt I would be able to sell it for what I owe due to the mileage I put on it (almost 75k miles in 3 years), I'm wondering if I parted it out would I be able to break even..

Steve,
I’m here but I have not been back in an AMG since the accident. Not sure I would be any help in the Mercedes arena. Good luck with your project!

Any chance you took some pics of what was required to make it work?
