Hi guys I thought I'd post this here before going other routes. I was on my way home from work Friday night and som asshole pulled out in front of me headed my way straight down the center of the road. My only choices were to ditch it or hit him head on. I was able to get far enough into the right burm that he didn't hit me but it was icy and I over corrected coming out of it. I went off the left side of the road and wiped out a road sign. I just have liability insurance and for me it makes more sense to buy something else than to try to fix it.
So here it is my 2003 Town Car Signature Series. 80,500 miles. Everything works except the A/C has a leak somewhere and the heated seats don't work. It'll need a drivers window and mirror for sure. You can do what you want with the fender and door. The door opens and closes fine but it is dented and scraped up. I had it towed from the wreck site to my dads and put a piece of plexiglas in the window just so I could drive it the 35 miles home. It runs and drives just fine and there is no damage underneath. The body is rust free, underneath isn't perfect but it isn't bad for a car that's spent 17 winters in Ohio. I figure with the rust free body, 80k miles, and minimal damage I should be able to get $2000 for it if I'm patient and wait for the right buyer. Depending on your state laws on the window and mirror you could just drive it as is. Here I'm looking at at least a $200 fine for each, and with my work schedule I don't have time to fix it. Outdoor pics are from when I bought the car in July 2019. Pics of the damage will be obvious.
