    Angry VX crashed, need parts ASAP

    My Vx got crashed into buy a Subaru, the witness and the police say it was his fault but I have had problems in the past with other peoples insurance not paying. We will see what happens. Nobody was hurt at least we do not feel hurt tonight we might feel different tomorrow morning. The only casualty today was the Subaru, I think it might be dead.
    I am going to need parts so if anyone has a parts car please let me know.

    Thanks, I saw that so I looked up what a new one really costs and they are asking more than double the actual cost so I will not be buying it from them. http://www.isuzupartscenter.com/part...=1&searchtext=

    Yeah, don't believe that "last piece anywhere" BS. My shop was able to put hands on a brand new piece for a few hundred bucks not that long ago.

    Can you tell me where they got the parts in case they got them cheaper than I can find them?

    Hiya Christine ...

    I may be able to help with some of the parts.
    I have a crashed one, but damage was other side

    I dont have a front cladding piece, bumper bar or rad mounts...
    ..but I can probably help with tie rod, A-arm etc

    If you up a list of what you need....and I'll see what I've got


    Cheers

    Cool thanks, I cannot take it apart or do anything until the insurance adjuster looks at it, once that happens we can get a list of stuff we need for it.
    I did see an IronMan on the Denver CL http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/4931998076.html they say it is crashed but the pictures don't really show any and I do not know if I want to part out a decent IronMan. Maybe someone here wants it.

    Are you going to Moab this year? I am planning to go the VX should be fixed by then.

    Don't know if this is legit or not but showed up today...

    http://cosprings.craigslist.org/cto/4933880641.html

    $1,500 and needs work, but looks like all the parts you need are in great shape...

    Let me know if you want to get this and I'll put some money in for some parts that I may need as well.

    Or you could probably pick this up, part it out, and fix yours for almost free...

    Looks like it was Rampage108 until it came to CO.

    Ron front plate and grill plus roof rack add up to about half the cost of that proton. Sale seats and extra cladding pieces and you've made your money back and still have a ton of parts left.

    Were you able to reach a deal and get this one?

    I noticed it's gone from CL.
