Well heres the original story http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145304

basically ive got a ford explorer with front drivers side damage to the a-arm and front crossmember.. welll i never got around to repairing it due to money reasons but im considering selling it. I was curious as to how much i could get for it in this condition. Fist, the hood has scratches and the front plastic is a bit messed up from a prior incident.. but everything else is in good condition. The transmision was recently replaced at a stealership for 2400 dollars along with 800 dollars worth of brake work. The engine has 100k on it the new trans has about 20K with i belive 10K left on the warranty. What should i do in the situation i want to get as much back out of it as i can. I was considering ebay, but i also saw some places in the phone book like salvage yards that buy damaged vehicles.... would i at least be able to get 1000 out of it? or more or less?

need advice,,, would i do better parting it out,,, i know its got to be worth something hell each window cost 800 bucks the back glass with the heating coils in it no telling how much that is worth. plus its even possible it could be repaird.. would i do better parting it out??? seems like alot of trouble tho. the body its self is in good condition
 






It's a lot of work to part out, but there could certainly be some money to be made there. It's just a lot of work to do so....

Now, that being said, I've got dibbs on the rear window defrost switch. :)

Did we ever get a pic of this.

Also if your parting it out and have the power moonroof... hold onto that switch for me:p

But I would love to see pics of the explorer.
 






hey if this is 4wd i could use the entire front assembly if that is still in good condition....
 






lol its 2wd, but im going to check a lil more into selling it whole see what im expecting to get for it. then ill decide from there
