I sent one to an electrical grave by driving it with a bad radiator... waiting... and waiting... and waiting...... for the Aluminum one. 80k miles.
May it be parted in peace.

Even with a blown up engine, we should never part the car. Try fitting a WRX/STi engine or the Legacy 3.0L but keep the car running...
BTW, does anybody knows about the Liberty RSK Twin Turbo engine??? My friend bought one to fit in his Porsche 914 , he found it for $400 (nobody would buy it because for its size it cannot be fitted inside an impreza), he is a mechanical engineer...

It was NOT at my facility at the time, but could have been, if the insurance company wasn't such a BRAIN DEAD A**-H@@le!!! The same agent asked me "why I needed so many cars, when I could only drive one at a time"..... I said, " Why don't we just haul everything over 5 years old to the CRUSHER, and everyone drive a BEAMER!!! and we can tell Dr Mike that He doesn't really NEED 30 Corvettes, and the insurance company has determined that that is too many Corvettes for 1 man to own!!" I have SINCE found an insurance company that does NOT make such judgements!!!

I gave a good home to one that had been on a dealer's lot long enough for small creatures to nest above the muffler heat shield, and another that seemingly had precious little TLC in ages (with moldering, three-year old architectural drawings in the trunk), and I drive both regularly and they seem happy, so I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum. Given someplace to put 'em, I'd take in a couple more.

The Phoenix!
I killed one......but spent $13K to bring it back to life Ok, not all of the $13K came from me.....11K came from Insurance...but i paid the rest on my own. That was 6 years ago and I still have it but its sitting out in the parking lot awaiting me to put a new engine in it, or have its current one rebuilt (It leaks more oil than my dads great dane slobbers).

I've parted 2, But not by choice. But I've also saved 2. 1 being my own which has a very loving and good home after being through the auction system and sitting on a car lot for a good while, And the other is my Moms which she bought from a goofball kid who had it pretty trashed. It now has 4.44's and has had about 80% of the screw ups fixed. But, My car or my Moms wouldn't be nearly as nice and put together as they are if not for the parts cars, So at least they served a good purpose.

Well, I have bought 2 different parts SVX's, one was wrecked and pretty stripped when I got it (a 95 LS-Tour), but still had a good motor (is gone now), and the other (a 95 L AWD) was wrecked all over) and it's motor and ECU lives on in FrankenWedge, and it's windshild is in my Pearl Yellow SVX.... (still have the 95 if anyone needs parts that are close by)
