My MX72 wagon was totaled last night and towed there. it has LOTS of good parts. Interior is good(blue),motor(5M-GE), body panels(silver),etc... I just want my CD player,trans, and drive shaft, and rims. The rest is up for grabs to any one who can help me get it out and trailered back to my parents house in Red Oak (DeSoto). The drivers front fender, door and grill/corner lights ar destroied as well as the drivers side LCA. It still starts and moves around on 3 wheels haha! Need your help more than ever guys. Hit me up ASAP! :wink:

Totaled? What happened now? Didn't it just get backed into by a moving truck a few days ago?

Wow. I'm sorry dude, I can definitely feel for you. :oops: Are you sure it's beyond repair, or do you just not care what happens to it at this point?

How fast do you need to get it out of there. If you can pay for gas I might have a friend that can help. I will check and find out.

Yeah, I could use the door panels and a couple of other pieces. I forget, what did the grill look at on the wagon, or did it get trashed in the wreck?

The grill is intact but the little tabs on the back are broken. Easy fix. But some of the chrome is flaking off where the hood latch is. Im up loadin wreck pics now.

AWWWW, poor wagon. Yeah your grill sounds like it is pretty much in the same shape as mine. Good luck on getting that new MX73, I hope it goes well.

I got money for gas but by the time i have next weekend rolls around I dont think I'll be able to cover the impound and storage fees. Unless they'll let us pull parts at the impound I think im s.o.l.

Usually they won't. When this happened to a 210 wagon I had many years ago I was only allowed to remove personal belongings, not anything attached to the car. :x

Yeah, this happened to me in LA too. I wasn't allowed to yank parts, though after much begging I got one of the impound dudes to let me pull my steering wheel.
