My cousin had a car wreck and He's undecided on what to do. I know for sure he doesn't want insurance to have the car(They are wanting to total it). He either has a JDM B16a or b(guessing b16a) that he doesn't want to part with.. So anyway, should he try to fix this or swap his setup into a 97 del sol?

swap it....you'll need alot of money to fix it and crx parts arent that easy to find.

He's looking at another crx to swap into I think. I would have went with the del sol just to switch it up and drop the top from time to time.

that'll cost more than what the car is worth.

Well they say my cuz ran a red light hit the bumper of one car then I guess the street sweeper finished him off. I dunno if he ran it or not, but when u got 2 folks saying their light was green for them vs. 1 saying they had the green......well what can ya do.

Just let the insurance company total it, then retain the salvage. They will only take like 150 off the value of the car if you keep it. Then you can sell the damn shell to a junkyard once he's done with it to a junk yard for like 100bucks.
