I think that the wiper blades are about the only thing you could re-use on that one!! And maybe the VIN no to rebirth a XRT into a F6?? Scrap metal anyone?

the drive shaft would have toasted the box which would have toasted the engine. ill even has a guess and say the engine has moved that far forward, that its pushed the bumper bar off with the radiator. |

I'm tipping it was rear ended by a truck, either parked or whilst moving.

Would have to be Pinkbits, horrible to see, but how else could something like that happen?
What a shame for the family and friends involved. :(

Looks like its been chewed up and then spat out again! The only thing worth saving would be the F6 badge on the grill

Looks exactly like the one that used to park outside my workplace in West Perth (going by rims, front bar, and paint). Now I know why it stopped showing up about a month or so ago...
What a shame. Looks like there isn't much to salvage either. |

A very sad sight indeed. I like the bit in the ad where its says "Rear Damage"
Anyone know what happened to that yellow F6 that rolled on the M7 in Sydney 2-3 months ago - the one that was involved in a street race? Speaking of the F6 - spotted a Venom BF F6 in Engadine yesterday driven by a uniformed copper
