point of this thread is?
for $5k it would have some damage to it and unless you had another $10k or so to fix it it wouldnt be worth it. if yuo wanted to part it out, i doubt youd get your money back from an xr6.

Fix the front bar on it, and put 10k on it. Thats if that is the only problem with it.

Cos its a ute, about the only things that would fit would be the wheels (which youve already got), lights, trans and motor. If its an XR6 the only different thing about the motor is the head and ECU anyway, and with a few mods you're in stock XR6 territory. Steering wheel would fit, as would seats, but downside is you'd have 2 mismatching sets of seats. Ute exhaust is different to sedan so no good to you, diff gears would fit and would be worthwhile, but if its repairable, chances are that's what the guy will do - fix it and sell it off.
