WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! far out thats insane. If anyone came close to surviving in that then its a miracle. There was definately some speed behind that.

[FPV8U]

Ouch...

[ThePistonHead]

Damn that's some serious damage! Was it a ute or sedan?

[bangm001]

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?

[schnoods]

Ok since now one has said it.

ba hahaha

I like the add's description of the damage "Damage Details - Rear Damage"

Yeah, and then some!

[Cruise]

Just a couple of cans of bog and she'll be fine

I find it slighty morbid that people could actully "pick apart" the final resting place of a persons death, if indeed that is the case... that thing should just go straight to the tip...

Plenty of wreckers pick-a-apart vehicles which involved fatalities.

[henry_ford]

umm, there is no way that will buff out.
at least not without a really good cutting compund!!

Looks like it will need a bit of rust work doing on it as well.

[DJM83]

: how the hell did anyone survive that.
btw its a sedan as you can see the fuel filler on the rear quarter

[Sprint347]

might go take a look its in perth.. the motor and MAYBE box should be ok

doubt it.
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.

[ieatsports_cars]

its amazing that you can tell that form thay car, iam sure there had to be a death !

Or a large truck could have smashed into it while it was parked...

[fmc351]

Bugger!

[Dezza]

So that'd be a "repairable write-off"? :P

[Pinkbits]

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

[kocho]

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. :(

I have photos that i took at my in-laws holding yard of a new 5 week old XF wagon that was parked and rear ended by an ex-ambulance F100. The family had left the car 5 mins prior to the smash. Talk about lucky!

I agree, it's most likely to have been hit by a truck at high speed. If there were any occupants in it at the time of the crash then they would have probably been killed instantly.

This is probably one of the worst Falcon wrecks I have ever seen - modern or old.

[stupa]

Comes complete with assorted body parts?

[Bobman]

Ouch indeed.

Some nut will still probably pay $5000 for this.

Why not?

Brakes still worth 2-3K, cylinder head, rods and possibly block would be ok There is a car full of modules (brake, crash, engine control etc) as well as a lot of undamged harnessing.

I'm sure you would get more than 5K from that car.

I guess if you're lucky, but I'd rather buy a 5k turbo with minimal damage and make double that.

Trouble is finding a buyer. Not many out there would would want to buy something off a car that has that severe kind of damage.

Considering the price of stuff on eBay at the moment, it could be worth it.

And all of it crammed into the glovebox already.

Makes for ease of removal

I meant to say in my other post:

Hope there was no fatal in that car, hopefully just a parked rear-ender by a semi or such. If there was a death, then my thoughts to the family.
