Unhappy totaled my gen3... parting out...

k guys so here's the story. im in high school and i have class starting at 7... this happened technically early saturday morning, but here's what happened that day. went to school at 7, then i went home and cleaned my car to get ready to play in the marching band at my school's football game. im also the pep band leader so i direct the pep band. anyways, as soon as half time was over and the band finished performing, i went with my girlfriend to the "royal ball" which is a dance for all the girls who try out for rose court for the pasadena rose parade... anyways, we went there and i dropped her off at around 1 am. needless to say it was a long day and i was about 1/2 mile from my house and i dont remember anything after dropping her off, but i must have fallen asleep and hit a tree... luckily i was the only one in the car, and i escaped with a broken ankle and a broken femur, both on the right leg... they rushed me to trauma center and they did surgery and put titanium rods and screws in my leg, but im home from the hospital now so i figured i'd update you guys. im not too much of an active poster but i've been researching these forums for weeks, so i figured i'd let you guys know.

i recently bought a SRI intake for the 1MZ engine (V6), made by Ractive, still in box, but i totaled the car just before i installed it, so im selling that. sold
both front control arms, with bushings and bearings, still in box, 130 shipped
i also bought precut window tint for my car, 20% in all rear windows, 35% on 2 front windows, but i never put that on either so add the intake and tint to my list of sales...

picture says it all.
here are the parts that are still in tact:
rear tail lights
U-shaped radio/cig. lighter thing
a few random parts survived
guys please email me if you're interested or have any questions...
im trying to make a few bucks off this car so i can hopefully buy myself another toyota...
thanks for your help guys

Glad to hear you're ok. Amazing that you came out of that with just a broken leg, not that that's not a big deal. Wish you well on your recovery and search for a new ride.
