What to do with a broken LS400

Ok I know where to find the rarest DSM part possible but when it comes to these cars I have no clue.

I was just at my boss' house and he has a '92 LS400 (or was it 430) in his garage that he spun in the rain and hit, so the car is not worth repairing. But can we sell anything from it (motor is good afaik, same for interior etc), do I post like a part out ad (like we do with DSMs) somewhere or what? Are any parts in particular demand? Is it worth it or should we just scrap the car?

I'm really clueless. Thanks for any advice.

Post the part out in the for sale section... post the car color, interior color, and options, as well as pics. I may need things myself.

Sell it on Ebay....just advertise appropriately....put down the full facts and sell as is...piece of cake...Start the auction with a buck and put no reserve ; you'll be surprised how many sharks jump at it...might fetch over $ 3K.....and possibly go to $5K....however, take a lot of pictures ; look at ads by other dealers, copy their format ; use Microsoft Frontpage and snag the ad into Frontpage and replace pictures with the ones you take - the more effort you make making a good ad with lots of pictures and description that much better you will do....

My 2 cents.
