Default WTB: I need badly any Oil Pan for '00 MT !!! :)

Any one with extra oil pan for sale? I hit a huge pole on the interstate and knocked my A/C compressor and broke the oil pan. I need more parts but I want to check the engine first. So, any samaritan around with extra oil pan? Thank you

Wow, that's ugly.

Where are you located? Looks like you need an oil pickup also. EDIT: Never mind, sold the oil pan I had.

Please put your location in your profile/details/location..................... so others know what highways to stay off of. Heck of an impact from the looks of the oil pickup tube.

Were you running with the lower aero panels on at the time?

Wow, I think you need a new oil pan worse than anyone I've ever seen!

If all else fails, you can buy a new one at Majestic, but it will co$t you:

You can try to find someone with an oil pan that has busted the drain plug threads. Plug the drain with a stud and see if the engine works.

My condolences. I saw an Insight engine with a softball sized hole in the oil pan but yours was a decapitation. Hopefully the pickup tube is supposed to have that kink in it. Best of luck.
