Default 99 escort, what should I do?

My girlfriend has a 99 escort with around 82,000 miles on it and the car hydroplaned and went into the ditch. some front end damage and both airbags deployed.

So I was wondering should I try and part it out? or should I try to find another escort with a blown engine and put the old engine in it?
any imput would be greatly appreciated, and if anyone knows anyone that wants the car let me know.

Jesse

The car isnt totaled but with the damage to the front plus the airbags going off, its not even worth fixing...

I'm sorry to hear that. The best thing you can do to an Escort is total it.
