Default 92/93 SSE SC, possible parts car?

I figured this would go here since it'* Bonne related.

Anyways, I was driving today, and happened to go down a side street, and saw this -

Now... I KNOW this car has been sitting since around November, as I drove past the very same house on around Thanksgiving, and it was sitting in the same exact spot, unmoved, and covered in leaves. Does anyone think it'* too early to leave a note asking about possibly selling the car? I am definitely interested in it if it'* for sale. It would be a excellent parts car, or maybe even a beater if the engine and trans is working.

That'* very likely a 92, and it'* been rear-ended. Drop a note. Better yet, be personal about it and knock on the door.

I'd go with '93, only because it looks identical to mine...uh, before the front end was smashed. I have a bumper cover that'* in much better shape than that one...

I dunno. I couldn't tell whether that one in the pic is the bright white or "ivory" white.

Contrast with the snow makes me think it'* more ivory.

Default did you ask?

Don't the wheels tell us it'* a '92? Or at least it has'92 wheels on it?

You gotta stop by and ask, might catch someone in the right mood, it seems you always hear stories like "That'* my *.O.B. husband'* car and he ran off with the babysitter in October, here'* the keys, it'* yours if it'* gone by sundown!!"
Worry about the title later...
The worst thing that happens is you get the door slammed in your face, or the rabid German Shepard rips your throat out as you step up on the porch.
Go with a friend, in case you walk right into a Zed, Maynard & the Gimp scene from Pulp Fiction.

To help answer the question, I also think it'* a good time to check with the owner by your preferred method. See if you can drive over in something other than a Bonneville.
