Question about 99 Civic Rolling Chassis?

My car got stolen and got recovered with everything under the hood gone and my fog lights. I am thinking of selling the shell, how much do you think I could sell it for?

It happened Friday morning between Midnight and 4 A.M. Its actually a rolling chassis. Everything on the inside of the car is there but the ECU.

The CF hood, headlights, tail lights, rims, mirrors are still there. I am in VA.

I have comprehension. What do you think the insurance will do? My dad said if the insurance totals the car they will give me what the car is worth minus a deductible, Is that true? He said for the car to be totalled it will have to cost half or more than half of what the car is worth to fix it. I am sure it is going to cost atleast $4,000 or more to get the car is perfect running order.

I think a sohc swap would be more than $300 for an Engine an transmission.

I dont really want to keep the car, I have had it broken into a few times and now stolen. I have not had much luck with it. I have had it for 4 years and I think its time for a new car.

This is whats missing from under the hood including the engine and transmission:

the battery, battery box, radiator, a/c condensor, power steering pump resivoir, cv axles, throttle cable coming from the clutch pedal, my strut bar, headlight bulbs. They also took the fog lights and the switch and the ignition switch needs to be replaced.

Arlington, VA The car was stolen from right infront of my house. I really hope they do total it. I am either going to put my old motor in there and sell it like that, or sell the shell, or maybe part it out. I will figure out what I am going to do after the insurance person comes by. I will let you know if I part it.

The insurance person came by and said the car is most likely going to be totalled.
