Price on stock set up?

Long story short, I let a buddy borrow my car, he crashed it, only had liability and his insurance wouldn't cover it. Being that the car was paid off I just bought a new one and this one just sits. It is now time to do something with it. If I pull all of the audio/nav set up how much should/could I sell it for? This is kind of off topic but would I be better of selling the car as a whole or parting it out? The front end is shot, but everything else is good from the radiator back, to include motor and transmission. Thanks for any input, if I put this in the wrong section, I apologize.

make a list of everything you can salvage, I would go on Ebay, and look up all the parts you are wanting to sell and see how much other people are selling them for. That should give you an idea of how much you could possibly make, if you price items competitively with other sellers. Also Ebay now offers a free classified ad section, that also will show up in searches with the regular Ebay items. You can always place pictures of the car and the good parts, and say that you are parting it out and have folks contact you if they want a certain part. Then when you are done parting it out, and if you have nothing but scrap metal left over even the motor if it is bad, you can take it to a place that will pay for metal by the pound, or post it for free on Craigslist and someone will take it for sure, because that is what they will do with it.

By front end being shot, what does that mean exactly? Would someone be able to put the front back together and be able to drive it again? Or was it totaled?
