Answer
Hello Mia,
The first thing I would suggest is to talk to your insurance company about when it was stolen, there obviously has been serious damage to your car when they stole it. See if they will cover, or partially cover some of the incurring costs. When you are looking to sell look at local papers/mags that are dedicated to used car sales, then advertise in there. 2 other sources are cars.com and craigslist.org, that one is free and you can post 4 pics of your car (i use that frequently) Hope that helps!
