Not to be mean but you can prolly salvage some parts off that car and sell it and buy one in better condition for a fraction of the cost to just fix the front end not to mention the rest of the car...imo. If nothing else, you trully have a beater! GL.

Your sig made me laugh.

[red325]

I hope you didn't buy that for more than about five hundred...

Welcome Red Shirt. Looks like you have a bit of a project there.

[Farbin Kaiber]

good luck. You will learn a lot about putting that thing back to it's former glory here. One thing I can suggest is to use the search function, all the time.

And, welcome to the site.

I bet that car is a blast. I like how you posted a list of broken items. Most people jump on and add a list of mods - pfft!

[dannyyisntt]

I'm not sure, but that sounds about right. Its hit some snow banks and a deer or two. I've been replacing the fog and blinker lenses with bullet proof lexan so I don't have to worry about that anymore.

well, it would be fun to play with, learn how to drift in corners, etc and not have to worry if you hit anything
id drive it into the ground, and then part it
