Why not just replace that corner and the rad support?

You can low ball him too. I bought a whole sail panel two years ago for 75 shipped. he wanted like 170 I think.
OR just go to a junk yard and cut off what you need. Im sure you know someone with a welder.

Good to see your 'keeping it in the family' ;)

Haha for sure man!

Probably going to be pulling the engine this weekend. It seems like the engine/tranny has shifted a bit after the impact so I need to see whats up.

Nice pickup, wasn't that somebody's car here on R3V?

Ya it was Erics. We built it in my garage last spring. Sad to see it all smashed up like this. Its heart will live on though :D

Picked up a new project last week. Unfortunately the shell is beyond saving without a frame rack. I will be looking for another clean shell to swap all of these parts into.

Whats the other 24v all about in the background?

I bought that engine for the oil pan and sold it to Matt-B. In that picture I am loading it up in the trailer and taking it to his house.

You're going to love that. It cleans it up so nicely. It's even better when it doesn't leak ;)

Looking good man! I will have to come check your rides out sometime

[Wishno87]

Spray bomb it. It'll help the ugly factor greatly and you can do some off-color primer if you really wanted.


You pulled up in this thing when I sold you the A's and man, I was a little jealous. I love me some 4 door beater.

Well the paint is actually decent on this one unlike last year's beater. Its just im tired of the RDs and the diving boards haha. My exhaust was too low to run the type As but after I change headers that wont be a problem anymore.

I gotta admit I really miss this look though.
