    salvage beast(not really)

    Im starting to rebuild my car on monday, so i thought i would take pictures along the way.







    so far i bought smileys, hood, fenders, nose piece, fog lights, brake vents, euro grill, kidney grill, H&R 20mm wheel spacers(why not), electric fan, splitter, and some other goodies, i still have $2000 left from insurance, but ill need paint, i think ill buy some new bumper strips.as for the rad support thats why the hammer was invented.

      the car was killed when parked at the side of the street in front of a friends house, while i was at graduation. some "essay" decided not to look behind him while he was reversing and from what i can tell he must of floored it because how could reversing into a car bend the rad support.oh and the brakes were new.:D

                          bodyshop wont give me the car until insurance mails them money, and insurance is refusing to overnight a check, they said they will mail the check but first we have to return the rental car and sign a release form. but if we wait any longer we have to pay the bodyshop even more for storage and the insurance check wont cover it. the bodyshop was yelling at the insurance people on the phone it was funny.

                            insurance called and they are more willing to pay us $3800 and total the car then give the bodyshop $900 and be done.
