For those who have not heard, Lennies914's car got smashed when his son was driving it back from Southern California a few months ago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
So this thread is to document the swap to the new chassis and maybe even organize a BBQ/work party for the final push to get it back on the road! Here are some photos of the original yellow donor car! Attached thumbnail(s) |

QUOTE looks like the new tub used to be yellow That yellow is the color of the original dash! I have heard that they used to use what parts they had left at the end of the previous model year first. The car is black with a black paint code and has only had a light second coat put over the original paint! It is one of the cleaner bare tubs I have seen! It has a small amount of rust in the drivers rear floor because the PO added a trunk pull and cut a large hole in the firewall for the water to flow right in! I can see no evidance that the car has ever been in an accedent! |
