Thought you guys might be interested in these. The little car held up pretty good for what it was put through. Right now I am dealing with the question as what to do with the car? Any suggestions? I was considering trying to save it...adding a body kit in the long run. Maybe creating a large go cart for pure play. Or parting it out?

...The trans mounts did break and pushed the motor forward. Therefore my shifter is not working correctly. I am hoping the shifter will work when I get the trans/engine back in place...

Yep, helps dissapate the impact. Does it look kinda like this (what mine looked like)? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

My engine and tranny were still good (but my impact was "only" 35mph). If you junk it make sure you strip it of EVERYTHING! There are a LOT of good parts that you'll want when you get another (my situation right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).
