Nice Sean, sounds like a good plan for the unfortunate lady. Very cool of you to get her all setup. Look forward to the new swap/build (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

That sucks. Shame to see a clean car like that meet it's demise. Hopefully you can swap the parts into another chassis.
If you do end up with the carcass and want to part it send me a pm. I could use some sheet metal you'd probably be scraping anyway (front windshield frame) and I'm also in SD. |

Bummer but this bears out what I have been saying to back daters. "Why bother"; The reason Porsche and a host of other companies were forced to replace shit with a solid bumper were the cars were collapsing like cardboard boxes.
These photos are testimony to why the late bumper cars are better, stronger and safer. Yep, agreed don't look as pretty but personally I would prefer not to have the fuel tank sitting in my lap after an accident. |

Maybe you can salvage the rear half for a Car-B-Q ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
