Well it's Thursday and I have finally worked up the courage to show you the latest mod to my car. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
Short story shorter, Chevy suburban hitch vs. 914 bumper, obvious results, totally my fault. Question is what should I do? 1. Fix the car because it had a great body many fixes, shocks, suspension, engine bay, interior etc. 2. Find a good roller hear in Cali transfer all parts. 3. Save my money, part this car out, and buy someone's six conversion which is what I was planning for this car someday. Attached image(s)

you're kidding, right?
okay - clearly, to atone, you must sell this car to someone in the NorthEast for $100, and start over from square one. only a Californian would even be asking this question ... :-) |

If you don't have the heart to fix it, sell it. Someone OUTSIDE of California would jump on it in a heartbeat.
I fixed worse on my car. |

fix that BITCH! it's not that bad looking to me! even taking it to a body shop is a cheaper/smarter solution than selling it, or buying a roller! |

That's totally fixable. In fact, that's easy. Get it fixed.

You guys are tough! I am a nut and bolt guy, not very good at body work.
From the looks of it I need a new front fender hood and bumper. The light bucket is jacked and I am concerned about the passenger door. Before the moment of stupidity the door fit ~ok, a little snug. Now the door opens but it is tight. Is it worth trying to straighten the whole body/frame? |
