The REBUILD...
I'm gonna continue to update ya'll and post pics... maybe a mod could make this a sticky:poke:
OK... Day 1... I pulled the car into the garage... Removed hood, front bumper cover (from under car), driver side fender, and several other misc under hood part... A fix looks very very possible... It seems that the strut bar stiffened the car and prevented the frame from being bent behind the struts... The smog pump is destroyed too... So far no major frame damage, or engine damage... I'll post more pics tomarrow morning... |
Gentlemen. We Can fix this car. We Have the Technology.

By the looks of it the car looked non-fixable, but I am glad you feel that you can fix it...me personally, I would scrap it for parts and get a different car...but the best of luck to you and the rebuild.

heres some pics... You can see where the frame pinched and bent... so far only frame damage is in front of the struts... so this could be a very easy chop... |

all that **** up front by the radiator and bumper is cheap and easy to fix... it looks bad... but from the struts back she looks ok... |
Does this mean you'll finally be getting new headlights? ;)

she is quite fixxable... starting a part list... looks like my best bet is to find a mustang with rear end damage... this is gonna be a long, fun, project... |
Find a wrecked cobra around your year and go for that. Swap over the entire front and then have it painted the blue color you have. While your swapping it clean every part of the engine that you can...that would look mad sick.

I need to pull the engine anyhow... i need to clear all that out to cut/ weld frame in... And i'm gonna sand blast the engine bay, then paint it... and clean the motor real good.. also gonna pull the headers and wrap them with that exhaust wrap stuff... lots n lots of work down the road... |
I mean you have to figure if your going to be doing all this work to it might as well make it mad sick in the process....Just make sure to do it all right....don't want it breaking on you down the road.
Edit: If your engine has some high mileage you might as well go and get a bottom end for it.... |

Damn man you really got the ball rolling on this thing. I am impressed! Good luck with the rebuild. I knew you could do it Greg.
