Just about done with my third totalled SHO rescue.
I get these at the boneyard auction, unfortuantely when there's no sale on these, they go to scrap. It's sad when I don't have any money and see on on the block, then see the auction report the next day and see them unsold, and know they met their untimely end.
Anyway, Here's save #3. It was hit from the side taking everything forward of the core support off with it, and swinging the nose about 2".
This one was a 93 ATX with 80K miles. Once i reset the fuel cutoof, it started right up and I was abel to driv eit onto out trailer, even though most of the stuff from the nose was dragging. Once the frame and core support was straightened, I replaced with new: radiator and a/c hard lines, and all the bolbs and side marker lights. Used a used condensor, PS radiator, and everythign else, from parts cars. White body parts are from a 93 MTX I just scrapped after sstripping.
runs great, 80K miles, full leather and premium JBL with sub, runs smooth as silk. Total cost of car and parts about 900 plus bout 32 hours labor.
here it is with all the broken crap taken off and straightened
