Kinda stuck repairing my coupe. Need radiator core support WITH reinforcement panels

[dderek]

didnt notice the reproduction core support id ordered from cjponyparts didnt have the reinforcement panels.

now i gotta search online junkyards to see if i can get whats needed.

maybe even drive around to a couple local ones. see if theyll let me chop up a front end for cheap.


If anybody has any good local junkyards, and think you can score me the needed piece. ill be glad to pay you for your time/effort/shipping. maybe i even have parts you could use. i have tons of spare stuff lying around

any ideas or suggestions?

i dont think youll have a problem finiding one at a wrecker and having them chop it.

good news

been doing alot of searching for online chopshops and junkyards.
ive gotten alot of emails interested in what i need.

im taking a bunch of detailed pictures and going to write up a big nice email. to make sure i get exactly what i want, and not a replacement radiator or something retarded and off the wall

one person quoted me at $220 or so already.

ive got alot of rust showing in my engine bay now, and i know how thin that sheet metal is... so. my repairing spree might go alot farther than expected.

I cant just leave all this exposed rust and live with myself.

now would be a great time to repaint the engine bay/hide wires too. but i kno you have alot on your plate, but its just a thought.

definately thinking about it......

i dont have a cherry picker. but i know a few people that might let me borrow one.
i DO have an engine stand.

but the main problem is. theres hardly enough room in my garage to walk. let alone store a motor, or work on one...
hmm. alot of work to do
