here are a few more pics of my car. its fixable. one of the best body men around here said he can fix it but hasnt gave me a price yet.

and before it even starts people dont say ANYTHING about whos fault or anything relevent to that. just showing everyone why i think its fixable. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ME LOCK THIS ONE TOO. josh's car is done i dont think its fixable but we havent gotten to deep into his yet. but my car will crank up and move under its own power. just cant run it long. a minute or two tops.

Most depressing thread ever.

If I was in your spot, I'd find a 2.3 notch and transfer everything over. But if you can save it for less $$$ and time, I say go for it.

That really sucks man but think of it as a new beginning. You shouldn't have much trouble finding a 4 banger car that's really clean for decently cheap, and the up-side to that is you know the body and chassis are gonna be straight because you can beat a stock 2.3 all day and not tweak a thing. Just take your time and do it right and you'll come out ahead in the end.


And, more important than anything, keep your chin up. Nobody got hurt and things could always be worse.

It's sort of like a burning down the forest to grow it back stronger kind of thing.


Hell maybe you can score yourself a nice 4 eye



Actually i was on Auto Trader the other night looking at fox's and i found some amazingly clean 4 eye/4 bangers....i was honestly temped to pick one up but i don't know what i'd do with a 3rd toy.

Sounds good. Seeing all the hard work and time you had invested get destroyed at the hands of some assbag really bothered us. Get all your stuff in line and let me know. We can make arrangements that work for you. I got other misc. stuff you can have if needed. We would like to see somebody get some use out of that car, we needed it like a hole in the head!!
