Back story:
Got the car for FREE. I worked on 1399 when a guy 10 minutes away seen my vr4 and needed his worked on. I traded work done to his car (i know own 1399) for 1388.
I was going to use it as a parts car, scrap it and be done with it. But i own 1389.... and now this is 1388. So i couldnt easily just dispose of it.
1994: Car was hit hard in the passenger front corner. To this day even after being nearly totaled and fixed the frame is still bent a little, and bondo is coming off on some spots
1999; Timing was done at a dealer and the 6 bolt walked. Huge whole in the back of the motor. Car was put in a garage from 1999 to 2005, Last guy bought it, stored in his garage from 2005-the day i bought it.
REASON WHY I WONT SELL IT WHOLE; Because its been asked 1000 times. I own the car, i know its been in an accident and i wont risk someone elses life for money.
Pics of the i went to look at it:
Plan of action
Cut off front the firewall forward
Cut out firewall and weld a sheet metal panel in
Cut out floor and weld in sheet metal panels
Cut out trunk floor and make it bigger to hold tools and what not
Make sunroof and door windows still work
Want to make this a trailer to:
haul parts / tires to races and large car meets for 1389
Make a camper...aka put a blow up mattress in, for the shootout and other events.
