Screw the old Vert! I got an ALl-TRAC!!!

I think I lost your number. PM it to me and we can talk. It's going to be a while before I really do anything to it. Budget is super tight these next couple months

 

Dude not selling it

 

Yeah this car is my baby. I couldn't get rid of it.

 

K guys the wife is wanting it fixed or sold and replaced soon. I've found someone to sell me a ST165 rolling frame (with LOTS of extra parts) for $1500. I'm moving into a new house next week and just put all of my money into that. I have started up a gofund me account to try and raise some money to help with the cost of fixing the car. If I do buy this rolling shell I will have my old shell to sell to make up some money as well as lots of parts. If you can help you can donate here http://www.gofundme.com/dhgrag If you are interested in my wrecked shell or any other parts let me know, if I know that I have someone interested in the old shell of my car it will make it easier for me to spend the money on the new shell.

sorry to sound desperate but I am lol I dont want to lose this car after all the work I've put into it.

 

Shaun, what is the "chassis leg" hopefully I didn't miss anything....

 

Update time!

So here is a quick update with the current condition of the car. the right side of the car did have some damage I didn't notice before...the core support was bent in one small part but it is all mostly straightened out.

taken apart and straightened out.





this is how the core is being held together until I my brother in law gets his welder over here



Current condition of the front bumper.











the last picture shows where the bolts that hold the bumper cover onto the bumper tore through the plastic in the wreck...I will be attaching the bumper cover with some self tapping aluminum screws instead of using these holes...kinda ghetto but I can't find another gt-4 bumper...

Turbo/downpipe/manifold removed to check the manifold for cracks. it all looks good from what I can see. Also clocked the turbo to hopefully clean up my intercooler piping.



And new parts!


I would have a radiator pictured here too but they sent me a ST205 radiator not an ST185 radiator...I'm getting a 185 radiator instead of the 165 since it is the same size but doesn't have the turbo water outlet. The 205 motor I have feeds water to the turbo through the water pump not the radiator.

 

Yeah it has been going pretty smooth actually. Unfortunately those silicone hoses will be getting sent back since they are also for the ST205 and don't quite match up...I probably could make them work but I dont want to have them bent and possibley kink when they heat up.

 

Gotcha didn't send then back then.

 

Cool thanks. When are you going to be shipping the corners?
