wow your great at wrecking sc's lol jk

the first accident looked horrible man---did u come out of that okay? hope so.

Your second sc(current one) looks great---cant tell it was ever damaged as far as I can see. Hood is a little tweaked but no biggie.

thanks for sharing--and congrats on getting your car running again

I don't remember your first SC, but I do remember the second. All you need is a new hood and you'll be good!

Yeah I have been very lucky with my wrecks. Both of them I walked away uninjured. The first one was completely unrepairable but had I known what I know now I would have kept it for at last a part out. It only had 70,000 on the clock.

The second one was much less to deal with. The right upper rail was crunched but with a little time on the laser aimed frame rack it was fine. Now it is all put back together and I actually drove it around tonight. A few more small tweaks and it will be good as new. I'm just lucky I spent 10 years working in body and paint shops.

Plans for the car now are full led conversion, , coilovers, sways, wheels, and a brand new paint job in the summer. Kustom shop triple black. Blackest of the blacks.
