Dirttrack510 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Tail panel looks good. It sucks that you will have limited time to work on it now. :( Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 limited time to work on it now results in better parts for when time to work on it is more plentiful Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Picked up this grill the other day, nothing special, but its in pretty good shape, polish it and paint the centers it should look pretty good! and for 75$ it was a fair price Quote Link to comment

Z chopper Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 actually Izzo I have a ferry between me and the mainland that negates any savings from driving it down it would cost about $60 just to get to the border Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 haven't posted for quite sometime, but don't worry work on it hasn't stopped! I just spent 1200$ on parts... holy smokes that stuff adds up fast, I have a new headliner, new door/window/trunk seals, new front turn signals, marker lights, bushings, and wheels in the mail. (although some are coming from japan and probably wont be here until the middle of next month) If any of you guys come across a reasonably priced rear tail light set up, complete with bucket and trim let me know. also on the hunt for a front bumper, the front hood trim, and the side trim that goes on the front fenders and a heater, (my fan broke a couple weeks before the crash).

Tristin Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 What kind of taillights? Ive got a couple different sets here in varying condition. Glad to see youre still kicking around the project Casey. Making it down to Bluelake in this thing? Quote Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 yo dawg looking for a right front passenger side frame rail section .... does the old bagged and boosted still have that frame rail in tact and salvageable... Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted May 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 yo dawg looking for a right front passenger side frame rail section .... does the old bagged and boosted still have that frame rail in tact and salvageable... ill go take a look at it, I know the drivers side is fucked, but the passenger might be salvageable, the whole front end was shifted over to the drivers side, but I think the frame rail could be saved, ill go take a look. What kind of taillights? Ive got a couple different sets here in varying condition. Glad to see youre still kicking around the project Casey. Making it down to Bluelake in this thing? Just some basic old 510 ones would do just fine, or whatever you might have laying around, preferably uncracked lenses, actually my lenses might be okay, and the trim can be whatever condition (so long as its straight), ill probally have them powdercoated, mainly need the inside buckets and outer trim, the buckets are all broken and the trim messed up from the very first accident. Let me know if you have any!!! Whens Blue lake?? Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 I've got some decent parts I'm pretty sure. Ill shoot you some pictures next time I'm in my storage unit. Quote Link to comment
