dont think of it as Murder think of it as organ Donar.

the car had been wreaked. The whole front end was ruined.

Engine went to my car.
Traded the Trans for an SA Trans.
Sold the rear to a buddy.
Sold the Tank.
the dash is almost perfect and black.
and the Metal is going to Repair an SE.

So it had a good Death.



Ray,

We drilled a hole in the floor and then used the sawsall for all of it. Took about 2 hours to pull the interior and make the Cut, another 1/2 cleaning up the sharp edges so I can ship it.
