I think you all know where this is headed. I'm excited!
Kid put it into a curb last week in the snow and damaged the rear suspension. No big deal! |  |  | | 03-11-2015, 08:07 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2011 Location: Westminster,Maryland Posts: 159 |
Cool, how badly is it damaged? | | | | | 03-11-2015, 09:37 PM | #3 | | Junior Member Join Date: Jun 2012 Location: NC Posts: 22 |
Hah, barely damaged. Needs a control arm and an axle, all of which my friends and I pretty much have lying around.
I'm actually going to just fix it for now and drive it a little while I prepare to yank the motor and freshen it up. | | | | | 03-11-2015, 10:42 PM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2013 Location: Sheboygan,Wi Posts: 135 |

It's white, just like my Ti. Same year and everything. Pretty much the perfect donor car. | | | | | 03-12-2015, 03:47 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2012 Location: Sacramento, CA Posts: 2,451 |

nah, it's got 250K+ miles and the rear fenders are starting to rust out. Resale on it won't be too awesome and I had a hard enough time finding the "perfect donor" already. But, I'll totally drive it like it is for a while. | | | | |
