cut a roof off a car at the junkyard. if he got a new car he'd either have to build a new cage or cut the roof off the other car to put it in.

iv seen this neon a few times on the forum, sucks to hear about the hood doing that but Im sure you can fix her back up and get some solid times.

Your hood pins actually broke? I think I see the studs still in the upper part of the radiator support. So did the actual safety push pins break?
