Default Tribute to MIGS -- The 95 GSR Saga

A time comes when you have to pick up and move on to better things in life. Mike decided to part out the car and due to a recent accident my buddy Garret had, he decided to buy the shell. Unfortunately both cars were complete, had to be completely torn down and have everything swapped in 1 day due to work issues at the shop. I just wanted to share the pics of the tear down and rebuild as well as some previous pics of the car. Thanks for viewing.

to Migs and a badass racecar that won't be forgotten. Hopefully the future will bring some good things for it

Some older pics







Day of the swap.

The donor car



The donee




All of our cars in the lot






Onto the work. Dirty as ****, didn't get many pics cause I was workin like a ****



Crazy *******


Towin off the shell



Didn't get any pics workin on the gsr till after it was all torn apart and reassembled Motor in and running




Ready to drive home




Thanks to everybody that helped out; Garrett, Migs, Chase, Colin, AJ, Mauney, and all the other NTB guys

Sorry guys, I'll clarify things a bit. My coworker/friend Garrett totalled his Integra LS (the green car). Mike aka Migs was already parting out his race car (the JDM Front black teg). However, both cars were complete and intact when he brought them to me on Friday. Everything on Migs car (5-lug, SSR's, Teins, Motor/Trans, Interior, etc) had to be removed because it was for sale or already sold. We completely tore both cars down to a bare shell, and then put everything into Migs black gsr from the green car. My friend Garrett only bought the shell from Mike. I hope that clears it up. Sorry for the confusion guys
