The front of my 97 Coupe was crinkled and crooked from a previous crash. I decided to address the issue in a little bit different way than average




Still gotta paint everything to prevent corrosion. Oh ya, the bodylines are perfect...look at my avitar, youll notice a huge gap between the hood and the bumper. The gap is nonexistent now. I dropped around 30 pounds with this setup, but the main reason why I did this was the Bodylines. Anyone have any comments???

 

those pics are hard to see, i paln on doing it too this spring with my hatch that has a totalled front end. how did you do it to keep it all so straight?

 

From what I can see it looks really nice. (pics are real dark though) What did you do for a core support?

 

Sorry bout the pics, i have a $20 digi camera. The sheetmetal was straight, so I did everything with the fenders on the car(except hacking the front end off). I bolted the bumper to the fenders, and basically raised the bumper up to where i wanted it, and started piecing everything together...lotsa work and thinkin into this project.

 

core support? I mimicked the stock supports, members, etc.

 

your ******* hardcore

 

thanx for the good response...anybody else have anything similar to this? Even if its a full drag car???

 

yeah not too bad, need some better pics..

 

Im workin on the pics...

Ok, put the polaroid camera down and step into this century.

 

That's a better than average way to fix a front end collision...
I like the INTERCOOLER

Is it going to use stock suspension mounts?

 

Never mind I can see them now...

 

ok, so now when you wreck, you are sure to total your car.

 

Dope as hell! Get a better digi camera.

 

...youll never guess where it came from either...it was diesel and had a RAM ornament on the hood.

 

 

salvage title anyway...

 

u chopped the i/c in half and made new end tanks? i was planning on doing that actually.... but no turbo for me now....

 

you are hard core.

 

awesome setup. half chassis is cool.

 

Is that intercooler even practical? It looks like it weighs a ton and those bends are incredibly tight, isn't that going to hurt your cooling?

 

I wouldnt do it.....but ur not me.,......


I do not thnk it is practical or even worth while......if u go to the track now what class are u going to race in? U got a chance with Cris Rado?
