[dazbuster]

car bought....33,000km's..............one owner.............fell asleep at wheel............scored for $1500 yes $1500 :P AND STILL REGISTERED AND LICENSED

first i thought to buy for parts...then tried to heat/rebend chassis rails.....then got half cut....just in process of joining from firewall/bulkhead forward....(chassis rails are tubes within double box sections....i slotting the tube (male) into open box section (female..) under drivers feet this way it cant be NON square...AND IS NOT CLASSED AS A "CUT AND SHUT"

mate your lucky to have a gf like that. and good luck with the car. also how badly damged is the engine that was in there?

[Guni]

Wow. Not bad. What did he smash into at what speed?

The front looks gone.

Will the chasis be able to maintain the rigidity? If you take a corner to fast, will it break into 2?

jeebus! Those original chassis rails are completely foooked up. Good luck with the build. Honestly though, i would always have doubts in my mind about the crash readiness of such a repaired car.

Also, I'm assuming the airbags where deployed. any luck sourcing a new Sportivo dash?
