Well yesterday Me and anthony (JDMjunkie) Went to southgate to checkout a turbo civ, we saw some of you guys who where up there, well 20 min later we met the guard rail off of union onto the 400, and yeah the car is fucked, so I thought I post some pics of the teardown. P.S he needs a shell for the H22. Enjoy

Can We fix it… Probably not.

you might be able to cut that same section off of a junkyard car and weld it onto yours. if thats the case talk to 4x4jimmy about possibly doing this. that or find a good shell for all your parts.

it’s not worth that much work to fix a car that you can go off and buy for $1000.

buy a clean shell (which it looks like your already doing) and go from there with the h22.

sucks to hear tho man. nice seats tho :tup:
