Well, this weekend sucked for sure. :evil: :evil:
I was on my way to my friends bachelor party, and I was following another friend down there. Traffic suddenly stopped and I had no time to react, tried to swerve up onto the curb and got about half way there, tires locked and BOOM- good bye front end of supra.
Took out the bumper, pass. fender, grille, pass. headlight and assembly, pass fog light and hood. Worse yet, put part of something through the radiator and pushed the radiator and the metal bar it bolts to into my p/s pump, warping the pulley and killing the bearing. Bent up my fan, destroyed the shroud, and bent the inner fender and frame (unibody) where the headlight bolts on. Actually, pushed the whole pass headlight assembly and radiator about a foot or so back. Not a pretty sight, let me tell you. Fortunately for me, the front end of my 83 parts car was in relatively good shape. I now have a white 82P with blue doors, blue hood, blue front bumper, blue L-type fenders, and one white, one blue headlight. Had to do lots of hammering and welding, welding and hammering, aligning, straightning, weld some more, bang some more, etc... Monster PITA! So to everyone who Im looking up parts for/owe money to/etc, Im NOT forgetting, just been a bit preoccupied.
