Here are some pics of the car.

Teardown to begin tomorrow, radiator support crushed, very clean interior/overall car. 80K original miles, good starter car for my 16 year old daughter....she drives a stick very well and prefers it so this worked out well.

Still on vacation but thought I would check in.

The core support will be replaced after I do a rough pull to get the aprons straight. Once that's done everything else comes together pretty quickly. It looks worse than it is. The only bummer is that I have used parts from a white car (I will need to keep a bottle of touch up close)…not ideal but they will work fine for my daughter. She is just really happy to be getting a ride.


Returning to the states late today and hope to get back on the car this weekend.
