I thought maybe you were pulling a fast one and popped it w/ a deuce-deuce, that is until i saw the HUGE gash in the housing. Jesus, that must have made an awful sound.

The guy I bought the car from said that He pulled into a bank and was sitting there and it just started making lots of smoke. So he turned it off, had it towed home, and put it up for sale. He did not have a clue about it. Luckily for me I only paid him $140 for the car.



Here are some more pictures just for the fun of it.

He had also rear ended someone - not to bad though. I was looking for a project car that I could fix for pretty cheap, and have a lot of fun with. Now I have to spend more then I wanted to. Or maybe I can find another cheap one with an OK engine.

You can never bitch about a sev-i for $140. The front end damage isnt that bad at all. With the loot you saved on the car, new engine parts should be on the way https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Good luck on the project.
