I've been helping a friend of mine take apart one of his proteges.



This was the point in time where his mood changed and we stopped cutting stuff.

he wants the roof for his other protege



not that the other one is damaged, its just a sans-sunroof model. so he wants a sunroof for it





today we cut the front clip off







the idea for this parts car is to cut it up in tiny pieces, and slowly throw it in the scrap bin at work. take one piece per day.
