QUOTE (bloodMoney @ Sep 2, 2015 - 9:57 AM)  GS is big enough for me Jordan.  I'm a big guy, but not LS big. But you'll need room for the dog and all the kids. Cause you know, kids is what you married people do especially once you have a car payment or some kind of debt.  Which is why I'll never buy a new car!

Made some progress today...
   Hopefully, I can get it stripped all the way down tomorrow and start marking the spot welds for cutting out the core support. Daniel: It looks like I'm going to need to replace the full core support. Depending on how hard it is to cut out the damaged one, I may want to just buy a new core support instead of having to cut out two of them....

I can't say I know from experience but I've never heard anything good about drilling spot welds. Does a new core support come with provisions to fit a 2GR behind it? -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

Devin: I picked this car up from Daniel in the hopes that I can piece the two wrecks together to make a good car.
The silver one, Abby, is long gone...    -------------------- ~bloodMoney

Now I understand. I thought Abby (R.I.P.) was long gone but the lighting for the pic was horrible & this cold medicine is kicking in, lol.
I lied. Lighting is ok just looked at pics again. This post has been edited by navseal345: Dec 22, 2015 - 10:50 PM |

I think that's what his plan is. Drivetrain from black vert goes into fixed white vert.

Yup. The white one has no rust. I'll just swap over the front end and engine set, and call it a day.
We'll see though. It depends on how motivated I am. -------------------- ~bloodMoney

I'm hoping that I can have this one done in the next few weeks, so I don't see why it shouldn't be at a spring meet.
