I'd take the racing pedals, carbon fiber shifter wrap, aftermarket fog lights, and the dual fart cans on the back.

I'll definitely take a look when I go again! I'll keep you posted. I was going to go this past weekend but had some other stuff pop up so unfortunately I wasn't able to

Haha no I wish I could buy the whole car. It'd save me from having to work at awkward angles in the scrapyard praying that the car doesn't tip over and crush me!

Why haven't you? Space? Too "big" of an investment?


It's a nice thought, but who wants a 3,500 lb junk car propped up on stands in their yard? Well, maybe a redneck...

Definitely don't have the extra space in my driveway for a dead car lol. Aside from extra parts, the only other reason why I'd like to have that car would be for the learning experience. Better to do it on a donor car just in case I break something than on my actual car lol

I hear you on that!

Few days before the trans blew...



After a few months of stripping it...





No hesitation pulling this one apart!




It was fun, and I am still searching for a new part out vehicle.
