Unhappy my teal baby is now a parts car

Wrecked my car going around a corner. No one was hurt. I had a pretty bad bump on my head but no concusion. I saved a cat's life. My baby is beat up pretty bad. Severe front end damage. I went into a ditch. The rear of the car is great and no windows were broken. Not much else to say right now. I'm not leaving you guys, I WILL own another SVX.

I'll be undoubtidly pulling the motor and starting a rebuild.

I look forward to seeing some friends tomorrow night.

-Elliot

don't feel the lone ranger

not so long ago I did the same thing. The car was spared. but the braking/compression was enough to make my T belt jump. I know you had your reasons, I'm glad your ok. Cars can be replaced, and wisdom is usually gained

Unhappy Sorry to hear of your misfortune!

There is probably a special place in eternity for animal lovers, and, hopefully, a VERY special Hell for those who are cruel!

How's about the $ for the entire automatic seatbelt system on an "I pull it" basis??

Sorry to here about your misfortune.

I'd be interested in the windshield, the rear wiper motor, and the rear bumper. (I don't know how easy it is to get an old windshield out without breaking it and then have it installed. Can this be done?)

Let me know!

Parts sales / availability

I'm happy to see that I'm allready recieving requests for parts. However, I would like to ask that any inquiries are sent to me in PM form.

I am still in the process of finding a location where I can actually tear the entire car down as the engine and transmission are not for sale. Nearly everything besides those main components will be available for purchase. I will be offering these items to members of the SVXWN first, before I put them on ebay.

Thank you and watch the WTB/WTS portion of the network for available parts.

Too bad, I was going to ask what you wanted for the whole car. I enjoy rebuilding cars that are a challenge.
