Well I will be picking it up today from the shop that straightened the frame out so I can start on finishing the rest myself.

So far 500 to have the car striaghtened out
Then what ever Darren will charge for the repaint on the rear bumper the sail panel and the lower valance.

Then around 600 for new wheels and another 500-600 for new tires if I go with 17x10 and 17x9.

Or at least the 600 for the new(MACH) rims I had already bought for the 85.

This doesnt include anything I havent found yet. I have to get it up in the air and really check the suspension and exhaust but from what the body shop tells me the suspension is OK.

Ill post up a couple pics of it after I get it home this evening.

OH and this is all courtesy of an ungrateful disrespectful and now disowned 21yr old Son.

Well.... he did come from your loins !!!! lol

Bet you miss the car already huh Donger??

True Jody, But I thought I had taught him to respect other peoples property and be man enuf to own up to your mistakes.
Guess I was wrong on both counts.

[96greengt]

Yeah well, I guess he thought the only way to get rid of temptation was to just give in to it !!!

[Macs01GT]

Real sorry to here of the circumstances of it being damaged. Glad you're getting it back up.

BTW, there's nothing nicer than a white MACH.

I cant afford those Dan...

I have 5 NIB factory MACH rims I was planning on for the 85 but Im thinking of selling 4 haveing the one that is fixable fixed and buying 17x9 and 17x10.5's of these in black (95 Cobra R's).

[BigJnSA]

that would look hawt. (cept for the centercaps)

[machgsxr]

Why not go with some cobra side skirts?

Can't wait to start repainting my car next year to get the look I want with it.

[2k4mk1]

Naw no need to replace my side skirts at the moment.

And J I would keep the running pony/tribar ctr caps I have now

[96greengt]

You could always be like Jeff and drive forever without the center caps!!!

[YZF Voltage]

if you ever need lady fingers to get er done lmk. sucks to see the mach like that.

but on a good note, those rims are gonna look hawt if you decide to go with them. have you thought about black saleens?

[BigJnSA]

ohhh, even better. black or black chrome.... i doubt he would do that tho, as saleens HAVE to be 18s to look right. the cobra r's are 17s...

[2k4mk1]

Yeah no want 18in rims.
They kill the performance
I need to get the exh leak fixed and 1 rim repired and replace the broken one reinstall the stuff after paint and she will be on the road again.
The windshield and wheels will have to wait awhile Im sorta cash poor after all this

[2k4mk1]

Once I removed the rear bumpper cover I discovered the support tube is colapsed. So I need to repair it as well I post up a couple pics later.
