Teardown

Ok, so i made it to the junkyard this past Saturday morning, and after about 4hrs, i picked up some of the parts i needed. I found a hood, radiator support, pass headlight, all 3 grill pieces, a fan shroud, and an uncracked intake boot. Over the past 2-3 weeks i began tearing down the car, and i was able to remove all of the damaged parts. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get pictures of the damage before i began workin on the car other than the ones I posted earlier. I was able to drill out the spot welds in the upper radiator support and remove it, which gave me access to the other damaged areas. The fender apron was pushed back quite a bit. With some patience and about 6-8 hrs of work i was able to put everything back to its original shape. Here you see the new Radiator support in place ready to be welded on.
