QUOTE (akamiami @ Sep 17 2005, 09:11 PM) I've sent cars to the scrapper without a title. They'll do it, just call around. Could you pm me the name of the place? I'm going to try putting it up for sale for a while, 3/s parts seems to be a whole different ballgame than DSM parts. These guys will buy anything it seems! -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

QUOTE (AWD DSM 1 @ Sep 17 2005, 08:52 PM) It's just going to become a cube, but I know the scrapyard needs a title or junking certificate to take it. if you find the right place, and its a "donation", or really cheap, they don't really care about a title. I know of two yards in Danville that have cubed cars without one and without questions, I find it hard to believe this neck of the woods would be any different. Might try PMing turbohcar? |

Time for another update...
Although not much progress has been made on the vr4, the stealth is now out of my hands. Grandfather-in-law is an old time scrap hauler, I let him take care of things! One car, one title...  I should have taken some pics after I was done with this one... it was truely a masterpiece. There was probably only about 10 bolts left on the car...  With the stealth chassis gone, I was able to clean up the garage to the point I could get to the vr4 to work on it again, look for some major progress to be made in the coming weeks!

Good to hear, Rob. I'm looking forward to seeing Shamou on the streets again.

Motor is out... what a PITA! I will never bitch about working on a DSM again. I've never seen (or not seen) so many blind bolts in my life! Starting to wonder what I got myself into!
 Deconstruction is 95% complete, time to start putting things back together.

Actually, I've been putting more together lately than I've been tearing apart.

Motor and tranny are in, just working on hooking up the wiring harness, turbos, and intercooler piping.

ouch...
 I'm racing the Friday before Vic Day, if that makes you feel better. Of course that's more tuning time, and low 12's!
