The remnants of Sick88Tbird's parts car are ready to go to the crusher. I hate to throw away a good 8.8 rear, so if anybody wants to come get it, let me know. It has 3.08's in it, and I "may" have a set of 3.55's to throw in. I know how much trouble I had finding my Cougar XR-7 8.8 rear, so this could be a good deal for someone. The catch is, you have to take the rest of the car with it! For me to s the car, I need the rear in it to get it on and off the flatbed or trailer. Once I have it loaded, the whole thing is going right to the crusher, I'm not taking the rear out at that point. :toilet:
If anyone else wants to get a good rear for a great price, let me or Sick88Tbird know. Remember, you'll have to come get the car yourself. I'm hoping to be loading the car onto the truck this Sunday, so you have to move fast! By the way, the $50 goes to Sick88Tbird, not me. Car is in Sicklerville, NJ RIGHT off the AC Expressway, and not far from the old Berlin Circle.
wow your done with that car already? whats left of it
Rear. Carpet. Headliner, interior trim panels (not door panels), glass, dash (minus trim panels & gauge cluster)... that's about it. Three trips over the bridge to rip parts out is enough for me. I was thinking of taking all the panels and glass, but I'm out of storage space. My itsy bitsy garage is packed full! It's an adventure just to climb over everything and get to my toolbox! I can't even remember what my workbench looks like. I just want to get the rest of the car out of Don's driveway and off to the wrecker.
Of course, you have PLENTY of room in your garage for the rest of the car, right Bob? :D
UPDATE
Just got confirmation from the junkman. He's picking up the car at 11am Sunday morning. If anybody wants it, you have to get there by Saturday!
Bob...we don't mess around when it comes to stripping cars....lol.
Stay tuned for more "Redneck Garage" installments in the future. :hick:
That's right! We almost made even quicker work of it when we both lit up cigarettes over the leaking gas tank!
:flame:
LOL, Hey if anyone of you guys have the tool to take the windshield out without breaking it and its in good shape let me know. I need a windshield for my cougar
Sorry, I know I don't have windshield tools.
It's ashame because that windshield is perfect...I don't have the tools either.
pulling the windshield in these cars is a major pain in the a$$ if it hasnt been done already... and unfortunatly bob, i tossed the one i saved a few cars ago lol... i woulda just let you have it.
and don, i myself can strip a car down to the chassis in less then a day lol, probably with my eyes closed now. think i've done 6 ? lol:hick:
Yeah Nate, all the guys on the other site are crying about how seeing that video made them feel sick...lol...not me, the car was destined for the sper one way or another...I just figured I'd keep the decent parts that are worth being rebuilt...lol.
what color was the interior?
Damm Nate why you have to rub it in LOL
One of these days I need to head over and watch, lol. That was great. I just need to stay FAR away from those pine trees across the street. They were killing me last time ;)
Porno red with a PERFECT headliner...lol.
Yeah John, I remember...you and those pine trees were definitely not the best of friends.
Joe- thanks for telling me the rollback driver was going to be 3hrs earlier than expected! lol...he got here around 8am this morning and I figured I had all the time in the world so I stayed out till like 2 last night...whoops. I'm just breakin' your stones man, I'm just so freaking glad it's gone and I don't have to look at it anymore....plus I still have some tasty Coor's Light for later today...lol.
by the way...
THE REAR IS GONE!
D'oh!!! I talked to him yesterday and he told me he would be there at 11am at the earliest!!! Yeesh! Sorry about that.
Well, at least it's out of the driveway!
I'll have to head out your way after I get finished with the interior, and then we can go get some more Coors Light!!!

Yay! Coors! Ummm...by the way...do you want the keys for that column? lol...just noticed them sitting on my TV last night.
Yeah... they would probably help! :slap:
Sent you a PM about the yards. Let me know, either I'll come over for a run and get the keys then, or I'll see if my buddy in Berlin can pick them up.
