Title: My friend, his brother and I have done a thing(remember the car accident?)
Post by: Eurobeat on May 28, 2016, 17:45
[hide=what this topic is about]Last year on the 1st of August I was in a car wreck that cost me a finger and my friend a car. Here's the topic > http://www.forum.convoytrucking.net/index.php?topic=52370.0
[/hide]

A few weeks after the accident we decided we were going to fix it with whatever we could find, this is the result :)



[hide=what we had to do]Rebuild front suspension
replace rear differential and driveline and adjust suspension accordingly
replace radiator
replace waterpump
replace oil sump
replace/rebuild front chassis
steal 2 wheels off a Toyota Hilux (to fit the rear axle)
replace fuel tank
weld struts to the bottom of the car - the roof is off which decreases rigidity, turns it into a bendy bus basically
remove rear seats to fit new fuel tank
replace cambelt[/hide]

Looks neat, are you using parts from junkyard?  Or buying them from somewhere?

square tubing from an old safety gate for the front and the rest is just random shit found lying around, nothing bought extra or from a junkyard (everything is either from my house or his house)

Nice work Fish but if you're rebuilding the car from your own houses don't forget to put the beer fridge in at some point lol
