well I guess it depends what you have for tools.
for instance it’s a very managable job if you happen to have a
Sevenne

if not ? well “there is more than one way to skin a cat” they say :pcorn:
with many different systems , mines a WEDGE CLAMP SYSTEM

after making some pulls :pcorn: put in some new pieces (for which you’ll need a mig welder) B)
im actually working on something similar. i started off by pulling it as if i were going to save it which means making the pulls as accurate as possible. i bought a used a quarter which makes these totals a lot cheaper and sometimes easier to repair. but i began by removing the damaged quarter first then the donor. in your case i suspect the right frame rail needs sectioning, and the rear frame sub assembly needs replacement. thats an example of a car id repair for a customer but not one that i would buy. if i was going to buy a car with heavy damage it has to be a year or 2 old the most to make it worth it.
That one is easy. no tools required! I just let it sit for however long
and collect $50/day storage, plus $50 admin fee and towing charges.[b]Han wrote:[/b]
