yep pulled her out of her hole today,,bought her about 3 years ago 1.200 was advertised as a parts car....i put a windsheild in her and found two sets of rear windows. was a nice car at one time, then she was in as fire not on fire just close enough to hurt her,melted all plastic lens,top of seats..broke all windows, melted lead out of seams..so i think its her turn to get fixed..............
That hot? I hope the body isnt all warped to hell is it? I would rather see a car rescued than parted out as 'too hard', good work Doc.
funny thing no metal warp..i have all the parts ..i started to work on it then ,moved to another car, now im back on it ...thanks
From the pictures it doesn't look like it got hot enough to anneal the sheet metal. I've seen cars exposed to fire that got so soft and warped that they were not repairable. Looks like a solid project. Good luck, The FOGGER
looks a lot better now. did you get that Porsche in the background from the San Francisco Bay Area? sold a 1967 in that color a few years back, then found out the mag wheels that were on it were worth more than I sold it for.
Fires are strange sometimes, we had a house fire that completely melted a home phone, and a tissue box right next to it wasn't even black. Nice car.
no the Porsche came out of Torrance it was t boned hard on the pass side, and yea the rims were worth a lot and the t bone missed the rims..i used the motor/trans, rims, on another car.. was going to junk the rest then I thought yard art, cut it in half about 20 yrs ago
