randy is looking at a chassis tonight(owned by teh brother of ej's car owner). randy's wrecked car is a 97 Pauch-Olsen, the chassis in question is a "pinch nose" Olsen, basically a later model with a few updates. if teh frame is in good shape randy can have it for free actually. that is teh good news.
the front suspension is gonna cost some cash to fix. the list of broken/bent stuff is as long as my arm. randy will have to update a few things in teh rear suspension to bolt everything in, but he already has about half teh parts.
gonna need to make hoops and rub rails, the right door is trashed, a bunch of spherical rod ends/radius rods/bolts/small brackets got destroyed as well.
he actually hit hard enough to rip the air cleaner off of the carb.
from 110-0 in 20ft and teh car is teh only one that suffered from it. that is prolly the best part, a hit like that could have easily been much more serious than just parts.
we will likely get hacking at everything tomorrow night. a return this weekend is very unlikely/impossible.
later
