Now, see, I'd have used a gun, but to each his own I guess :hick:

Sorry to see your bashed 'bird, but it does look mostly cosmetic (bolt on parts), except that rad support...

I bumped a beaver 4 year ago with a Sunfire, his ?&$*ing teeth pierced my oil pan

I got that, but like the other guy I can't see the pics. I don't work, so no server blockages.

This is my home personal comp, I'm the only one that uses it, And control everything that is installed and runs on it (including the OS: 2KPRO).
So there shouldn't be any blockages.

Hope you can get your Beak back together man.

DVP, thanks for the plug.

daddybair7, where in Ohio are you located? We're going to Fort Wayne, IN on Saturday the 27th and could bring some parts that far for you. We've got fenders for $50 each, Turbo Coupe header panels for $50 and Turbo Coupe hoods for $50. Of course we'd have to know pretty quick as we're loading up on Friday. Sorry for the short notice, I didn't see your thread until now. Either way, good luck with your car!

For what it's worth, my son smoked a deer with his TC this spring. It wasn't nearly as bad as yours though. We used some of our inventory and fixed it ourselves. I'm sure you'll be happy when you're done. Again, good luck.

FLST,

Thats a nice looking Turbo Coupe your son has there. I'm a little jealous. Good job on fixing her after the accident. Have any more pictures?
