R.i.p. Reply #32 – November 18, 2010, 04:15:54 AM Quote from: Haystack;342058I doubt you bent the frame. Do both your doors open up fine after taking off the fenders? At least your bumper bracket didn't just break off at the weld. It looks similar to what I did, just on the other side of the car. The only thing that isn't sitting right on my car is the bottom of the radiator support. Everything else was just pull off and put back on. After I re-welded the bumper bracket and bent it back in place, and pulled the radiator support bottom out alittle bit (I actually pulled it alittle bit too far, and now I can't bend it back, Just wanted the car on the road.) and swapped the cougar front end on, and good as new. I still have alittle bit of gap between the hood and the header panel, but that was because the cougar front end I swapped on. The guy who had it before me wrecked it and fiberglass the front end to the fenders, so I only had four good bolt holes, and they didn't quite line up from how he glued it back together. I did not bend up top where the fender bolts to either though.Here's a pic of the drivers side rail, supposed to be straight. Quote Selected
