Im up late, and bored, chasing parts for my next project , so I'll share some pics with you guys.
Poor guy , let his insurance lapse, then stuffed it into some other smaller car at a low speed. He is loosing his license , registration, has to pay the damages to the other vehicle, and is out this car. 2007 WRX . 76000 miles. took a decent hit to the right front corner, damaged the r fender, bumper cover, rad, condenser , core support, filler etc. Both rails moved pretty good, and the right rail went into the timing cover, broke the plastic gear, derailed the belt, and I am about 90 % sure it bent a valve or two.
I got it on the cheap, and it will not have a salvage title,so I stand to make a nice buck. Ill probably drive it for a little while, but it will basically be a flip.
I don't really do body work, but I am 100% sure I can do a near perfect repair on this one my self. I'll take it , and have the frame horns straightened by a pro, but I'll tear into the rest myself.
My plan is to replace the broken sprocket, hang a belt on it, and see if it runs. If I'm lucky, and it does, then this will be a home run. If not, off with its head for a few new valves, and I'll still be o.k
