Reconstruction!!!

The ranger has been re-intarnated! :P It has come back even more yeehaw than before.
I didn't take many pics of the metalwork before I straightened it all out, but I do have this shot of the upper radiator support. Name:  wreck4.jpg

I wrapped a big chain around it, and then attached the other end to the grille guard on my friends K20. He picked up the slack in the chain, then just took his foot off the brake and it just pulled it right back like it was tin foil.

Here it is with no grille or bumper, and some horns from a Volvo installed to replace the Cadillac horn that got crushed in the wreck.

More pics tomorrow when its day light. I haven't put in the new radiator yet, I want to relocate the thermostat since I have easy access to it with no fan in the way, but tomorrow it will be done. And once again that all too familiar cloud of blue smoke will fill the front yard and **** off my neighbor!
