Bummer man. I can relate.

Snow, I see your point, but it's not economically feasible for me to do a body swap. So I'll wheel it beat. But I gotta get a cage first.

Anyhow, good luck with it Bill.


I understand about the time/$$ involved with body swaps, but if the A-pillars are damaged it really becomes more of a safety issue than ca cosmetic one. The integrity of the oem safety cage is gone once you crush an A-pillar. Your only real options then are a cab swap, or an internal/external cage.

If the dents are just cosmetics, some cheap body tools, light bondo, and some paint can do a lot for the appearance of your beater. It will also give you a way of learning/harnessing your body skills, so if you ever have to fix a dent on your daily you can save yourself some $$.


More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.
