Pic for size comparison
I don't think the grom would do much lol. And plus I just put new parts on it on Friday. Have to keep them looking nice for at least another week until I crash it again

Went insane looking at that white fiberglass bumper bullshit.
Found my room mates cut off wheel.....
Dust everywhere
Gone forever
Wiring & fan were next
Car was involved in a skirmish at one point
Rotted core support
Fronts basically off now.
Next up is grind the old core support off.
Then make something to hold the radiator. Plans are a brewing

I have an aftermarket core support that you can buy cheap if you want all of the nifty mounting points and other odds and ends of sheetmetal off of it.

Text you in a bit

Radiator is out. Got home from riding later last night so I couldn't do much grinding (neighbors) but today the core support will come off

This took like 30 minutes. Everyone should do it.

Bought my stand off craigslist for $50
Good deal
I'll search around for a bit, Craigslist in this are isn't the most lively.
May just end up buying one from harbor freight. Granted I may only use it once or twice, but having one is nice.
Plus it's like a guaranteed six pack of "insert beer here" for when someone wants to borrow it.

The s50 is currently on the stand when the m50 comes out I'm swapping the e34 pan and other stuff off of it. Then dress the s50, put m50 on tires, then put s50 in. M50 going to a buddy who is gonna give me driveshaft/clutch and some help over a weekend
At least that's the plan
