OK , I got it into the shop, and began stripping it down. Man this car is dirty, making a mess in my shop, lol, I thought I cleaned the front out pretty good the other day LOL!
Right full of dirt, leaves, sticks, ants, lizards, and who knows what other critters!
I thought the radiator was broken at the bottom, and when I got the cap off I didn't see any but some, fluid spilled on removal. So even though the aluminum part of the rad frame
was broken at the bottom the vanes were apparently not leaking. The fluid looked very good so thats a good sign.
It definitely took an impact of some sort but not apparently a serious one as so far the only damaged parts, appear to be the lower radiator frame, ( excuse my lack of
knowledge on nomenclature on the parts) , the rubber splash piece and metal piece that that hold it to the bottom of the radiator frame.
The radiator bent but not leaking, shroud and fan missing, the a/c radiator also bent, not known if leaking or not but probably R=22 and an upgrade would probably be a good idea. Will need side lights, turn signal lights. Possibly needs front fenders and fascia ( not determined yet )
Still need to clean more dirt and leaves, but so far the Space Frame seems in really good shape, some but not much rust. A couple pics!
