Monte fix up project
 
A few weeks ago I got the car back on 4 wheels again. Now its getting ready to go to the frame shop.

I have been collecting parts to get it drivable again.

Taillight filler panel cost $5 at the junkyard. New lens cost $140. It's only the LENS! I have to go back to the junkyard to get the backhalf of it. Mine got damaged and can't be used.

I'm picking this used bumper up Saturday in NH. I'm getting it for $100. They go for $300/400 used!

I also picked up a trunk hinge that got bent in the accident. That was pretty cheap. Only $10.

Yesterday I pulled off the rear bumper to get it ready to go to the frame shop tomorrow. You can see from the pic how twisted the frame got.

I also have a used inner support going in that is for the 87 bumper that I bought a few years ago.

The parts are only getting primer in the meantime so I can still drive the car. The paint/bodywork is a future project till I can figure out what the next color will be.
