Got a call yesterday that my old friend had got his new car. Some of you may remember a while back I posted some pics with his alero and mine. None the less, $200 bucks later I have beater/parts car before the real one but its nice to have instead of the granny car any day. Mostly everything was already done on it from back in the day, he's beat the crap out of the car unfortunately and the LIMG still hasnt been taken care of. He also rear ended a jeep so the front end is pretty trashed, I have to figure out something to mount the headlights, they are just sitting in there.
Also got some parts from my original alero back, the strut bars, front drivers fender, part of the intake, and some random stuff were from it. The rear disk brakes and mods will be transferred to the new new alero when I get it and I'll part out what anyone wants on here. Once I'm done with it my step brother plans buy it off me and use it for his dune buggie project :lol:
Anyone want the struts, came with it? they are brand new $50 for both +ship

The front end doesn't look too bad... why don't you just fix this one up? Could be a fun project...

Frame is bent. If it were a coupe and I had a bit more time I might. I mostly want a nicer a platform to start my mods on.

is that engine stock besides the cai?
Papa Rad17

Yep. All stock. Last night after a drive home being unable to see I spent a few hours on the headlights, using the stirofoam from under the bumper and a crap ton of zip ties, the headlights are semi properly aimed down the road and now solid in place, for now away.

I got it home from the nursing home. pored a few bottles of different crap in the radiator to see if I could save it. Well, she ran great for half the day, heat was working and all. Then she started sputtering, knocking, overheating worse. I got it home and parked it. service engine soon light is flashing, doesnt have enough power to hardly move itself, and smoke it billowing out the exhaust... sure was worth getting it licensed and all :cry:
