maybe in the sand, the weak area is acceptable? i really

this is so outside of the box that it is foolish. I, too, am curious as to what the ultimate fate of this dune buggy has been.

Wow, my Acura brethren are looking at this too. Like I said before (last year), good way to make use of a car that was scrap metal. I should have done that when my dad totalled the SC400 I gave him. It did not look half that bad. But once the rear is crinkled so far, it is beyond economical repair. I was told about 17k to fix it..

OLT knows, as he is the one who was blessed with it.

I don't care how useable that car really is, that's the coolest idea I've seen in awhile.
