Not much of an update, I need to decide if I want to weld up the "new" subframe, or if I want to try to clean up the original one and see how bad it is. I'll say it again, DON'T BUY PARTS IN THE DARK! I don't care how much you think you can trust the person...
This is where the control arm is supposed to be mounted on the "new subframe
All 4 inner areas have some sort of cut off wheel marks. I know I can weld it, grind it, and be all good, I'm just getting aggravating over buying supposedly good parts and finding crap like this.
Anyways, I did finally decide to put the front end of the parts car to good use.
I'll be building a box around it, filling with brick chip and then a flower box where the engine is supposed to be. I need to figure out a way to make the headlights, corners, and fog lights illuminate. My neighbor thinks it's awesome, when shall see what the powers that be have to say about it though haha.
And last but not least, I kind of went on a parts ordering binge. That being said, the wife was starting to get a little pissy about the piles of box's around the house. So today, I was made to "make them disappear!". So seeing as they are all for the CQ, they went in the hatch for now...
Oh, and this is the condensed version! With more on the way! Hopefully the weather cooperates soon, and I can finish getting the front end back together on this. It's been too cold and wet outside to have the garage door open.
