89 max 210,000

Got in a accident lil while ago. But shes coming back . Will be getting a paint job soon. lil by lil.

 

looks good.. keep it up man

 

Good job. That's dedication right there

 

Good deal!

 

Thanx ppl. Just keeping busy. Plus this max thing is addicting.

 

looks good. I still gotta fix my front end. I need to have mine pulled.

 

what did it look like?

 

Well it was once all silver. Last year i ran into a cab. Pushed in the front drivers side.Got a hood, fender,bumper, corner light and headlight. did it all myself. Then got rear ended and needed a rear bumper which i brought and put on. Hood, fender, bumper,headlight,sidelight and rear bumper.$325 and i installed it. I think i did pretty good.

 

nice job man, any before pics? i can relate..

october, 2004 87k miles:





then some lady darts accross traffic without looking (march, 05):

 

i recieved $300 more than i bought the car for (with salvage deducted), went el cheapo fix, bent core support, hood and fender back, bought headlight, corner lights off ebay ~$50 total, bought black bumper $125

jan, 2005 108k miles (looks worse in person)


it's a free car with low miles and drives great but looks like junk. i'm probably going to fix and start driving my black auto soon til the tranny goes then throw in the 5 speed, and maybe the motor while i'm at it. who knows?

 

Wifey told me to take pics but me like an *** didnt. Same damage you have Hectic. But my corner was pushed in.Used some rope and wifeys car to pull it back out and a lil hammering here and there. By the way anybody noticed i changed the emblem on my grill.

 

That looks real nice. Good work.

 

When are you gonna paint it

 

wow, i was assuming you replaced your core support instead of pulling and bending. it looks good man, everything looks square. bending that sucker back in shape can be tricky.

 

Hey man, I can relate too. I am in the process of fixing my 91. I bought it after it was in a front end collision that was pretty bad but its starting to get a second life. Keep it up.

As for painting im thinking early spring .Wanna get some estimates.As for straighting it out. It was rough the part that holds the headlight frame was no joke. Need patience.

 

Hang in there dude, it will be worth it!

 

I was wondering what color to go with. It was originally silver mist i think its called. I have a black leather interior.So im thinking back to silver mist or black.

 

Well unless you want to go through the trouble of painting your door and trunk jambs plus the bottom of the hood and trunk and the engine bay I would stick with the silver. If you are going to have someone else paint it then look to pay a lot for a color change. Its a lot of trouble so unless you want to go really custom or can do it yourself the I would stick with silver...maybe a different shade of silver if you dont like the factory silver.

 

True. I agree AWSM66. Guy wanted extra $50 per door jambs.Not counting trunk and etc. Silver Mist is starting to look good.

 

hey im in st pete not to far form you when i bust out my 90 se to finish it up you should come by and help out.....maybe rummage threw my spare parts and see what you need.

 

good luck with ur repairs

 

Hey 89BADMAXSE I WISH IT WAS NASSAU FLORIDA. ITS NASSAU NEW YORK.

AND I WANNA THANK EVERYBODY FOR THERE COMMENTS.

 

You could send me all your spare parts...

 

Well considering I sent 4 filters and it cost me $8.50 to ship them to you, you are getting them almost free.

 

Hey i know a good deal when i see one...

Maybe when the tax return gets here i will buy more from you...





Thanks for teh filters..

 

and then you can bring them up to me

 

I pee'd in one. Guess which.

 

I guess i will let my doberman smell them all when i get them...The one she pees on will probably be the one...

 

I think I might take you up on that offer. Plus I could always use a trip to Baywalk and the Pier.

 

whatchu need? lol
