T-Boo No Longer

It was awesome but sad at the same time. It was like watching T-Rex use a DSM for a chew toy. If anybody still wants it go out and buy some rebar in the next month you might get a small peice of T-Boo in yours.

Great Story!! Have any others?

Sounds like T Boo, formerly a DSM, is now about 400 can openers.

Heh, last night reading that it seemed like the most random nonsensical story ever, but with that simple explaination it actually made sense. Crazy.

I still miss that car every day

I'll never understand why so many people scrap shells, especially DSMs when I don't care what anyone says, there is a demand for them.

Where is demand? Certainly not around here... I wouldnt bother putting a car back together when all the interior is missing or the body is rusted to shit. Theres no point in doing the work. If hte car had no rust and was spotless maybe Id agree but I dont think it was.

The car was virtually rust free and had 2 tiny little dents all windows were good. Brian I know what you mean I wanted to shed a tear yet take pictures and laugh my ass off.
When I weighed the car It was right around 1500 pounds with no mottor or tranny. So I'm guessing when I had it it weighed a little under 2000 pounds just to let anyone know how much weight you can loose by gutting your car.

Everywhere. There are consisteny people like me who are unable to go purchase a good, solid running DSM but need something to set a groundwork and work from. That's why I purchased my Laser. I could afford $950 for a project but could not afford go out and spend $5K on a spotless 1G. I guarantee that, especially since Joe just described his former car to be in respectable condition, someone would have gladly taken it off of his hands. I could also start ranting about people parting out good DSMs but I'll stray away from that can of worms.
