EB II S pac on BAGS!!

Postby big-fella » May 11th, 2008, 5:39 pm

Some pics of the new ride stance of my EB!

Best part it was FREE, and the guy didnt even let me know he was doing it.

Bad part the police told us about it..

I was working at 6:30. So i was in the shower and got a knock on the door.. The police told us the EB out the front had been ran into.

Went and had a look and ffaarrrkkk! not a good wake up call...

Everyone slept through it too which is odd lol.

Someone (from the part of a front bar it appears to be a 95 model magna) drove into the EB's driver side wheel. Knocking it back about 6 foot and ripped the suspension and guard to bit and leaving glass EVERYWHERE!!

Some how they drove off and left me with rubble.. Considering i was selling it and only had third party.. I was not happy.

So no longer and i an E series cruiser.. hehe. Im parting it out now.

So if anyone needs anything PM me (ill post stuff up soon).

That's the weirdest hit 'n' run damage I've ever seen :shock:

Funnily enough you'll probably get more for it by parting it out :P

Cost you a couple of hundred max to fix that - and save you the hassle of wrecking it.

Change the guard and indicator, replace the knuckle and lower control arm and anything else that's bent and sell it as a whole. Looks like the bonnet and door and bonnet survived so not a whole lot of cosmetic damage.

Replacing that suspension gear would take an hour.

The fact that the car is everglade is something that's on your side, luckily it's one of the more common colours.

Yeah i found out the other side had copped a hit before too (after a bit of a look around)..

So im not sure if its worth it. I found a guy that has the parts for me to use so i might just get it so its drivable for now.

But im pretty sure im going to part it out.. It wasnt going anywhere when i was trying to sell it drivable

Lol I was looking for the bags for a minute or two trying to work it out, then realised it was a joke after the pics of suspension. :P

Bad luck with the damage, I'd fix it up... would be a lot easier than parting it out IMO.
