My slick got rocked pretty hard on I-20 today. I'll post pics tomorrow.
passenger fender
bumper
bumper "skirt" (?)
Pass. door,
Grill
Headlight door
upper grill (?)
Not to mention:
3speed
rear end (pretty sure it took a thrashing).
It's my only daily driver.
I'm back on the bike just a winter begins (which is ok).
Any advice, parts, pointers etc. would be helpful.
Here's the immediate plan:
Bodywork - not too concerned. Between the salvage yards, farms, connections, etc. I should be able to make these happen over the next month.
Tranny/rear -
Option 1: I have been talking to a local fellow about his LSC 302 HO and AOD. I don't want to go with an AOD, but since they are both running well enough I could stick it in for the time being. What is that ordeal going to be like? Any words?
Option 2: I'm pretty sure I can find a decent 3 speed somewhere close and bolt it in behind the 302, sell the AOD to defray costs and not have to worry too much about adaptations, etc.
I'm probably going to try and have my rear rebuilt with an LSD (it's a 3.70)
I wouldn't say I'm fighting tears, since this will put the fire under my butt to get these things done in short order and remove some of the hesitation involved in the projects.
The final word though. . .THIS SUCKS and I and heartbroken.
(The best part is that traffic was light enough and my friend and I didn't get hurt).
