Bad news, the inerfender pushed into the firewall enough to tweek it, im not gunna bother wit it. That being said im gunna keep an I out for a non running Tib in disrepair rather then one with major body damage.

When you do find the car you decide to rebuild start a new post and write it like a blog. Keep pictures up to date and a parts list of what you need. I think within our community we would be happy to help each other out for such a good cause. I know if I was in the junk yard I would pull parts for you cause if there was a list.



I really hope this gets off the ground.

When we find the right car I will snag it up and document are progress for sure. I showed her some RD2's but she does not like the headlights so if we get a Tib it will be an RD1 (97-99?). Alyssa is open to an X3 Accent as well, the 97 style front bumper. I never noticed how similar the lower portion of the bumper on the 97 X3 and my LC are. Makes me wonder how close my astrel lip comes to fitting that front.

Bah! Everyone knows the RD2 front is the best



Good luck with the search. I'd offer to help find you a chassis but it would cost more to transport it from here to there than it's worth. And x2 for that build blog. That's a must!
