Today I got a couple items of interest from member Boydness. I got a race car trailer to tow EcoMudder to the mud parks.....................![]() And I got member Woodie's 98 Chevy Metro 1.3L 5-speed................ ![]() ![]() ![]() Back in December after Boydness bought Woodie's Magnum, Hurricane Sandy's high winds took this car out on a bridge in Washington, DC and destroyed the front end and even deployed both air bags.............. ![]() I wasted no time in the shop tonight using the sledge hammer to straighten the 2 front bumper supports........ ![]() I then started collecting parts I salvaged through the years including my wife's old 97 hood, the headlight buckets, headlamp housings, and airbags. I also had a good fender saved from her 96 Metro............... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Looks like I got some more front end tweaking to do to get it all lined up and straight again. The car still runs and drives good, but more investigation will continue. Stay tuned

Very cool. I was afraid it would end up in the junkyard. I loved that car. |

How fast were you traveling when it took a header? Nice to see that the front end wasn't pushed all the way to the firewall. Looks like an easy rehab with the Boss' skill set. Keeping another Metro on the road. Good luck Boss |

I am not sure who makes the rims, but they are 15" rims running 205/50/R15 tires. Today I got the front end all straightened out and got the headlamp modules installed............![]() ![]() I took it for a drive to see if there were any serious issues and it drives good. There is a hole in the radiator, the A/C condenser got trashed, and it might need a clutch soon....... ![]()
