#5547, "Interesting way to do FWD->AWD swap."




          

So I had some fun last night. One of the NEDSM guys picked up a 98 GST DIRT cheap. He then had a TSI AWD rolling shell donated to his project to make the GST AWD.
I got there last night around 8pm and we starting stripping everything left on the AWD donor car we could.
After we finished, we dragged it in the middle of his driveway, threw some tow straps around it and proceeded to use a truck to roll it over onto it's roof.
That made it VERY easy to rip the drivetrain out. Who needs lifts?
I took a bunch of pics and a few short videos of the car rolling over. I'll post a link to where they will be tonight or tomorrow.

I guess you could say that: http://newengdsm.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7875&highlight=red+sled

He parted the whole car out (I have his exhaust and wideband ) so not much was left at by the time Tony got to it.

That thing is spread thin over quite a few people in NEDSM. I am now the pround owner of his gas door and the fiberboard spare tire cover.
I'll post up a link to the pics after I get them to Chris Nichols and he hosts them.
There's video too. Unfortunately, the video I was taking cuts out after the car continues to roll end over end into the truck pulling it.

Okay good. At least it was already severely damaged before being parted. It has my blessing to be posted now.
