Sadly Another Classic Falls vicitim to the Streets
Well unfortunately my 94 was wacked up pretty bad today. I just made a stupid left turn at the wrong moment. I didn't see the lady coming at me, and she didn't see me; Boom my front passenger side forward of the door gets crushed .

For some brief moments today I was kind of down about it, but I know I was able to walk away and that is the most important thing.

I think the frame is bent on the car. The right wheel had some wicked camber. In order to get the car to drive straight I had to turn the steering wheel right about 45 degrees, lol. I drove the car back home thirty miles so it proved it's worth till the end. These Sentra's are tough little bastards .

What is crazy is that as I was driving it out of the tow yard, the owner of the body shop next door wanted to buy it from me as is. He said he had worked at Nissan before and was looking for an SE-R as a daily. He then goes to his buddy and goes you know what that is. That is an SE-R. Car and Driver was right with that cult car statement.

Anyhow. I have a 93 shell sitting in my garage. As much as I was attached to my 94 I can't pull out a Shawn B with it. I just don't want to put any money into it at this point.

I'll pull what I can for my 93. I assure everyone though that piecing it out or junkyard status is last on the list of possibilities. I've got some ideas about what to do with it. I think the frame damage isn't to the point where it can't be corrected. I do feel this car does have a second life left for it. Most likely for somebody trying to race it. I just would hate for it to go to a yard. If it comes down to it I'll just hold on to it until my finances allow me to spark some life back into it. If I do hold on to it though it wont' be a pretty street car anymore. I'd probably use it as a dirty turbo track slut. McCoy and King Jeff really put me onto the turbo b13's owning more prestigious machinery.
