Hey guys,
Well the unthinkable has happened. My beautiful 2002 Spa turbo'd S2K met its match. The telephone pole destroyed it. I spun on a corner and slid backwards/sideways into a telephone pole. Completely sheared the trunk off behind the wheels. I am ok, but beat to hell. Very lucky to be alive. Anyway, I need a little help. I need a rolling chassis to rebuild with, or I am going to part out everything. Everything from the rear bulkhead forward appears to be ok. Passenger compartment and engine compartment are untouched. I have a complete CR interior, built and sleeved 9:1 motor, Alaniz ported head, PFAB twinscroll topmount ELT mani and GT35R turbo. The downpipe and dual dumptubes and wastegates are fine. Engine and tranny are fine. I have KPro with the RSX wideband modification and a working Tunerview2 module to go with it. I also have an AP2 tranny with a Puddymod stage 3 rearend with AP2 flange. This is not a for sale thread (yet), but if you are interested in any of the parts, especially the CR interior, let me know. Also, if you know anyone with a cheap rolling chassis, let me know. Here are a few very sad pics. Be careful out there.....
Thanks guys.

Damn you musta been hauling ass to do that much damage in the rear.
Not real fast.... Changed into 3rd gear at full throttle on just a little s curve and rear snapped around. I have played on this little curve countless times and never had any issues. I have never had the tires break loose before, either. So fast, it was scary. Car snapped around 180 degrees and slid sideways and I caught that pole with the passenger rear quarter panel just behind the tires. It just sheared the trunk off. Very lucky to have been walking and taking those pics you see. Tore mufflers off and trunk lid on ground away from car. Stereo box all over the field and my trunk mounted battery in pieces scattered all over that field. Another foot into the rear wheel or passenger compartment and I might not have fared very well....
