The Hurtin' Albertan... for real.

The more I look into it, the more I'm leaning toward fixing parts rather than getting donor parts. With the except of the hood and doors. The windows are smashed and the rolling mechanism was broke on both sides anyway, so now that they're dented too it seems like it'd be way less hassle to just get new doors.

So I got the hood off and this is my interim replacement. Pretty sweet, right? Damn my amazing fab skills, I amaze myself.

:bowdown:  I'm forever envious of your fab skills. That was quick!

That's totally something you would see in SE Georgia

I set aside some time to use my multimetre to test all the wires and figure out what needed replacing, then I remembered that the multimetre was in the truck when it was stolen and was not returned with the vehicle. Cue the trombone (whomp whomp).

I finally started working on the Ole MJ again. Miraculously, whatever issue was making her not start has resolved itself. She sat with that tarp on and pallet for over a year. I didn't touch anything at all and now she starts!

 

The driver side hood latch doesn't match up, though. I'm going to see if the frame is bent (if it is, I give up). Being wrecked seems to have knocked the front end off kilter. Hopefully it's just the body.
