What’s left of a rotary anyway. ...f it, add some  zip ties and get back out there .

Could be worse. It could have been an fd.

Wow there is so much room to float out. He must have  went around.  That’s a fast corner.

Ask if he wants a replacement, mines on the block, 70k on the engine 141k on the body, records and compression test in hand

Ouch. M y suspicion is that tub has far too much wrong with it to be worth fi xing. And, my bet is that the driver’s side shocks and rear differential are to ast too.

Usually wrecks look worse than they actually are in term of repairs. I think this is the opposite. This will be a pretty expensive fix. Darn, looks like a nice car.

Cut it in half and hang the other side on the shop wall?

Good shape aside from the fender rust. Haven’t prepped for sale yet, but feeling  out if someone wants to take that on to save some real money. Getting into a 05 with sterling provenance and compression and engine history for $5k is not an abundant opportunity from what I gather.
