filter, plugs, wires, turbo drain hose, turbo drain flange, springs, engine
mounts, exhaust system, strut bearings, wheels, tires, dash board,
instrument cluster, heater blower and switch, windshield and gasket, AIC,
battery, battery cables, drive shaft, oil sender, all vacuum hoses, all
wire harnesses were cut, headlights, front valence, rear spoiler, shift

mods, all that and more were just completely shot.



$18,000?!?!? You sure it wasn't $1,800? I can't imagine spending $18,000 on
the car... I just can't even see there being $18,000 worth of parts on there.
Right now I have about $3k into my turbo rabbit.
