So I hear people use front and rear end from jags...... do they use the engine too? I'm asking because I have a perfectly good running 90 xj6. I don't want the car so I'm thinking of selling it. But I'm wondering would someone want the parts or should I sell it as a whole. Trying to figure the...

bent frame I'm just kicking around a few thoughts. I'm still dealing with insurance . They only want to pay 50percent of my damages

So I've taken truck cabs off the frame. No problem.but fow hard is it to pull a whole car off a frane? My wife wrecked my 64 buick. All front damage. Frames bent . Was wondering if it would be easy to pull it off the frame and stick it on another?

He has put the engine in and made all new motor mounts.but I start looking and it's all wronge. It looked decent but the engine is 1/8 away from hitting the front axel. So I need to...

The front part of the frame where the leaf springs and shackles connect the fenders will hit. So if anything I think I'd have to widen the fenders so I could keep them wide but there's a lot of contours to let the hood and grill line up. I'm just gonna keep the eagle look.no front fenders, if...
