Left out on Friday to go to Fayetteville, NC to pick up a nice '98 T/A WS6 roller with 31k miles on it to transplant my motor and trans into. It was cheaper to do that than to get the front rad support fixed correctly and paint the car, plus I like the color a tad better than red. Anyhow, here is some pics of it. The car had been sitting since 2007



After hand loading it on the trailer.








Worse spots on the paint














Love the taillights





Tan.....getting swapped out for the ebony in my other T/A

Why was the car sitting for 8 years?

Looks like a great project. Good luck with it.

Not for sure why it was sitting for that long. The guy I bought it from was going to make a street/strip car wth it but is going a different route, so he sold it.

And until this stupid ice storm finishes here in Tn I won't be doing much to it.

Someone did a good job on those tails! Its a shame they let it sit.

What was wrong with the rad support on your other car?

That's such a shame the took a low mileage car and abandoned it. But it's beneficial for you!

I bought the car wrecked in '07 and had it straightened out the best they could, the body shop said it was 2" down and 2" back. It still never lined up properly but it was an M6 car with 140k miles on it and I paid 3k for the car so I can't complain. I have another roller I bought that was hit in the side for the ebony interior which has a perfect front end on it, but the cost of doing that vs finding a perfect roller was a no brainer.
