The Aztec would've thrown the deer off of a pyramid. I think I'm messing up my histories.

 I see this all the time on deliveries around here. I've hit one already, but the car in front of me took the brunt of the impact (F-250 or F-350 at ~70 mph, I ran over the carcass after they hit it.... destroyed the truck, left a lot of fur and gore on the bottom of Negative Ions).

I'm no expert, but isn't there supposed to be more chassis on that chassis?

Body yes, chassis no (other than the rear brushguard). Purchased with a rod knock, engine now seized. AI has the best mod

Dagen H posted:B18B1-swapped EG hatch: ok Was gonna ask which B motor that is, since all of the non-vtec USDM B series motors look pretty much the same. Has it taken up a smoking habit, or is that just a cold day? My old B18A1, by the time I was done with it, had almost no compression on 2 cylinders, and fogged out the parking lot at work bad enough that they made me start parking at the far end of the parking lot. Friend I sold it to said when he dropped the exhaust manifold, oil ran out of it. ... it was using about a quart per tank of gas. With no significant leaks. Anytime I had a tailgater, I could get rid of them pretty easily by just dropping down a gear and letting off the gas.

Just a cold day (note the frost). Currently parked due to a mystery coolant leak.* Also, 215/35R18 is an odd tire choice for a "winter beater". *I need a goddamn pressure tester

So how do you get the center cylinder wrist pins in place? I've only ever hosed around with VW Boxer engines, and getting the wasserboxer together is a real bastard because of how hard it is to install the pins. It's mind-numbingly difficult and you have to use a water pipe opening to fight them in and out, there are no special provisions made like on a Subaru engine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LZyJPy_mIo

I can tell you from experience that dent will come right out with some PDR. The front fenders on my 9-2X dent if you look at them funny.

Too bad you couldn't find a stock WRX hood. They're aluminum and super light.
