Unread post by Mr. Recovery » June 30th, 2015, 5:45 pm

I have started to cut up the rusted A-2 I picked up last year. Please "PM" me if you see something you need. The rear fender inner supports are going to Guy to copy, Here are some photos.

The 1st 3 were taken today as I was ripping the rear panel off.

These were taken when I first got it home.

That looks like a battery charger, one on the frame and one on the floor. HTN, I might even pass on that one.

Oh, and Dan, you NEED a bigger garage!

This is Vzike and myself (the short guy) at my place. :)

Cutting the front fenders off now to use on another project. They're the most solid parts on the tub. I also need the rear fender back corners for the next project. The guys at the garage have a lot of ammunition to fire at me now. Seriously, I don't think the scrap yard would take this. I'll get something out of it. Thanks Dan.

Got the fenders off the front, the back quarters off, and a part of the transmission tunnel I need for another project. The rest is being reduced fast.

If anyone needs any, let me know quick or it will be gone.

I sent flyingvan911 an email asking what he might need. He did not respond.

Frankly, there is not much that is of use with this.The main frame members were rusted completely through. All panels, other than the tops of the fenders were toast. I cut the front frame members off, since they were brazed together. I cut the body in half where the rust had eaten through the frame. All floors were gone... really gone! The rear cross frame member may be usable. Maybe some of the firewall. If I do not receive a request from someone soon, I'll cut up the rest and take it to the scrap yard.
