Looking for A2 Rear Body for Reverse Engineering

Unread post by lpcoating » September 23rd, 2016, 9:48 pm

Anyone have the back end of a trashed A2 that would be good enough for reverse engineering? I'd be interested in the back half or minimum of rear wheels back. Let me know what's out there. Interested only in parts on East coast.

Guy,

If Yorktown Va is not to far for you. we may have a complete completely rusted A2 body. Will make an effort to get to them and take some photos.

He is looking for a body to take apart at his facility so he can duplicate the panels.

Guy,
I went and looked at the derelict MUTT bodies yesterday. I have good news and bad news. Bad news is they are not A2's. Good news is they are M151's thought to be too far gone. However, with your hard work on making replacement panels at least two can be brought back.

Ok, been a very long time since I used photobucket. Why did only two photos load?

Fissed it for you. You had some really crazy syntax errors. When you go to Photobucket just click on the "IMG" link and then come here and just paste in the thread, nothing else. Do not click on anything in this thread, just paste.
