If I was hoping to drive it home I would see if those terminals would still plug in. The actual connectors just look bent a little and may still make contact okay for a short term fix. Not ideal or permanent but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Some added zip ties or something to...

It's manageable but will require lots of work. Maybe $20k would be an okay offer. But after I said that I thought it was still too high. Just look for another one that's from south of the salt zone.

Okay, I'm moving over to the "outside or heated air infiltration" camp. If you're getting 40ish degree air at the vents then the system is working. Get it buttoned up and you'll be fine.

I think I would wire a switch straight to the condenser fan for test purposes. Let it run 100% of the time for a while, also I assume you're including driving cycles and not just testing sitting still. I bring this back around because I just have mine on a switch and use it as needed...

So does your '99 have a condenser fan? My 07 didn't have one and I added one with noticeable results but I think I saw that pre 06 models had one. Anyway, if you have one , is it working?

Never used one, but I've seen many people swear by just making sure it has a well sealed cap on the fitting.

Am I missing something here? Wouldn't the dash cam turn off when you close the door before you start driving?

If the copper bracelets come with it , it's probably worth taking a chance. But plan on spending at least that again for other stuff after the brakes, and please don't expect it to be a daily driver. Any vehicle that runs is worth $1500. Although it would be nice if it would stop when you need to.

You are clearly a skilled fabricator. I would say that you have too much spare time but I understand that's not a problem when you enjoy what you're doing! Keep us posted.

Doesn't look too bad. If you're replacing that terminal, take it loose from the battery so you don't damage your new battery and then grab that old terminal with some Vice grips or something and just crank that nut off . Shouldn't damage the attachments even if you break the bolt. As clean...

Most comments seem to be judging that pic as the radiator. Looks more like the outlet or inlet to the engine to me. Am I mistaken? If not you have a mess inside the engine too. Probably rust, stop leak or a combination.

I'd agree, just buy the ARB, mount it high on the firewall, and send it. I don't think significant airborne humidity will work its way in through the lines. And you'll save lot of time. Just my 2Cents.

Pix help a lot. Someone will snatch them up pretty quick now. GLWS .

WOW! Unbelievably clean underneath, congratulations on a great buy.

I also think it will just get chewed up. But I'd try to get it out for a while.
