AE82 Went off roading.... to the ditch...

AE82 Went off roading.... to the ditch...

It was raining and I lost control going around 35 or so (driver stupidity syndrome)... I didnt have a camera at the scene. I will post pics of the scene tomorrow.






And the worst part... The tranny oil pan(?) hit the curb and actually broke the curb. That would give you an idea of the impact. I will lift the car and clean the bottom part with brake cleaner to find oil leaks.




Also, my bad suspension has gotten worse. The rear driver strut is busted. You can lift the car and it would stay up, then push the car down and look like its lowered some...

Lifted


Dropped



There is some good outcome from this incident... Can someone tell?

|Damn man sorry about the "driver stupidity syndrome" lol

I see some good things coming out of this tho. |Maybe some beefed up suspension?? A new front end, maybe a conversion of some sort? Keep us posted!

Yah... Whatever does not kill one makes him a better person, i hope... As for the good part, look at the tranny pics, there you'll find a hint...

Can't tell what kind of car that is behind your Corolla - getting hooked up with a new car?

Yup. Meet the new addition to the family. 09 5spd






With his much older sibling





You might notice that on the first two pics the newer car is off-focus, i had nothing do to with that. I guess the digicam had some favoritism issues...

Nice new addition!

Now, sell me your AE82

damn,cant believe your oil pan still in one piece...

Actually, the tranny oil pan is harder than the engine oil pan, way harder that is...

Its amazing how big newer cars are. The new Corolla would've been considered a mid size sedan about 5-10 years ago

i lyke the new corolla...

Well, the AE was backed up some more than the newer one.

my bad,it was your tranny oil pan that was damage and luck it didnt hit your oil pan

lucky is true... The car almost landed on its roof.

it wont stop you...you got a brand new 09' corolla,do some touge runs tell me hows the suspension,lol.

nice new addition.

im getting the newest gen audi a4 soon )))

^ ballin!

I'd take that kind of result any day. haha.
