hi rev this is the first time i have had a chance to read this thred . sad to hear this story about what should be a cool car. i shot you a email with my phone#. give a call when you get a chance. if it did not get to you shot me another pm . i am shure that with all this help we will get this problem solved. if you can figure what you dont need from the donor car sell it on the member market place to help recover some of the cost. we all could use some kind of parts. wishing you all the best
