Hello chaps,
Just spent a load of cash getting CV half shafts done on front of car.. then on way home today breaks didn't seem to slow me down much.
I need a front bumper, radiator, bonnet, rad fans, and driver side headlight and frame that rad attaches to... Does anyone think this is possible to fix?

Duncan aka Kit should have most of the parts needed mate
I have a 24v rad with fans here,i would strip the bumper off
then measure from the bulk head on the nearside to the
front crossmember as it seems un affected then the same
on the off side to see if any difference
then go from there

That sucks. What bad Luck.
Don't want to be the bearer of bad news but the panel in front of the radiator is badly bent and a good way back, I''m looking at the angle of the headlights too - check the chassis legs aren't twisted.

But, why didn’t you stop!
The brakes on a Probe are generally quiet good, it there maintained
When was the last time the brake fluid was changed
Are the front pads really worn
When the drive shafts where changed, did the brake get ‘messed with.
Just a thought
Regards
Kit
