After tearing it apart and looking at the car it looks like the damage is irreversible due to my lack of funds :( The roof is creased on the passenger side and the firewall is pushed in slightly. I'm going to look at a 81 grand prix that has the special power leather viscount seats, all brand new suspension components, and a 4 speed setup. Perfect candidate for the dugnash my dad has and will be looking at this Saturday. Another car that I will be looking at not this Saturday but very soon is a 84 h/o. My plans for the 2+2 are to use it as a parts car, will use 2+2 aerocoupe window, deck lid, all that jazz on the 81 if I get it

Sorry to hear that the car is in worse shape than you thought. I understand your decision, but I was looking forward to see ing the 2+2 being brought back to roadworthy condition. Hope everything works out OK with your next car.

so I know you all are going to hate but this is all I could get out of my brother, he wouldn't help with the funds to rebuild it but he did offer to let me pick between a 75-79 chevy nova or 84-88 fiero. I picked the fiero for a number of reasons, #1 great gas millage, #2 easier to find a stick rather than finding a nova with one, #3 I really like the look of the fastback model. I will still be on here from time to time to look at all of wonderful projects gbodyforum especially yours gbodyvet! As soon as I pay back my brother for the fiero I'll start saving up for yet another gbody and when that time comes o what a surprise I have for you guys ;)

I have a friend who has a couple of these cars, including one with a V8 in it. There is alot you can do with them. Good luck with the Fiero, I hope you have fun with it. When you get back into the G bodies, let us know what you've got.
