So Sean (Dr. Evil) came over tonight with a few friends and pulled the last remaining parts from my '87 Parts car. Took a couple pics just to commemorate this occasion.

Here's a good pic of an S12's R200 assembly

And the interior, completely emptied of everything black.

Sean got the whole rear end out, lifted it into the truck, plus moved the entire interior and rims over in an hour, flat. It was pretty amazing. So now all I have to do is call a scrap metal guy and the car is gone, and I finally get to park a running vehicle inside my garage again. ;)

If anyone's interested, I took pics of everything I tried with this car and put them here,

Original plan was to build up the car as my "Race S12", but then the Opel took precedence over it and decided to just strip it and make my money back instead.

It's heading to the scrap heap Monday morning. I probably won't have time to do any more work to it before then. It's toast.

No, being used in the Opel for the engine swap.
