A full pull with the Mystique

[FavoriteMystaque]

My Dad figured out how to straighten the corner frame on my Mystique, it was actually softer metal and took some tapping, leverage, and a large, not very healthy Norway Maple. Only needed 1/4 throttle! I would not recommend doing this (not safe) but worked.

You could see it move, had to pull past the right point and it "relaxed". Parts (lights/grille) are on the way, I will need to go to salvage yard for fender and hood. The hoods are more scarce. There are too many deer to hit:help:

I've used the big maple in my front yard for miscellaneous pulls It's very effective and you know it's not going anywhere :laugh:

I've even used the same tree for bending exhaust back hehe

I once used my old probe for pulling the rear corner of my brother's truck out after a fender bender. Just pulled that ebrake, got in the truck, and let her rip LOL I was lifting the little probe but it worked alright

Edit: I also later used that same probe to pull the Truck through a snowy parking lot and we were able to pop start it after the battery died. Couldn't manage to jump start the darn thing though. :crazy:

To get the radiator support on the 95 uncrunched, we had a rather gay looking pile of guys pulling on it. Me up front on the cast iron bar with an iron plate between that and the support. My freind behind me on the bar as well. Another freind behind him, and one last guy at the very end. I never felt so dirty in my life. Got it fairly staightened out though

CEG'ers are full of ingenuity:crazy: and other stuff...Hopefully, I can post some better pics of my Mystique later on!

You are Carfax's worst nightmare! :laugh:

Congrats on the fix though!

 

[FavoriteMystaque]

Yes, Carfax will be "clean". I have one for the car, it had door repaired, rear bumper, but it is not in the report, just in receipt collection. I think that happens a lot...I'd mention this repair to a future buyer, was not more than cosmetic damage anyhow.
