Nice potential donor for you Noreasters

[Ark :D]

2009 Cobalt SS/TC
Lyman, Maine
Sale date not yet determined, as of 11/7/19

It's not a rollover, but it looks like something big and heavy fell on it and it's not likely to attract rebuilders in my opinion. Nice donor.

That does look promising. It's so hard to stop looking for donors even long past that point in the build. They just have so much untapped potential once they shed the cobalt shell.

It still baffles me why anyone buys a donor Cobalt with major front end damage, when most of what you use is in the front end.... Plenty of rear-ended or rollovers to preclude that from happening...

My SS/TC donor was totaled in the front end. I bought it because is still ran fine, and the availability of low-mileage, SS/TC donors is very low.

My SC donor was totaled in the front too. You don't need the radiator, or even the engine mount that was broken when the engine got pushed back an inch or so. The suspension and subframe were fine. My donors damage was up high on the front... hood and lights were toast.

So this car appeared on Facebook Marketplace as a partout today. I guess some people make a living out of ripping apart wrecked cars. Certainly not my profession of choice, but to each, their own.
