Rear End
Andrew, we may never know. I have spoken at length with Pete the owner, as well as the Backdraft guys... While the crash characteristics are very similar as well as the area of failure (rear end), we suspect, think, guess, hope the actual point of failure was different.
We know in my case it was definitely a lower control arm bolt failure. Pete's wasn't, as the same bolt was still intact in its housing on his car. A positive I guess if you can call it that.
It has been a difficult process ... learning to drive LHD with a dog box, lunched engine, broken diff and now crashing and effectively wiping out the RHS of the car...
A rather unhappy and expensive process overall..but I was lucky unlike Peter, so I have that bit to be thankful for...
We continue to rebuild.....and try to have fun!
