ok,,on the video,,do you have a digital camcorder? of so quality would be kinda weak but doable,,use a tripod or coffee table and go for it,,and i agree at least a sx-4,,very obvious front diff in the nose end,,
until next time i'll be  :lurk:

Nah, the closest I have is a 5mp digital camera with a battery that wouldn't last long enough.

I do have another idea I'll have to try though.  I have a video tuner card on my old desktop computer, I could run a coax cable into that and record the video, that should be much better quality if I can get the thing to stay running for 15 minutes straight. After it gets warm it starts tripping balls and restarts itself.  It never was quite right after the liquid cooling system leaked on the motherboard.

Anytime someone is destroying a car just to destroy it they should go first to the easily accessible and cheap cars that no one cars about like Cavaliers, Sunfires, Escorts...etc. Those things are all a dime a dozen and cheap!
funny you should mention escorts as the new episode of mythbusters that was on tonight had one in it and they beat it up in a bedliner myth. as for cavaliers i can actually use some of the parts from 88 to 94 cavaliers for my racecar which is a 91 sunbird.
