McLaren1 Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 (edited) Looking into getting mine in order. Probably only needs forward k frame? Probably doesn't need to be turbo. Need a donor possibly. Looking at options been out of the game so don't know current values. Also was my understanding a McLaren was fully optioned. I can't find any with moon roof or leather. I don't think one better optioned than mine exists. So I don't know what to do as far as donors Edited June 11 by McLaren1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schurkey Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 (edited) WHY does your car need a "k frame"? What is actually wrong with it? Edited June 11 by Schurkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLaren1 Posted June 27 Author Report Share Posted June 27 Guess I'm not prepared. All I'm going on is towtruck driver said k frame was rusty couldn't hook to? I haven't had in the air to look. Just depressing sitting here like it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen subframes on 1st gen w-body cars rust before. Edited June 27 by 94 olds vert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55trucker Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 ^ K frame? was a slang Chrysler term for the front suspension member in their vehicles, so named because the frame was in the loose shape of a K. GnatGoSplat and l67ss 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any specific experience with the Turbos but does it run? If it does, do the brakes work? What would you need a donor for? How is the rust? If the tow truck driver meant the subframe was rusted when he said "K Frame" That will be a bit of work to replace but very much doable. Have any other pictures of the car, be it the underside, interior, or engine bay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
