Looks like any other 30 Spectre to me!


I'm sure it's a very quick way to 'disconnect' everything, but it makes me wonder how they lifted and carted off the 'good' half... that's an awkward and heavy piece to walk off with. Tow truck, flat bed with a winch?

Nort,
I believe that is the coring material we are seeing. Unbelieveable how they did that. They cut it where the trailer bucks are gapped for travel lifts straps would slid in! Bastards!

Heard about things like that but had never seen it so graphic...

So they take gauges worth $80 each and leave the throttle and shifter worth $2k...
