I'd switch all the stuff over to the red one to avoid any frame tweaking that may have occurred in the accident. But thats just me. You know if it ran since the accident? If not could be the inertia switch, but that would be a miraculously easy fix lol.

The red one has a lot of front end damage. The blue one only the door is hurt and the red one has no title.

They inspect vin numbers here. I looked close at the door is the only place that has damage. The rocker is intact and straight.

With all the rain we have had, the wheat grass has grown fast. Here is the picture of the engine.
