The hit was nearly straight and dead center. The frame is pretty stout with the cage and all. We crawled under and it looks square. so far.

The hit was high and that was a blessing. Most of the energy traveled through the quarters and soft rear valances.

Been there, done that...

Cars can be fixed. Don't let this kill your enthusiasm for the car... it did for me for a while. Even after it was fixed, I couldn't enjoy driving it because I was so paranoid. I was even really close to selling it at one point, then I realized how fun it is to modify it, and the enthusiasm and fun of driving it came back. :thumbsup: When I realized I fixed it once (er... twice if you count the resto), and I could do it again, the paranoia went away.

BTW, that's Keith Anderson's El Camino in the background before it became a bitchin' PT ride. :)

I forgot the BESTEST part...

I got a ticket for no proof of insurance. It was in my bag in the trunk and it wouldn't open.

:rofl:

Glad to hear you were not hurt too bad. Keep up the positive attitude and it is still one of the baddest cars out there. That picture is sick, my new background.

It's f'd up, no doubt about it, but it can be fixed. I just get a bunch more drama in my life and I have a killer headache..
