Damn Steve...I fell a little sick to see that pic and read the story. Glad your ok but i'd be in jail right now for second degree murder. You should have at least busted him in the mouth for being a idiot. WTF was he doing instead of paying attention??:rolleyes:

im feeling sick
 
OMG! When I seen the pic I thought I was going to throw up. I love your car, look at the pics all the time. I would have no clue on how you felt when it happen. Like others, Im hoping when I get mine done that dont happen to me. She is a beautiful car, and im sure your'll have her back in no time. Its just a shame. Best of luck with the rebuild.

Oh man Steve. I just saw this. The thing is, is that you are ok, and Penny will be fixed. Some people I swear, when I'm behind a car like that, I tend to be a little more cautious that I don't hit it and not shove a Big Mac into my face while driving. What kind of bonehead cop would not over look the ticket, does he think someone would drive a car like that without insurance? Steve, you have your health and your car is in great hands, it's just time and insurance money my friend. Luckily you have plenty of it. What's the bill, or do you know what it's going to cost yet?

Dude. I think we all have this nightmare about getting are cars done and not long after some idiot not paying attention slams into the back of it, or pulls out in front of it and SLAM. Good thing your OK, but id still get checked out by a doctor, youll be surprised what happens to your body in an accident. Im glad youll be able to fix her, i hate to see a good horse put down.
I guess thats the chance we take when we turn the key and head out for a drive, but you know if you were in your daily driver he never would have hit ya. Seems the old classics are a magnet for idiot drivers.
Poor Penny.

Holy crap.....

I bet the guy was totally focused on "what a cool car in front of me" and forgot to think about stopping distance and before he knew it, it was too late.
I get alittle freaked out when stupid people do stupid things around you just to get alook at your car. They stop paying attention to the road and just stare at your car.

Man that sucks big time. Not to mention its 100x worse in the fact that you just finnished her.

I can only imagine how you feel....

Somewhere around $10k - $15k is my laymans guess. The real test is when the quarters are opened up.

Yea, the ticket thing was silly, I think even the cop would agree. lol

My garage is empty and that's sad. I think I will take these two month to totally revamp the garage with new drywall, cabinets and paint.

Tomorrow I start making calls to insurance companies.
