Default wrecked car!!!!!

Last night in my way to work, some snot nosed little s**t pulled out in frn of me in front of taco bell on oak harbor while I was goin about 40 on the 20... We hit. I totalled his ford escort, and did some pretty good damage to my t/a. Ill have pictures up soon. I am sooooo mad, it took every bone in my body to not go over there and kick his ***! But at least eeryone is okay. If my preg wife had been in the car who knows what I would have done. I didnt get a sratch on me, but I am really sore and have a few bruises. Well Just wanted to let everyne know! Bye !

That sucks! I hope I NEVER have to experience this in my TA. I am afraid what I might do....

I hope everything works out & you get your ride fixed soon.

Sorry to hear about the wreck but the bright sides are that you are ok, your preggo wife was NOT in the car and you didn't do anything stupid. Cars can be replaced, people and criminal records cannot.

That is sooooo lame. I am sorry about your ride. When I hurt my car it was weeks before I could even come on the forum. Just reading the posts made me mad.

What color is your t/a? I may have seen you around town but am not sure. I drive the loud white camaro that runs around town.

Hate to hear bout that. I assume you hit it in the front, so will you be getting some nice new paint on your hood & nose?

Daym Chris, that sucks big time
I know you were debating on selling it awhile back, maybe its good you didn't. I am SOOOOOOOO glad your wife and baby due weren't in the car, make sure to take care of your back NOW or you will regret it when you hit my age (which is about as old as dirt). The other driver is lucky...in the sense you didn't call all your buddies to make sure they ended up hurting as much as you are about your car

eternal damn optimist thought coming up....

Now you can get a new paint job and whatever dents out of it, maybe change the hood with some detail. If there is anyway you can swing it get an extra coat of clear on it so you have more to work with in getting scratches out plus protecting it. Sometimes if you talk with the shop that is going to fix it you can get a lot more done for just a couple of hundred bucks - its always worth a shot

Glad you are just sore (inside and out) cuz we all know what IDIOTS are out on the roads round here.

What command are you with? I'm with vp-46 down in hanger 7. Maybe we've run into each other a few times unknowingly.

Read your pic post and missed this. Glad you are well!

Watching plastic fender chunks flying past the windshield (and onto it) is an experience I hope few have. I didn't like it.
I hit a Honda that pulled out in front of me and totalled it too. Took the whole rear bumper off the Honda with most of the impact going to the right front wheel of theT/A. Lost the hood, fender, nose, headlight assembly, wheel and tire, core support, and upper innerframe assembly. Similar to your mess but not quite as bad.
Turned out to be someone I used to work with hurrying home from Christmas shopping.

In case anyone didn't know already Leif's autobody sucks.

This was Ellis's First '95 Z28 2 days after he bought it...Dec '97...He blew a tire, went up on an embankment on the right, went airborn across the road and landed in some trees...Him and his Passenger (my best friend) were both ok..He hurt his foot where the motor stuff came through and messed up his back (ribs) a little, but otherwise was ok...
