Hello everyone, I have not been around in ages. I figured now is as good of time as any to get back on the board, I still have my 86 cougar and a buttload of parts as well. I was involved in an incident saturday night at the local racetrack while directing traffic. I washiznit by a trailer so i cant really walk without crutches. If you wish to see the damage you can look here. I will warn you these two pictures ARE graphic and not for the faint of heart.

I have not done too much with the car altho I will be needed some parts and help locating a few things for my car soon. I recently installed new low beams and love them, Silvania Silverstar. Next month I should have the high beams as well. I will be looking to find a good set of headlight bezels and surrounds or restore mine. I also want to see if i can locate a set of headlight covers to prevent rock chips and such. Any information is appreciated. I will post in the wanted ad's as well when I have money available.

Again i am back and will try to continue putting effort in providing information where i can.

Eric

the pain is mild... mainly a throb but sometimes it amps up a little bit. worst part of the ordeal so far is getting the needles to the foot to numb it for staples.

thank you all... glad to be back. As a matter of fact it looks like a friend and i are heading out thursday to go fishing on a boat... we will see how THIS goes LOL

As for how it happened... my stupidity. I mistimed the truck and trailer going behind me with the car going in front of me. I stepped back to allow the vehicle in front of me to move ahead and my left foot got caught against the tire.
