Oh man.  I'm so sorry that happened!  What a heart breaker.  I hope you have good insurance and can source some good replacement parts!  Bummer.

the insurance part is what is getting me down. liability just wont cover that and the other driver got up and ran away like nothing happened.

My car is a gravity hybrid.  The gasoline engine gets me up the hills, and gravity gets me down.

you dont have comprehensive?

Nationwide would have covered my explorer last week for $100 deductible, but I ended up pulling parts from the yard, same color for $50.

Just an idea

You know, I know a lot of people who go waaaay deep into the woods to get deere, and half of the time, they come back with nothing.

It seems to me that the sensible solution would be to travel a road surrounded by woods and just wait. you're bound to get one eventually..


I hope your insurance covers that 88turbo. Good luck!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
