    Default RIP Baby:

    Well guys, on Aug. 18th 2002 I wrote my car off because of my own stupidity. I hit a meridian at 90KM (around 55 or so MPH) sideways and destroyed my car.

    I have decided to make a little time line of my car for you all to see what happened in the last two years of it's life. As I have said, the car was headed to the junkers two years ago in October. I fixed numerous engine problems and body damage issues and then proceeded to mod it up.

    Click on the link for the pictures:

    Here is my car two years ago when it was stock and I had JUST got it that day:

    Here was my car one year later on a road trip:


    Here was my car 1 and a half weeks ago:



    Lasty, here is my car after the accident:

    and

    Ah man...I know how that feels...

    It doesn't look completely distroyed, but its that undercarraige that really adds up...did you drive it to there like that? It looks like you are at a Macs or something...where did it happen?


    Good that no one was seriously hurt...time to find another ride to pimp I guess...

    Well, I hit the meridian turning east onto 26th ave from 36th st NE. I didn't know the wheel fell off so I drove it and I was like OHH CRAP! There are sparks flying everywhere. There is no body damage, however the sub-frame is destroyed and so is the uni-body frame (car frame) the car is bent in the middle like it was pushed in.

    I don't know what I am looking for. I want a Saturn.....I love those cars

    I'm ok and my buddy Chris is ok....Those of you who know Chris know that he is probably the extra weight that stopped my car from flipping over.

    look at this guy! hahahah don't even ask if he's alright, goes straight for the goods, direct and to the point! i love it!! hahaha


    but seriously, i'm glad to hear that you're alright, that would really suck if something happened, the same sorta thing happened to my friend, and he was not as fortunate as you. ended up in the hospital for about 2 weeks... glad you're alright, time to find another ride.

    Depends if the insurance company is doing with it. I get money for them and to be honest, I need it. lol From what I was told, A-1 Auto body was considering buying it as a loaner car.....I doubt it though.


    Thanks for the support guys
