Message First of all, I wasnt even driving when it happened, my dad was. I never got to even say good bye.
Anyway, my dad was driving along on a county trunk road at about 55mph (the X was getting calipers painted; on jacks) and while taking a long sweeper of a turn, he is side swiped by a fuckin Dodge Decrepid and tossed through about 300yds of mud and Corn Stalks and finall stops w/ a nose plant into a monstrous tree.
The shop called last night and said that its only about 20% salvageable, and that this was the damage:(most of it)
1 engine mount snapped off, 1 bent, front axle bent in two places, frontal right side of frame bent in 3+(unkown) places, radiator broken in half, full HL assembly torn apart, windshield completely off the car and shattered, right side A-pillar bent(untweakable)....and the list most likely goes on. We havent gotten a quote from the insurance company, but considering the car had over 150k miles on it, the money I get will probably just be salt in the wounds. Im still in disbelief, but maybe this is gods way of giving me an invitation to the dark side.
Ill post some pics If I can get a hold of them from Ins.Co, or before it gets totaled Ill go take some.

Everything Happens For A Reason, Some Reasons Are Just Pretty Fuckin Hard To Understand.
