    I'm fairly new to the site but I know you guys are great at posting tons of pictures and I think it would be nice to see a thread full of my favorite car ever made. I don't care if its a 4 door or 2 door, or bone stock, or fully custom. Let's see what everyone's got!:D

  21. I feel your pain. I did the same thing about three years ago. Only put a couple star cracks in the windshield though. Creased both front fenders, bent the hood, and bent the cowl (ouch!!) when it pushed the wiper towers down.
