Hey, 2-3 hours of frame time, R&R the hood, install new headlamp door in replacment lt.ft.fender ,install & align lt. ft.fender , refinish as necessary. Cryin',& bitchin' won't change a thing.

FUUUUCK I jus wanna say that at least when shit happens, dudes like you prove you can get through it.
Oh my god Jason, this sucks! I can't believe it.....man that car was looking better than ever. You'll bring it back just like you did the last time...
hate to hear that, hope you get that car back together soon. make sure you do everything in your power to get that drunk driving sob the max penalty
Hey Jason, Man I don't know what to say. I'm just sick! I'll be praying that everything will work out and if I can do anything to help ya let me know. Pictures look awful, hopefully it can be rebuilt. Your ride is one of my favorite custom shoe boxes. Post what ya need and maybe a bunch of us can help out with the parts. Happy Trails, Mick
Yes,it sucks....................You can sue the guy for the damages to the car.Civil court isn't like winning the lottery.You'll get an award for putting the car back to the way it was before the wreck or money for a replacement if the car is wrecked beyond repair.You can't just sue the guy for a million bucks,doesn't work that way for property damage. We'll be watching here for your rebuild stories.........Good luck...
WOW, that does really suck. Sorry to hear the news. As you stated you really need an agreed value policy. Both Grundy and Hagerty will pay the owner of the car to fix the damage if they are capable and their premiums are really, really inexpensive, seriously. Yes you can, it's called agreed value. The insured puts the value on his own car, including labor, to make sure he gets full replacement value. I guess you missed the part about him not having collision coverage
Sorry man it looks like a really cool car worth fixing.Good luck bringing her back to life.Don't give up. I can't imagine having to tear back into the car you put so much work and countless hours into but it must be done! Good luck.
What a shitty thing to happen...was and will be again a great ride...I hope..sorry to see ya go through all this crap when ya should be cruisin.. I hope it works out for you...
if he had money, he'd have insurance , theres a lot of them dumbasses out there driving around, it sucks, but its true
if he uses the "uninsured motorist" on his insurance the insurance will go after the guy to reclaim their money for sure.
Yikes! I think I just spit up a little. HATE to see that! Good luck. Keep your chin up and post updates!
Luck has nothing to do with it! If you wait for luck all you'll do is get older.... Prior to loss appraisal and whop on the other guy with it.... Then get AGREED VALUE COVERAGE... You see it's not luck, it's logic and knowledge that gives you POWER..
Awww man, I am so sorry to see your beautiful car destoryed like that, I guess the only good things is you were not in it at the time. I will keep you and yours in my prayers
I feel sick man!! I'm so sorry. DUI laws should be tougher IMO, especially on uninsured motorists!! Drunk SOB!! Ian
Just happened to me too-I feel your pain. Am going to be dealing with an appraiser within the next hour. Might have to throw in that "prior to loss appraisal" lingo.
Holy shit.Drunk drivers,no trial,straight to execution.Dipshit will probably kill some poor bastard one day and walk off without a scratch. Good luck on rebuild 3,beautiful car like that deserves it. Paul
