Unhappy My Fd is no more... R.I.P. 11/21/06

I am so sad, some one t-boned me last night and completly demolished the whole driver side. I was making a U-turn and they plowed in to me. I don't know what I am going to do now. i didn't have full coverage and don't have money saved to buy another. oh well those were the cards that were dealt to me and I will run with it. everything happens for a reason... atleast I didnt get seriously hurt. tore up my ear and hand but i am ok.

Glad to hear you are ok. Sad about the FD. Was it deemed your fault or the other?

i am going to get it from the tow yard now. i will take pics and post them but i think i already have a guy in town that wants it for 3000, so i will prolly do that unless some one has a better offer. the only parts that are damaged are the door, quarter and fender and minor right rear suspension. it drived fine i just dont want to deal with fixing it.

Sorry to hear that Beth. That sucks really bad. I know how you feel. Who would of thought almost exactly a year after I totaled my FD you would have totaled one of your own. Be safe and be good.
