RIP Red83

here is the last picture i took of my car before the accidents.
it was basically totaled. i'll have those pics up laterz
.


oh yeah it was hit in rear 1/4 + door, then later the fron was wrecked by a person flying through a stop sign.

the wheel were 15x9.5in hammers
i have no idea if the car had ever been dropped but it sat pretty low and handled decent cafter the new shocks.

sorry to hear about your loss, but it looks like your going on to bigger and better things. Today I almost got hit by an 18 wheeler A car infront of it decided to turn and instead of slowing down the 18 wheeler decided to get completely into my lane. The bad part about it was he was at the top of this small hill and I was going up it, so that was one hell of a suprize I got, I had to get on the sholder and partly get my pass side in the grass. whew, came close there.
