well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

So tuesday i got a call asking me to come to dinner at my friends house with the whole muscle car group and off road team.Well, with it being a meet i figured id take the camaro out and drive it for the first time in a while.

It had been sitting so i gave it a much needed detail. Heck i even washed my beauty rings in my sink(note to self:mom doenst approve).haha. so it came around to about the time to go,i filled up my airshocks and headeed to the gas station.upon arrival i got a few compliments,nothing out of the ordinary, then headed for the party.

Now keep in mind this party/meet had its fair share of red necks who came in thier trucks and whatnot.were all friends.

Anyways long story short-er..we had our fun and went on our way.i headed the opposite direction from the rest towards my house.well i turned on to a pretty busy two lane road and was headed for home.half way down that road it drops from a 50 one to a 40 zone.me, being on probation from a previous ticket and knowing cops sit there, slowed down to exactly 40.

however another car came at me doing about 80, someone leaned out the window and threw a 2 lb bag of flour at my car.it hit directly infront of my face and shattered my windshield,glass needles were all over the inside of my car,and flour was all over the outside.so much for the detail.i couldnt see so i locked up my brakes and swerved off the road so i wouldnt hit anyone.

i then drove to the nearest gas station with my head hanging out the window ace ventura style.once there i called the police and my parents.i also called my friends from the party who set up a road block of lifted trucks in hopes to catch them theirselves the red necks spread out with shotguns and machetes.i went inside to get coffee to calm me down and to kill some time before anyone got there.when i came out my parents were there along with two other people who were behind me who also got hit.

there was at least 5 others hit as well.the cops got there and started the search k9 units,sherrifs,undercovers,state troopers in of road police vehicles, and all.my damage was by far the worst,noone else got hit in the windshield,but there were small dents and bent wipers.

they still havent caught the kids who did it but i was told they have a lead from the bags of flour.

heres some pictures from that night and the morning after:

Yeah.. those guys better hope you don't find out who they are. If I were them I'd want to be caught by the cops and locked up for protection.

no its all one solid color its the red they used on the 2005 corvette.its looks different depending on reflections and light.sometimes it looks orange and sometimes it looks almost pinkish but its definately red.when i painted it i was looking for the brightest red without going orange,and thats what i came up with.

Orange: (lol dont mind the one wheel peel)

Dude, That sucks! Thankfully you're alright, didn't crash. Could have been worse too, good to see it was just the window to take most of the damage, and not the body.

Update if they ever catch the kids.

Re: well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

i am sorry to hear that man. I am glad you are okay though it could have turned out a lot worse if you know what I mean. It is to bad people don't have respect anymore. I just want to say you have the nicest third gen I have ever see. That is how I always wanted mine to look only I don't have the cash for mine to be like that. Anyway at least you will have a great story for your kids and grandkids.

Re: well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

I can't believe what people do. They are just jealous of other people having nice things. I bought my car last July from my neighbor and the paint would have been perfect but years ago he had it parked somewhere and somebody keyed the car. The paint still looks really good but you can see where he put touch up paint over it.

thanks for the generous compliment.i purchased the car 3 years ago when i was 15 for $300 with the hood.since then ive dumped another 1300 into the body(only because i had to rebuild it after someone totalled it head on) and i have 2000 tied up in the new motor...just look for deals theres plenty to be had out there.thats what i do.

and thanks to everyone else for the compliments and sympathy,i truely do appreciate it.

If you catch the guys who did it, you can get them.their parents to pay you back for the windshield. Just go get a 2nd, BIG, receipt to show them the cost of it!

Re: well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

I'm pissed off for you, how ****in stupid can people be. Sure it sounds like fun when your a dumb *** kid but in reality you could seriously hurt or kill someone and cause a ton or property damage. I did a lot of stupid things as a kid but never anything that could result in someone dying.. I hope they catch the morons who thought that was a good idea, make them pay for all the damage they did along with a heafty fine and/or jail time or a ton of community service.. There are enough things to worry about when driving such as stupid drivers that arn't paying attention to the road and people who drink and get behind the wheel, you shouldn't have to worry about some jackass throwing something through your windshield while your going down the road.. Sorry for the rant, I'm just imagining how pissed I'd be if I was in your position..

Re: well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

I don't often post to the site, and usually just draw on all the knowledge and inspiration on the site. But let me tell you, what happened to you absolutely sucks, not to mention could have killed you. I hope these jerk offs are found and punished to the fullest extent of the law, then put in a room with about 25 ThirdGen members!
Glad you didn't get hurt.

Re: well tuesday night wasnt such a good one for me(sad camaro pictures)

recently, my camaro was hit while some jacka$$ was trying to parallel park.
i only have liability ins as well, but i got a check for $270 from uninsured motor vehicle insurance. i have a $200 deductible, which sucks, and they pro-rated me like $80 for pre-existing damage to my bumpers paint, but the total they would have given me is $550 or so had all the variables been in my court.
you should get a lot more if you get anything at all

at least call your insurance and see what they can do.
file a police report and cover your ends, that way, the ins adjuster will be on your side (if he/she is a nice guy/gal)
mine sure was.
