How many times am i gonna have to fix this. good story...

just about half an hour ago me and my dad were towin my maro out of the shop at the college and we got it on our street and we were tryin to back it in but the dolly that we used only attached to the front wheels so when we turned the truck one way the rear of my car would swing the same, and so we were just fighting against ourselves. well my genious father was doin that and just swingin the rear of my car around to get it to line up , i was on the other side when i heard something BAD, and i went to the other side to see the front tire had come off the front of that g*y a$$ dolly.
AND the damn f#$&ing POS wheel well of that thing was buried into my door, yes it was the new door skin, yes it was all primered and ready to be block sanded and painted. **** me off. I don't even want to talk about how we got it off the dolly p.i.t.a.
so now once again nothing on my car is good. Son Of A B!%CH

Sorry to hear this story, but it's all the more reason for me to bring it to a pro to get painted. Good luck with it bro, a messed up door skin isn't too big of a deal.

CAN NOT let that get messed up, and i yelled at him.lol. im pretty edgy since this is the nicest this thing car has e-v-e-r looked.

i was always told that you cant back up with a car on a tow dolly, just drop it off the dolly and push it (if it doesnt run) dont bother to ruin your car or your truck or the rented tow dolly

sorry to hear about your ride good luck with it
