This is known as being pulled out in front of!!

 

damn mini vans.....that sucks man! get another pic it is hard to see!

 

 

i put everything into this car!!!

 

but seriously that sucks

 

time to total it....

 

looks like someones gonna get that 4" Cowl hood after all

 

3!

we hit so hard it sunfaded my front bumper in an instant

i'm not at fault though

 

Well i guess this is gonna be a long summer!! WTF!! We will figure out ........ I really cant wait for the vaction!

 

man that sucks bad man, so what are you gonna do now?

 

curl up in the fetal position and die///....then contact insurance tomorrow morning..................................................and eventually she'll be fixed......hopfully by 3GF damnit! can the core suport be replaced?!?!?

 

dont give up just call them up and then come up with a plan of attack to either get this car fixed or get another TA up and running with your lt1 by thirdgen fest

 

Dam that sucks. Could have been worse. The core supports are not bad to replace. But if u are doing that at home. I would take it apart and take it to a bodyshop to let them pull it first. From the looks of it its down and back. ( the upper rail and lower one) If thats not pulled out were it needs to be.U are going to have a hell of a time lineing the hood up to the bumpers and fenders. If u want i can get u frame specs so u can mussure it out. Let me know.

 

eh... after taking a real good look, the whole front of the car will have to be replaced. everything is destroyed... thinking about finding a decent trans am no motor/ trans and taking the fenders and whatnot off of it...

this better be her fault!

 

might look worse than really is. These cars are made to chursh up like that. Once all the bent parts are off they don't look that bad.I can show u pics of cars that looked so f'ed up that I have fixed.

 

post some up....make me feel better

 

That sucks man.

I had my 87 442 ko'ed in the rear from a retard not paying attention.

Start finding parts now and fight with the insurance slappies if you have to, they dont like people who argue with them(hint)

later

frame specs would help out....i'm gonna start tearing her apart this weekend... send em along if you can. Hopefully i get my money soon...found a rust free white 88 body...so as soon as my money is in...the car'll be back on the road.

 

Execellent, and are you going to be using the LT1 in this one?

 

man, I feel your pain. But dont worry. I did this:



And now I've got it almost completely fixed. For only a few hundred bucks. And that includes the paint I have sitting in the basement, waiting to be sprayed, AND the extra 50 bucks I spend on a shaker hood scoop that's in the mail... I managed to REPAIR that huge tear in the bumper cover. You'd never know it's there. And the fender? I couldnt find a Trans Am fender in the JY so I got a Firebird fender, and I cut them both in half and welded them together so I would still have the Trans Am scoop.


Good luck.

 

that really sux

 

No, everything under the hood is intact....the LT1 is gonna have to sit till i have the money for all the parts i need

 

Have any pics of the new car? If you need any help with anything and im free then LMK. If you want we can get your new TA undercoated (i have a gun youll just need to pick up some por15). I will be free during the week but not on the weekends until the third week of may lol.

 

Have yet to go get the new car... i'm gonna have to wait for the long drawnout process of the other insurance company getting over here and giving me an estement... as for the help...good deal, i can use a hand tearing down the front end, i'll let you know.

 

to late for the teardown....got er done tonight...pics in a few

 

Lookin Better!!!

 

when are you getting the other parts? this weekend?

 

ahhh man that don't look bad at all. I thought the core support would be all bent up.

 

oh it was....by about a foot, and it had a nice fold in it. We used a hydrolic...dealy to push it back out. As soon as my check gets here, the the new parts will be on the way.

 

that hydralic do-hickey was one of the most amazing tools i have ever used! that core support was pushed back in no time.....ok 5 hours....but in body work time, thats no time. not to mention that the car was mobile again in short order! plus we got sympathy chicken legs from your work! remind me to give council a call about the donner T/A.

 

not to mention my bad *** sawsall! until the blade broke
It felt good to beat the hell out of the fender....released some stress!

 

Are we gonna start tearing it down this weekend? or did not cut you a check yet ? i am so confused!

 

we did a good job reshaping that hood to alow more air flow......

 

well... we beat the hell out of it just to get it back on the road... waiting for the damn police report, for some reason it hasn't been filled out by the cop, and she didn't consider it heavy damage, though it was totalled out. And waiting to find out how much its gonna be to buy the car back.

so far plans are:
4" Cowl Hood - 450
Front tires / allignment - 375
Doner T/A from portage - 500
Paint / Paint supplys - 250

Time + money = Pain-in-the-***

No Way it'll be looking nice by thirdgen unless they cut the check this weekend!!!!

Paint wise, I still need to find someone to blend the damn fenders and hood!!!

 

nice is not nesesary......we could drive it to tgf as is. you might even get sympathy parts that way.

 

hahahaha, it's still fast, maybe i'll win best of show for the custom ram air?

 

well, we can hit it wit a hammer some more after the Tiger Army show if yall want... i could also get some airbrushing practice in while she's beat up.

 

i can blend it all out for u. I will be in need for some air brushing. When i paint my camaro. Sure we can work out something. But can not do it before 3rd gen

 

deal... i just wanna get it back together before the show... no rush on paint

 

ok i might be able to swing by if u need a hand. Welding it up did u understand them frame specs?

 

i never did get to see them, but its all good, the frame didn't take the hit, it was all upper damage on the core, the bumper, and the body. but yeah, i'll let everyone know when we are gonna do the big switch over from the doner car, it'll be a while before i know what the hell the insurance is gonna do

Thanks to everyone with all the suport and help so far, gotta get this machine pretty again!!

 

you really should get that 87 firebird, screw the fender vents. but thats just my opinon, besides Coult said it might have rust in the fender that council did not notice. ethier way, we need to turn your car from Pretty ugly back to pretty asap. hard to crusie with out all three of us.....

 

Eh...uh i donno that 87 was pretty rough i would work temporarly, but he probably wants something that would be more permanant

 

why the hell would i get the 87....no ground fx dents and enough rust to go around waste of gas

 

sorry to waste your gas......you forget i never saw the car! just trying to help. didnt know it had dents, rust, and no ground effects. i thought you were just holding out for fender vents.

 

no big deal.... at least you found 1

 

we need to high way pirate some parts yarrrrrrrrrr.....

 

..........

 

gonna junkyard hop the day i get back
