Ramsey Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Oh man, this sucks! I just smashed into the 270 wall getting onto 161 from easton area. The car is pretty bad, but i am happy to say im fine and nobody was involved but me. My neck hurts a little, but for car is a different story. no t-tops and hitting a wall at 55 was scary shit. Looks like i will getting rid of the car. Who knows tho i will find out come morning with my insurance. everything seems outta place and touching. my bellow is twisted and crunched. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/2_5.jpg?t=1188472762 http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/2_4.jpg?t=1188472853 http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/2_2.jpg?t=1188472924 http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/5.jpg?t=1188476722 http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/4.jpg?t=1188477185 http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y117/98dirtybird/2.jpg?t=1188477213 I have pics now i will be uploading soon. The whole car seems very tweeked. I feel as if i was in a fight, my neck is the only thing really bothering me right, i am going to get checked out today. How it happened. I was heading north on 270 toward 161 and about to get off, my t-tops were off and a shirt that was in my back seat flew up and i went to grab it and served alittle then over correct and the rest was history. after about 3 180s, then sliding sideways the front end hit the wall and spun me around i hit the wall again in the rear. I thought i was a deadman with dops off and i thought the car was going to flip, but i just flew up ibto the t-top cross member and smashed back down which broke the driver seat. when i was stopped i took the car outta reverse(dont know how that happened and slamed into park and restrted the car and drove a mile to my parents house. the car doesnt seem that bad for hitting a concrete wall.. twice. I have had a pretty clean driving recond before this; just a speeding ticket when i was 18. pics are coming. camera phone style but that is all i have with me. i will much better pics soon.

2pointslow Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Good to hear you're OK. Do not give the car up without finding out the buyback price.

Jelloman4571647545499 Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 that sucks. After an accident places in your body hurt that have never hurt before. Where is the car going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Glad you're ok, Kris. Really man, take it easy and reflect on the finer things in life. Lemme know I can do anything. Heed Eli's words as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbird Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Dang man, yeah kinda looks like my old camaro when something like that happened to me. Jacked up my rear axle, some good body damage, popped off some interior panels, threw off the alignment to the point where the steering wheel was a good 80 degrees off to go straight, and some other stuff. All that happened to me was a concussion from hitting my head on where the t-top and window meet. My car was totalled, but then again it was only worth 4k at the time. Best of luck with everything, and def get your neck checked out soon. Neck injuries arent something to mess with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 keep it and part it out. there are tons of people like me looking for doner cars for projects like mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supplicium Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Sorry to hear that. Seriously...go see a chiropractor! x2, and glad your ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpfiend Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Sorry to hear your pain- I did a similar thing in my '96 LT1 Formula- standing rain, hydroplaning rear end, attempt to correct, spin, hit wall, total loss. I didn't ask about the buy back but wish I did- I stripped all the aftermarket parts off of it in the gas station I hobbled to though and sold them for almost what I paid on eBay. I was extremely bummed/depressed for quite a while... Glad you are ok... Now start looking for a replacement-- Don't go for less than a v8 you will miss it. I tried to be practical and ended up giving the brand new 04 RSX type S to my wife that I had bought as a replacement and driving her '95 240 SX until I could sell it for a fox body. Good luck!

Amy Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Wow, sorry to see this happen. Like Brian said, glad your ok, and the cars can be replaced. Go to the doctor for sure though, make sure you are ok. So you don't have issues down the road. Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Beast Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Dang man! Glad you are ok!!! Like CamaroAJ said you can make so much money off of parting that car out (if it cant be salvaged). There was a thread on LS1tech that had 3 pages worth of offers in 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Steve Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Deja vu. I am glad you are ok man. I totaled mine when my car did the exact thing. Go to the doctor. You will have issues down the road if you do not. I thought I was fine and come to find out I was not. Breaking the seat can cause damage that if ignored can cause big problems down the road!

Minty Fresh Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Wow dude!!! Sorry to hear, but glad you're okay! It could have been a lot worse...glad it wasn't. I'd go to the doctor and get chacked out...sometimes stuff doesn't start showing up for days, even weeks. And P.S. If you end up parting it out....let me know.

Nitrousbird Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Good to hear you're OK. Do not give the car up without finding out the buyback price. +1 When my old S-Blazer was rear-ended and totalled, I bought it back, stripped what I wanted out of it (not much), and sold it for 2x the buy back on e-bay. There is a TON of stuff you can part out on that car and make some good money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted August 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 The adjuster is coming to look at it soon. I will give cr first dibs on the salvage parts and then ls1tech here i come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
