Glad she and the kid's ok. :rock:  Anyone got any more details on what happened?
Title: Re: prayers for gngal!!!
Post by: tb3 on March 27 2012, 03:16:19 PM
she was side swiped by another car.  they hit the front driver side hard. I think her and her daughter just have cuts and bruises.  she told me she crawled out of the driver window and passed out in the street, woke up later in hospital. 

I'll text her to give us details when she's feeling better.  I think she had just got back from her visit to Chicago that day also

If I had her number I'd call to chat and check up on her. :icon_smile:  Just glad to know her daughter and her are ok though. A car can be replaced but not a life. Hopefully it wasn't her fault and can nail the idiot to the wall.

I'm not 100% on the situation.  I think there's a chance the idiot that slammed into her didn't have insurance. fortunetly, it sounds like she has good full coverage. 
she's already talking about trying to find another one, I told her to relax and worry about getting better first, lol!  there are still quite a few of these cars out there for sale everyday.
I'm gonna tell her if it makes her feel better, she can come help me with putting my 84 back together, every spare minute I have has been going into working on that thing.  God I hate these cars

Some one here with out insurance means that they came over the boarder and are going to bolt first chance they get. :013:  Make sure she gets a chance to know the value of the car before insurance tries to settle though, otherwise she'll get screwed on value. :icon_evil:

It's good to hear she and the kids aren't seriously hurt. Keep the updates coming.

I'm glad they are OK!
That's why I have Agreed Value Payout on mine. I have to get it appraised every 4th season but well worth it! On paper here my car is worth ZERO Dollars when I get a Govt. Sellers Package. I get more for it stolen or written off than I'll get selling in todays car market.

 Hi all, Thx for the prayers and well wishes. It was a rough weekend. We are both home recovering. Other driver was cited, but thats all I can say right now. Still waiting on my insurance co to evaluate damage. It's in a super secure lot, so I do sleep better knowing my baby's not getting stripped. We just got back fm Chicago and a friend mentioned a local car show... I thought it would be a great way to wrap up the day.  :(

Cars and men are always replaceable-cars can be difficult, tho :D.  I'm glad you all are okay.  If you have to start over, at least you now know how to do a lot of things that you will not have to learn the hard way.

Great to hear all is going as well as it can.

I hate to see you start over agan with another car but I'm very happy that you two are ok. I also noticed you are already looking for a new car again. :rock:  Hope to see you up and driving in the power tour once again. :atbeer:

Well if you're not there it won't be any fun so you better get to it and find another ride. :rock:  I might just try and bribe you with some of my smoked ribs or hot links, along with true Texas hot sauce. :atbeer:

I saw it yesterday.
the frame is bent drastically on both sides at the front, and the whole front half of the frame is pushed over several inches.  engine is unharmed.  intercooler and Maf intake is toast. 
I told her the max buy back amount from the insurance I would go is $4500.  the car had been in a accident prior to her and the doors never would line up correctly anyway.
she could get her wheels back that she likes so much ($500 a piece) and salvage a few spare parts, and then make her money back parting it.  the drivetrain is fine. t tops and interior, dash, all that is fine.   no rot in the doors or quarters that I ever saw.  th dp, etc....

She will do fine..

Aside from the mental and physical damages - she may end up with a better TR!

Wreck ems pair of cars are still an option..take the best of both, resell the rest
Title: Re: prayers for gngal!!!
Post by: Charlief1 on April 04 2012, 10:17:02 AM
Just happy she's ok, and there's enough cars out there that she should be able to get one at a decent price. There's even a few rollers needing engines if she feels like putting her driveline in another one. :rock:

I was thinking about that scenario.

I assume she has to wait to see what the buyout / payout from the insurance company may be. She might be able to get an even nicer ride.

I haven't been on the Buick sites much at all lately.  Sorry I'm late on wishing you well in this unfortunate situation.
