T/A got wrecked

[CrazyPete]

tonight i was in a accident leaving culvers i'll give more details later once all the details are worked out with the insurance and lawyers :(

[supercrackerbox]

I just got one question- Did she have any idea the value of the car she'd just hit?

[no318]

That's a bummer. Sorry to hear.

[6PackCuda]

Oh Crap! Are you serious? Really sorrry to hear that. How bad is it?

[CrazyPete]

thanks for all the comments guys everyone is ok the car well looks like hood,grille,bumper,the fenders( i think can be saved), took out the pass. door and messed up the rear fender,rad. support and who knows what else i didnt open the hood yet. This has been my biggest fear for the longest time so in the future i may need some help finding parts. I gotta wait and get a hold of insurance, and several bodyshops/restorers and a good lawyer.

[71blueduster]

That sucks. Hopefully you can get it all taken car of and the car put back together.

[6PackCuda]

How are ya doing Pete? Are you getting thing worked out? You've been in my thoughts a lot. I can only imagine what you must be feeling right now. I know I'd be absolutely devistated if that happened to me. Keep your chin up.

[CrazyPete]

im doing ok today was round 1 lol ive been on the phone most of the day with insurance companys/adjusters/bodyshops even getting advise from a lawyer. So far im still going its just really hard to relive the story every time i get a call. And today i had to tell it to some of my coworkers what happened and they were like WOW just WOW a few of them know how much i care about my cars and were treating the challenger like it was my kid. LOL!
Next im gonna work on getting the ticket dropped and hopefully meet with an insurance adjuster to see where i stand

[dstryr]

Wow, terrible news! I'm glad you are OK and wish you the best in getting everything straightened out.

[Hopalong]

Ticket dropped? That doesn't sound good. Hope it's nothing serious.

[Charger Chip]

Ticket dropped? That doesn't sound good. Hope it's nothing serious.:confused::shock:can you tell us more with pics ?

[427HISS]

Anyway, you'll get her back to pristine condition bud. Were all here for you !

[6PackCuda]

I know I was nervous as hell taking mine out today after what happened to Pete. I looked both directions at least 3 times at every intersection before pulling out. I want to see pic.s and hear the whole story too, but I'm sure Pete will share more with us when he's ready.

[CrazyPete]

[6PackCuda]

That just makes me want to cry.:(

[FairmontGN]

Well it's not nearly as bad as I had envisioned. That's good, right? :confused:

[Stein]

Make sure you check with me on any parts you might need! Is the radiator support a 22 incher or the bigger one?

[CrazyPete]

im not 100% sure i'll have to check im assuming its a 22" because of the sb

[Stein]

I have a 73 Challenger in the bone pile that may have a good rad support. Will need to check it out for ya the next time I'm at the farm.

[CrazyPete]

sounds great thanks buddy

[no318]

That could be ALOT worse. I'm glad that you are getting things worked out with insurance.

[Bryx512]

That just makes me want to cry.:(

I agree with Dave!
Any help I can be, Please give me a call!

[Charger Chip]

Glad that it will work out for you Pete, BTW, who do you have for your insurance? i have State Farm on both my cars 30,000.00 on both. I was just wondering if I need to change ?:confused:

[CrazyPete]

i have state farm and i'll be changing all my toys to hagerty very soon

[no318]

i have state farm and i'll be changing all my toys to hagerty very soon

Tell us more when you get a chance. I am with State Farm, too. What problems did you experience? Thanks.

[6PackCuda]

Same here. I'm currently with State Farm. I've heard a lot of good things about Hagerty though.

[Stein]

You got me interested now too. I also have State Farm collector car insurance, do I need to know more details of your experiences?

[spoolinhard]

That really sucks. You just missed a very nice origional T/A hood on ebay. Year one has beautiful reproductions which is the wasy I am going for mine.

[kgbodyshop]

We can rebuild it, we can make the first bionic Challenger! Better Stronger Faster! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39co0zKbQAQ Or at least make it original again. Sorry had a 70's flash back, won't happen again.

[CrazyPete]

lol as long as we keep the bill under 6 mill i think we'll be ok

[FairmontGN]

Man I loved that show!

[69fstbck]

i have state farm and i'll be changing all my toys to hagerty very soon

Good move Pete!!!!

We have always had Grundy's World Wide on our cars!!!!!
Hagerty's is good as well!!!!!

[Charger Chip]

Pete can you tell us what kind of experience you had with State Farm?
I have all my insurance with them, home, business,cars, and collector cars but I would like to hear of the problems that you may have had with them or anything that you would consider positive. Every several years my wife and i evaluate our insurance just to make sure that we our getting what we pay for. Thanks

[CrazyPete]

i'll talk about it at a later date

[Charger Chip]

i'll talk about it at a later date
OK:) Makes me wonder about alot about State Farm:confused:
