Tweet

my first ride i got 2-24-04 was rear ended today

it was my first rod

1937 plymouth 4 door sedan

bad too

Hey mick Sorry to hear. What happened? Were you hurt? Hope the car can be rebuilt.

Man that sucks!!! and i know the feeling,my first car i ever built was a 66 gto and about 8 months after building it i got T-boned and it took out the fender/door/and rear 1/4panel. but after 2 months work it was back on the road.

How bad's the damage? hopefully your not injured and it can be redone

Sorry to hear about it Mick. By the way, when's the clown's funeral that rear ended ya?? How bad is the damage?? Hopefully the idiot had very good insurance and/or a great big checkbook, streetrods are not cheap to fix.

I once saw a guy that had a 38' Dodge ( I belive ) and, it was all custom and, when he drove out of the parkin lot he got rear ended, It did no damage to the body but, it bent one end of his custom bumper up and put a v going down, not in, in the bumper. I saw the car again at the same car show and, he fixed the bent up end but left the V because it was dead center ( wonder how that happened ), and made it look pretty cool, he had it rechromed also.

Bad news, hope yer O.K.

Yeeeeup, My 66 GTO wuz sittin' across the road from my girfriends house. Some girl pulled into the driveway then backed into the dr. side door of the goat. Got the door & Qt. Panel. pushed the car sideways 'bout 12''. I just overhauled it, didn't even have the hood back on yet.

To top it off, girl said...... well at least it wasn't a NEW car.......!!
Powwww..... To the Moon Alice

sorry to hear that ,
i had a accident in a blown 41 willys about 3 ys ago .totaled the car . ejected me and my buddy about 25 ft from the car . riped the body off the frame . spedo went 7 houses down the street and hit a guy in the leg!
lucky to lived , build them safe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me and 2 other guys are living proof that God loves a fool.

ya im fine the person hit me in the rear and ruined mny rear end alos bent metal all the way uip to the roof

she (the one that hit me ) was behind me as we were leaving school and the funny thing is that i had just waved to her not even 3 minutes before the crash

Well sounds like it's not gonna be fixable at least without "major" work mick really sorry to hear that,hopefully you can at least pull a majority of the parts off it for another car if you decide to build again.


P.S Doc that pic of the crumpled 57' makes me sick to look at bud,i hate to see a nice car like that wrecked but at least your still around to show the pics!
