Dude, that really sucks. I know the feeling. I remember when The Beast got backed into in the highschool parking lot, and the bumper of the toyota pickup (owned by a redneck) pushed the headlight back into the wheel well, I thought she was a goner, it took a lot of cutting and welding to bring her back. Hope you get a massive insurance settlement on it, never know how you can work things out with insurance. My sister's Ford Torino (I know, I hate it too) got caught under the edge of a semi truck trailor in the parking lot at shuck's. Pushed the quarter panel down and did all kinds of tweaking. I helped her harass the insurance company until she got $3500 for it, which is three times the worth of the car. So she's paying for art institute of Seattle with it, and I'm straightening out the car. I think she came out ahead on that one. ----- Original Message ----- From: Earl H. <mailto:earlh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx<mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2007 1:48 PM Subject: Death In the Family Yesterday an old and trusted friend met an untimely death while I was in California. Loosing a loved one is always difficult, but this one was a special friend. Dismemberment and burial arraignments will be announced. While I know all my friends understand my lose, flowers are not necessary. (Copious amounts of alcohol would help) My friend was a victim of a random act of violence. Some have called it murder, but it is plainly due to a stupid 16 year old having her head up her ass. The new trailer did survive without a scratch. So from darkness comes some relief. If anyone can recommend a counselor that can help me cope with life without an old Power Wagon, I would appreciate a reference. The deceased was my beloved 1971 Power Wagon. A very manly truck she was... She died in her sleep, quietly parked in front of my house. Earl ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
