Crash photos

I posted some photos of my sons totaled 85 300GD in the Albums under CEOG, Bad Day. Today Seattle Times had a headline story, "Insurers heavy with profits, light on payouts, study finds"

Re: Crash photos

Man that sucks. I just hope that your son and the other people involved were okay ?

I got involved in a fender bender on the 23rd. The other guys fault, so it goes on his insurance. I just got the verdict from the workshop - around $3100 in parts. New fender, front wing, flare and oil cooler. Luckily, the speed was low, so no damange other dan the bumps and dings in the cars...

Re: Crash photos

I read your other topic yesterday regarding the whole incident. I am glad to hear your son is doing well and was not injured. I am sure a lot of credit to that was due to the sturdiness of the G.

As for the G, what are you planning on doing with it. Is the frame damage very severe? That looked like a great G, especially the nice paint job.

Re: Crash photos

that was a good looking G. is that just a regular intake or is that turbo model. I don’t know a lot about the old ones.

If you get another old one look into stated value, or declared value.. Then you will not have to fight with the insurance people if you ever have another loss.

I like you learned the hard way when I destroyed a 67 corvette… Erie insurance seems to think a frame off car is worth about $6,700 bucks 

I have a good spare chassis that needs a home.....

It's a RHD and has no title, but it's here and it needs to go.  Conversion to LHD isn't difficult and I'd darned near GIVE this thing away.  As with all G chassis, there is nearly no rust and what's there is cosmetic spots only.

So if someone wants a re-build project, we can help!

RE: I have a good spare chassis that needs a home.....

My insurance company says I can buy it from them for $6,000.00 US Dollars ,but I have to let them know by Friday the 13th (creepy) so send me a PM if you are really interested in Frankensteining with hipine's spare chassis.
