Well today started just like normal and I was kind of excited for the day off. I was searching craigslist and found an hardly used Mac Tools utility cart (mb80uc) for $25 and I jumped on it. When I went to pick it up I was amazed how clean it was and also more amazed by the fact that the guy only wanted $25 for it since it retails for $140. I jumped on it.
So then tonight at around 7pm, I'm sitting at my folks house on the computer, and hear a boom outside. I am currently not staying at home and I am house sitting for my parents.
I open the front door and see that my car has moved ~20 ft and I see another car that is all smashed up. So the guy who hit my parked car, must have came flying around the corner and hit some slush and boom, wrecked my car.
His car was a 2006 Chrysler sebring, his whole front end was damaged and he blew both air bags. My car, looked ok from my door but upon closer inspection, it is in a mess. Both of my headlamps are broken, both of my fogs are broken, lower grille mesh toast, bumper toast, and possible front driver 1/4 panel damage. Upon starting my car I notice coolant leaking and immediately shut it down. I also can't post pics since I don't have the cord for my camera.
We did the fun exchange insurance info, etc, blah, blah, blah..
How does a good day turn so bad?????
Luckily no one was hurt.
Hopefully his ins company doesn't want to total my car, I personally don't want my insurance involved if it doesn't need to be.
So i guess everyone knows what parts I will be looking for and please respond or PM me if you have them for sale. And I'll keep you all posted.
I don't want this SVT to go to sticky heaven and I really don't want to part it out since it was almost complete. (please don't pm me asking for parts from my car untill I say that I am parting it out, if I have to)
