Good grief Eric. You should let us locals know when stuff happens.
I gave up calling you cuz you don't call back.
Anyways, sorry to hear about the car. Especially after all the work put in. Let me know if we can help.

Man that Sucks!!! How'd that happen? Are you gonna fix it, or is it beyond that?
Not to sound like a vulture, but let me know if you decide to part it out.
Or, like Rich said, let us know if we can help if you decide to fix it.

Sorry to hear about your car...
And can I ask why you decided to have a run in with a concrete wall?

Actually I Have To Blame The Soft-Ass Suspension. I Came Over A Rise On The Highway And Was Changing From The Left Lane To The Right And The Car Bottomed Out. The Best I Can Figure Is That It Hit So Hard That The Front Wheels Left The Ground On The Rebound And I Was Still Trying To Complete My Lane Change, When The Wheels Came Back Down, They Were Pointed T The Right And Hooked Me Into The Concrete Dividers...It Sucked Bad!!! Spun Three Times And Each Time Around The Wall Smacked The Front Of The Car.
