Ugh! that stinks. Time to get out the tape measure and a porta-power. rack that frame back to square. Bet the Willys still won that fight. sounds like her car is toast.
Glad you're ok. that's the biggest pitfall of our hobby. Our cars are generally not what you want to be riding in in the event of an accident. Safety has come a long way over the years.

yeah her car had to be hauled off by a flatbed. i drove the willys home. i guess that makes it the winner. hahahahahahaha. had i been in the mg, things would have been very different i think.

You walked away and the Willys drove away....that makes it ok in my book....

 

[novelist10]

thats very true. thanks guys, kinda makin me feel a bit better.

Sorry to hear about that but you walked away, and the damage is repairable.

Serious bummer -- but glad you are okay.

My 49 Willys wagon has been wrecked far too many times.
Morons rear-end you (how do you miss a fire-engine red Willys Wagon with yellow flames?) or run stop signs and hit the quarter so hard it rips the axle off the springs.

BTDT.

Moron insured?

So how does this work with insurance, I'm sure it costs more to fix than they think it is worth.

 

[novelist10]

oh yeah, its a nightmare as far as insurance goes.
