    hope you find out who did it ...............if it gets crushed put them in there with it, sorry about the loss brother
     
  3. Man ....... I am sorry to hear this. As far as Im concerned the only proper punishment for the f**ks that did this is to lock them in a room , one at a time, with you and one of the products produced by louisville slugger.

    :af: :rant: :mad:

    There had been something like 75 people around to watch the show.

    and there won't be any "witnesses" and none of those 75 people could be bothered to lift a finger before the FD got there. to do so would have interfered with their "show". jeezus.

    this is a warning for everyone else though. rebuilding/restoring an old car and not getting full coverage insurance is not any way to save money. especially if you can't keep it parked inside someplace. there are too many opportunities for vandalism, theft and crappy drivers ( see that "little Cobra" video ) when you have to leave your machine on the street.

    BigBlock68 Love that old car smell.

    That really sucks and I'm sorry to hear it. I teared up a little bit reading that.

    One word comes to mind , sad . I do feel your pain . Back years ago I bought a low mileage 69 Olds Cutlass convertable . I worked on the car till it was just right , saved my cash for insurance and was driving it to pay for insurance .

    I almost got there but a punk in a Monte Carlo decided to turn left in front of me in a intersection and I T- boned him and totaled the car .

    I took him to court and the judge saw that he was at fault but he had no insurance and told me " you can't get blood out of a turnip " .

    That was a hard lesson for me as well . We insure everything with full insurance before we drive them and also while they are in any project stages as well .

    Sorry to hear of your loss . :rolleyes: :eek2:

    Went to the impound and we're already down 350$ for them keeping it. Not like they would send you a letter telling me they have it. No, I have to call them to find my car.. Idiots... Well, the pictures tells it all

    Engine might still be good, but what should I do with that? I don't really have any space for a spare engine.

    The fire dept opened the hood the hard way. Maybe that saved the engine, I don't know.

    The driver's side still has two good 15*7 wheels.

    The 3.42 posi rear is probably still good, I take it the sway bar is too.

    Maybe I should cut the rear of the car off, and hang it on the garage wall.

    The only real choice is to part out what is left.
