Go around a turn coming down the mountain from a buddies house and hit a patch of dirt a bit fast about 60 on a recommended 35 and lost it and couldn't recorrect it and went up an embankment and popped the bead on a tire rear bumber ripped half way off and pushed my radiator support towards the motor about an inch this :q:q:q:q sux ass
 
Sorry to hear about this. I thought all the bad luck was going stay in 2010 when me and Laser started it out with his wrecks and me blowing my car up in the garage but now it's carrying over into 2011. I'm not lecturing but 60 in a recommended 35 coming down a mountain?

Getting that core support back out where it needs to be is gonna suck. That is if you're going to fix it.
 
I appologize on the run on stuff...my nerves were still jumping a little wen I wrote it.... I did it about 10 min after it happened....well it wasn't a hard turn or nothing I used to hit that very turn at higher speeds than that just my luck I stab the throttle at the exit of the turn and bam there is dirt at the very same point.... and ill see the extent of it tomorrow in the day light I know the radiator support is in cause that weird EGR thing that connects to the exhasut in between the radiator fan and crank pulley is touching the pulley....

P.S. it wasn't on the mountain anymore it was the base of it so either way I wasn't rolling 3000 ft down a mountainside...... just up embankments both side would put me up hill from the road not down.... got lucky I didn't roll
 
Sorry for your misfortune.
not saying you did anything wrong but when you
push a car some times it pushes back. I bet you learned
A bit on how you car acts though and at least there was some
Fun. When I wrecked my 97 it was no fun cause I was sleeping.

Don't forget I burned mine up. :rolleyes:
 
I don't see that as bad luck but as bad judgment. Sorry to hear bout that but that can only be blamed on one thing. Sound like it will be totaled by the insurance co. Surprised no airbags went off.
 
sorry haven't got pics.....been crashed out......there isn't anybody damage except the passeger fender has a basketball sized dent in it...ill try to get pics soon
 
the last pic is of the brake lines and i need to replace those.......

OUCH...1 thing you could do is take out the fender liner and pop that dent out as much as you can..Looks like thats the least of you're problems though.
 
Update on the car is all that it needs now is brake lines to the rear....anyone know the size of the hardened line that is under the chasis under the rocker panel....ima make my own lines...
 
I believe it is 3/16 steel brake line. There is only 2 sizes it could be, 3/16 and 1/4, but I believe again it is 3/16.
 
Did not look at or missed that pic where the lines were hanging. I also believe those are your fuel lines too, not your brakelines.
 
It driver side member look at the pics the car is along side the house on the passenger side I can't get between the car and house to even get the pics
