SOB!! CAMARO DIED!!!!

[Chet Mo and the Camaro]

well took it too the shop it was at 3900 in damages, and there was carpet that HAD to be replaced therefore going to edge it over 4200(75%) and it is going to be totaled!!

Sorry to hear for your lost. That's a fine looking Camaro. You should buy it back from your insurance and sell its parts or rebuild it again.

[Chet Mo and the Camaro]

i am gonna buy it back someone wants to buy it from me after i get my stuff off of it and sue it for a race car but i am debating that vs. rebuild. probably gonna sell it and hopefully get a camaro or firebird!!!!!!!!

[shenanigans]

I say do the repairs yourself...

Hey Chet,

Could you do me a favor and let me know how much they sell it back to you for? I'm in the same situation where I believe my Camaro is going to be totalled and I'm curious as to how much they're selling back for.

Thanks

i figured it would get totaled out. it really shocked me in the last thread when you said that it wasn't. but its alot of damage so you have to expect it.

collect your check and get another.

[Fbody3400]

^^^Yeah, I had a feeling it was gonna get totalled.

[Chet Mo and the Camaro]

yeah it got totaled by like literally dollars!!!! or is getting totaled!! i will find out for sure tomm. or monday!!! i will have to get something around 6000 ish!!

i really really want a 98+ firebird w/ gfx!!and under 100,000 miles or even right around 100,000
because i am not gonna lie i beat the hell out of my motor(i took care of it but was hard on it) and never had a problem except alt bracket broke(30 bux) and i drove the car 30xxx miles in 1 year and 2 months

Chet, since we're in the beginning of the 10 year active hurricane cycle according to some credible weather scientists, I am curious to ask you what is your attitude for next years preparedness if by some freak chance another hurricane starts messing with your new F-Body toy in summer 2006?

[dmw319]

good point alex. haha.

Don't say that!! You'll jinx us all us (we?) Southerners!

I asked because I located a '92 Ford Explorer for $500 here in my hometown for a possible winter beater.

I live on top of a steep hill so that floods cannot get to me however as some of us Northeasterners know how our F-Bodies of any late year react negatively in snow.

And yes, that is my humorous yet serious question I had to post. I am so tempted to purchase the Explorer because of the price but the jinx will occur after I buy it lol.
I'm heading over with a pocketful of ca$h to see how mechanically sound it is right now.

I beg to differ. Throw in a posi defferential if you dont have one, and a good set of tires and the car can handle snow just fine. Perhaps its the driver? I drove mine through 3 winters without any incident.... and Pittsburgh isnt anything but hills.

What do you do when the snow gets deep though?
