Poor Old Mikes car has it's future in the balance.

Post by 912uk »

Mike a US owner had a bad day and hit some black ice.. his car a sweet and well sorted out law managed to bring them Tim and Mike to a safe stop but in doing so was then hit by another car ( mini Van ) finding the same black ic, which pushed his car over the edge.. :cry: :cry: :cry:

not so sure how this can be fixed but fingers crossed a cheque to cover the car is one thing.. when it's part of your life it's just so much more than a cheque.

I hate to say it but that looks like a do-over ...easier to start with a new donor and strip all the good bits off of it .
Its hard to see any ammount of pulling getting that straight
