Y'all won't believe this...pic up

[majspud]

After the Demise and Resurrection of Fahrvergnügen three weeks ago, I thought life was settling down again. I got my '55 Pontiac back last week, fresh off a two month, $3K overhaul. I was turning into a physical therapy appointment from the effects of the last accident prior to going to my first cruise night in the '55 when I was rear-ended by a large SUV. I wasn't knocked out, but was out of it for a while. I was transported to the hospital AGAIN, and a Cat-Scan AGAIN, and an x-ray on my right wrist. I escaped with whiplash, and a bruised right shoulder, elbow, and wrist.

I haven't actually seen the damage yet as I was still out of it while lying on the backboard (AGAIN), but the wife thinks its going to need a rear bumper and trunk lid.

I can't catch a break. There goes the weekend; no cruising, and no range trip with the Vetterli and trapdoor.

Pics to follow at some point.

Helluva start to the holiday. Sorry to hear it!

 

[noxin]

Damn dude, do you play the lottery too?

Glad you're relatively okay (ie : not dead!) and hope you recover quickly.

 

[xtry51]

I think you should spend some recovery time playing scratch tickets with that luck.

 

[NTMAREMACH]

Sorry to hear, glad you weren't seriously hurt.

Helluva start to the holiday. Sorry to hear it!

No kidding. Glad you're okay OP. Wow.

 

[VTHunter]

Sorry to hear and hope you have a speedy recovery.

Perhaps you might consider a Humvee?

 

[BTSDOG]

Lawyer up, you got rearended, you should be able to get something out of that ....

 

[martin08]

This stuff has got to stop!

Glad you are able to post about it.

 

[samandglove1]

No more cars Tim. You're walking from now on....

 

[MAGG]

[knoxy]

Damn, that's a real bad streak. Glad you're still in one piece.

 

[mclina]

Sorry to hear that. I hope you are OK, and that the texting-woman that hit you is insured.

But seriously, I hope you are OK and your car get's properly fixed on their dime.

 

[NickyBangBang]

That's sux bro feet well soon

 

[PATRON]

Dam, you need a witch doctor someone has done some bad voodoo shit on you. Good thing your ok.I would take up walking for awhile if I was you.

 

[JuergenG]

Damn, again? Hope, you'll feel better soon.
Now on the ambulance chaser and see what you can make out of the rear-ending.

 

[oldyankee]

Sorry about your misfortune. My wife always says that such things run in threes. I hope that is not true in your situation, but taking up skydiving would probably be a bad decision at this point

This happened right across the street from the Doctor's office where my wife is practice manager. He was one of the first on the scene, stabilizing my neck.

Oh, the humanity...

[Maninblue1861]

Ugh glad your ok, who ever hit you should get a public lashing for f****** up a classic car..

 

[jpm]

oh that picture makes me so sad! Glad you're ok though. I wonder what the other car looked like? Must have been moving to do that much damage to something that solid!

 

[kelton]

A speedy recovery to you and your beautiful 55

 

[bostonasphalt2]

Lol at the people suggesting to ambulance chase this. Ye ale sure anything medical is covered as needed, but that isn't ambulance chasing. Chasing is far worse and far from honest.

 

[stinger35]

That truly sucks. I have an older car and it always amazes me how close people drive to me when I'm in it. Bumpers and deck lids aren't down the street sitting on shelves.

Wish you and the 55 a speedy recovery.

 

[Fixxah]

You may want ro drive faster.

-Proud to be dad every day, a licensed plumber most days, and wish I was a shoemaker on others.

There are times you can only go as fast as the person in front of you.

There are times you can only go as fast as the person in front of you.

or as the car will permit.

 

[Big_Red]

Damn dude, that sucks. Here is to a speedy recovery for you and your ride.

 

[Mudfish]

That car is so small I can totally see how people driving behind you just don't see it.
