Stationary targets aren't worth any points at all...basically, my cars were shuffled around the driveway, its hard to explain it if you havnt been in my driveway, pictures dont explain it well eitherbut anyways, my driveway goes downhill, then banks to the left, well, he was my TC wasnt parked in the normal spot, so he assumed i was gone, he came partway down the driveway, and saw my red bird off to the left down the driveway and focused on it while turning left, then hit my carhis vision isnt the greatest, and he's slowly getting tunnel vision (some of it is him not paying attention), so he just didnt see my car Quote Selected

That's still not as funny as my ex girlfriend that tore the door off her car while backing out of her driveway with her father watching. She had her door open and was looking back, and so nervous about her father watching, that she failed to notice she was too close to the house. As soon as the door made contact she panicked and floored it. The door was peeled right off. Luckily, it was only a Hyundai Pony... Quote Selected

You duct taped it back on, and the car still runs today. Good ol' Korean Chevette. Quote Selected
Re: When they say accidents happen close to home... Reply #20 – September 28, 2005, 07:55:14 PM Oooo that sucks big ones. If my dad did that to my car, he'd be owing me a new paint job. If you get the new door painted only, it will be soooo obvious that it will look rediculous. Get the whole thing painted the original color. Your interior is in great shape and the engine bay looks great. Slap paint on that thing and it would look awesome. Quote Selected

Reply #21 – September 29, 2005, 12:31:38 AM he's trying to dick me around nowif this shiznit doesnt get fixed, i will end up fighting him, he's ****ed me over so many times, my own father has screwed me over, i have ****ed up credit, lost two cars, didnt go to school, and a bunch of other shiznit because of him, and if he doesnt fix my car, i will seriously fight him, he's ****ed my life over enough, and a little corner light on his beloved 89 Tbird isnt the only thing that will need to be replaced after this incident Quote Selected

Reply #27 – September 29, 2005, 12:42:21 PM Quote from: CougarSEI vote on a baseball bat! :hick:it might come down to something like that sadly...my dad is trying to go cheap on me, he wants to rattle can my door and call it doneif i bring the insurance company into this, which i dont want to do because of the rates jumping up, but theyd see that no matter what, the door will never match, no matter what professional does the car, and almost every panel of the car is a slightly different shade since it sat out for years before i got itwell, the car looked fine, while it didnt look great with clearcoat peel, it didnt look like shiznit, and if he rattle cans the door, which he's horrible at anyways, it will look like shiznit, and its his responsibility to make the car look right, just as it did before he hit ithe ****s up MY car, and wants ME to take a loss? no way in hell is that going to happen, he even says "i wasnt paying attention", put that on a police report, send it to the insurance company, and it would be all his fault, especially since my car was parkedthis might be the last straw, if he tries to screw me over like he has been for the past 20 years, i might end up picking up and leaving, going somewhere, i dont know where, but he's helpless without me here, and i wont come and help him, because he wont fix what he needs to, he's more wrapped up in his firebirdmy car has a fubar'd door, and all he's concerned with is installing a radio in that POS firebird, a car that isnt driving, and isnt road worthy, but he doesnt want to fix a car that is road worthy and a daily driver that his dumb ass ****ed upi really pissed off, and this might be what makes my mom and I move out of here Quote Selected
