Crashed my car. Wed, 29 December 2004 08:06 Go to next message
Hey guys. I Aquaplaned in the wet and the cars taken a beating on the LHS. wondering if anyone wanted to post some photos? before and after.
Hopefully its repairable, will need a new LHS guard. howevernot sure if rear can be beaten back. The doors fine thankfully.
cheers, and feel free to shed a tear or two.. I know I have.

Hey dude,

That sucks big time! I know you've already been told this 100 times, but at least you are okay. I crashed my car 8 weeks ago into a tree, and I still can't walk. Even though you'll be spewing about the car for a long time, just be thankful you didn't have to spend weeks in hospital and you are 100%.

Does this mean we won't be seeing you at the meet in late January?

Tough break mate...and yeah, your Celica was a lot nicer than the TA22 I wrapped around the tree!

Ahh crap - no good mate Sad

i hate to say it but thats one reason i upgraded from a ta22 - they didnt like the wet all that much + down here if its not raining its pouring .

Hopefully though yours is repairable - otherwise i guess we start looking for another shell ?

Can anyone get some pics?

Me and a mate fixed some bad rear quarter damage for someone on these forums, I think anything is fixable, it's whether or not you have the money or it's worth it.

Afterall, you've spent a crapload on the car...is it insured? Worst comes to worst, you could get a "writeoff" claim, get the cheque and try and fix it for that amount.

Get us some pics dude..

well still not sure if its beat'n the dust.
And yeah, front end is very average in the wet. not sure why exactly. Could it be the .5deg Pos camber?

I've already found a good LHS guard, just waiting to get the car drivable so I can take it to the workshop.

And if its not repairable I'll be parting it out. As much as I love the car, its simply too small. I've been denying the fact that I can't fit in the drivers seat comfortably for too long.
But I'll find out soon.

I'll also need LHS indicator (front and side) fr Bumper. I may have the rest.
