digitaloutsider Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 [sighs] Just read the AIM convo with Dave: PerpetualShock: PerpetualShock: It's so stupid, you'll piss yourself PerpetualShock: PerpetualShock: There's a 5 lane road down on bullsboro Gearhead43: in Newnan? PerpetualShock: And.. theres two turning lanes PerpetualShock: two lanes that go straight PerpetualShock: I was in the 3rd lane over, next to the turning lane Gearhead43: k PerpetualShock: The lane I was in ends PerpetualShock: So the only thing I was thinking of was getting in front of allen. PerpetualShock: I saw the turning lane lights turn green.. PerpetualShock: and i went not thinking PerpetualShock: ran into the trailblazer at like 15 mph Gearhead43: ohh man you were in the straight lane trying to go on a turn green? PerpetualShock: Yes.. Incredibly stupid.. Incredibly careless.. My insurance goes up for fucking up a TrailBlazer THAT STILL HAD DEALER TAGS.. And it ruins what would be a perfect weekend. Hanging out with a good girl-friend of mine, getting a job interview, going to a friend's to hang out and ride around in his GTP. My parents basically told me I won't be driving for a good long while.. Picture: http://www.shaunsite.com/fuckedgp.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gearhead43 Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 Just lucky you didn't get a ticket for that one.. Could've been alot worse. Anyone got a TGP/GTP hood for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psych0matt Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 yeah, i did that once... In my cavalier though :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutlessSupreme Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 I've caught myself almost doing that at least a dozen times in the past few months.. just not paying attention. I see green out of the corner of my eye (or top, whatever) and start to go.. I always (miraculously) manage to look up and check though before I get not more than 2 feet and manage to stop.

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 OH man that is bad luck!! First you smash up the suspension on that thing and now the front end! You can't kill a 3.1 w-body! Good luck on the job interview.. hopefully you'll start making some money and start driving again. Maybe buy a 94+ w-body with the better brakes!

dsgrntld187 Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 That doesn't look too bad compared with what I have to work with right now.. But like someone said good thing you didn't get a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian P Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 man if you wanted a smacked up S10/Blazer I coulda sold you my dad's '96 for $200. Bent cab and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsgrntld187 Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Why would I pay for a smacked up 96 Blazer when I could get a 99 Blazer with only minor front end damage and right side suspension damage for free? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian P Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 You will because I said so! Actually the truck was sold a year ago. But good luck with the '99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsgrntld187 Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Thanks man. I need to have it towed to the frame shop to have them straighten the bumper mounts and the frame and all that. I'd do the suspension work too, but I don't have time, and I need this before winter and if I do it myself, that won't happen. I have most of the body work here or on its way minus a hood. I'm going with a fiberglass ram air hood that has the WS6 scoops on it. It's actually gonna be functionable, and I'm either gonna build a custom air box for it or just put on an old school air filter (the big circle ones) with the K&N top on it and then make a plexiglass box around it.

And yeah, that's what my parents said, too. My ass is still in the driver's seat of my Prix. I'm sorry to hear about that, dude. Hit me up on AIM sometime tonight..
