Yes it may cause issues in the past. And a hip replacement in my older age will most likely be necessary either way...

Well... after her final "cruise," I've made the decision to have the camaro brought home and stored in the garage until its time to break it down at the garage. Just don't want it sitting outside at the shop as winter approaches and being in the way as well as a constant concern... with snow fall and removal... dishonest people in the area... mice and other bugs and stuff finding home inside her... having the engine unprotected... etc. So she will be home one last time till its time to dismantle her.

Good call. You can get the windex out and clean up the engine. That's what I would do. LOLQuote:

Blahhhh... well good news and annoying news. Just got the call back from the surgeons office. No negative displacement, and signs of healing are there. Thats the GOOD news. Now for the annoying part. Still have the same restrictions... No weight bearing... No driving... till next appointment for xrays to monitor it. Now the most annoying part... Next appointment is 4 MORE WEEKS!!!! So Im on "house arrest"for another month minimum.

These are just pics of our car club... the pics dont do the decorating much justice... there was a fog machine inside and in front of the car along with strobes and zombie dummies... blood splattered and bloody handprints under the car. All in the name of having fun at the Boyertown halloween parade. Several hundred entrees in this parade... it was huge!
Anyways... thats it. 2moro she swings thru cars and coffee then comes home for the time being...

Sound like you have a great plan. Remember the hip. Take care and don't let the process for your situation get the best of you stay strongQuote:

Could have been better for you and worse for the car if the impact was allowed to crumple car more. But, its just spitballin.
Be happy you didn't have a roll bar and a cracked head.
I said the same thing to my wife... prob woulda split my head in half with a cage or bar.Quote:

So many variables... i think im in for a big suprise when we pull the seats and carpet... i think the floor is gonna have one hell of a story to tell.

It's really depressing that I posted your build thread on another forum to help someone understand what it takes to build something like this, then I curiously click on the last page since it's different since the last time I saw the thread, and wow. Dude I'm glad you are alright, but forget losing a dog or a cat, that's painful, but this is so much worse, it's like you were riding your dog and it died, you saw it die, that's painful. I applaud you for allowing it to be a organ donar and allowing its bits and pieces to help the lives of friends rides, it'll live on forever.
Hey man... let me start by saying it means more than u could know that u shared my build thread to help someone else out.Quote:

Everyday I go in the garage and close my eyes and wonder what could i have done different to try to save her. Not that it changes anything, but even though I know there was failure of some sort... I have been adopting more of the blame myself... that I didnt do somethi g right.
I know we all think we are good drivers... but I have done extensive training in EVOC as well as certification as an EVOC instructor. I know I know what Im doing... and yet... its a persistent nightmare.
I was lucky that I insured her the way i did, and I am lucky to have her back in the garage with the powertrain hopefully unharmed. So it makes me happy to give away whatever I can to help others.
As u know, this forum... this community means the world to me, and Id never try to prosper from it. I bought into it to help others amd to keep a place for our community to remain alive. So handing stuff away for free... or even at a loss . Is still a WIN for me. And ur right... there is a feeling of satisfaction knowing that she will live on i many other peoples rides.
If u dont mind posting a link where u shared my build, id love to see some comments and zid be happy to give some input to anyone who needs the direction who are trying to do the same.
Thanks again for the kind words and ur right... other than the loss of human life... this is the most depressing situation Ive dealt with in my 40 years of life that has happened to me.
Thanks man.
