Almost Finished My Car

I haven't posted in a while and here is why.  On the way to the alignment shop, less than a mile from the shop, an elderly lady turned left in front of me and I couldn't stop in time.  Prior to this is was an original paint/original sheet metal car.  








This comes after installing a freshly rebuilt 8.8 out of a 95 Mustang, UMI rear control arms, rebuilding the A-arms with urethane bushings and urethane sway bar bushings and shock mounts.  Yellow Koni shocks with Mach 1 coil springs.  I swapped in the Mustang spindles in the front with new wheel bearings, urethane rack mounts, new inner and outer tie rods ends.  I rebuilt all of the Mustang calipers with new rotors and pads.  I finally got to bolt on the wheels that took 6 months to get here and after an at home alignment job I drove it about 100 miles before this happened.  Now I'm in a battle with her insurance company to not total the car.  
It really isn't that bad and could easily be fixed.  I pulled the front fender out and drove the car home, it doesn't leak anything.   

Here is what it looked like right after I finished it.  I think it could have come down a little more but it was an improvement.  The car rode and drove amazing and I was really looking forward to getting a proper alignment and being able to drive the thing.

Well hopefully you get it back to the way it was...

Dang, That's so hard to see that.....

 I have a hood, front clip and both front fenders if you need them.  PM me if you're interested.  Remember, I live in Raleigh.  I also know someone parting out one who lives in Michigan.   Let me know.

Wow and I know that feeling. I got hit in the rear on my 87 thirty days after I got it.

Must be something with a Silver Coupe and 5 lug conversions ?

Back in 2018 I paid 3000 for mine and drove out to California and towed it back to Texas. It was total 30 days later and I got all my money back so I bought it back for 400. The funny thing is I just order a lot of parts from Stinger the day before. Took it to a Body shop and said do what you can for a 1000.

Give it some time, it will get better !

Why are all the silver cars getting banged up?

Not long ago another Silver TC caught on fire too.

Sorry this happened to you and your car. Glad you're okay, though.
