Well a few weeks ago while the wife was driving it She apparently was hit in the Drivers side rear Lower Quarter and wheel. This happened at a BK drive thru...of all places.

Anyway the damages came to roughly $3300.00 and that's if they can fix the wheel instead of replacing it...:mad5:

What kills me is the chick that hit the car was pulling out of the drive thru talking on her cell and wasn't paying attention. My wife was just driving by the drive thru not thru it...lol

Anyway, I dropped it off at the body shop this morning and they gave me an 02 z28 to drive until it is fixed....

Thats a good body shop to give you something to drive. How much damage was done?

:iagree: Was it a Chevy dealership or what? Interesting that they gave you an older Camaro to drive.

Nah it's not a chevy Dealership...Just a body shop that does really good work....THey rent some of the cars that they have for sale and he said he couldn't see me going from a vette to some little econo pos...So he threw me the keys for the Z28 instead...what do I care the other drivers insurance is paying for it anyway...lol

As for the damage the Right rear wheel is bent, the rear fascia is fubar and so is the inner fender. The wheel Hub is damaged and the U-joints on the Right Drive axle are warped...
