Looking at these pictures hurts but I am amazed at how together the cabin looks. Truly a strong car; you walked out of that accident, no?

Also, how did you managed to get a clothes hanger stuck in your roof? :P

That's tough to look at for sure. Amazed you were able to walk away from that shunt without being hurt. Any word from the insurance company as to how much they will give you as a write off value?

Question ..... it appears something impacted the passenger side windshield from the outside. Do you remember impacting anything ..... looks like something blunt, like a fire hydrant or something.

Good question. The kicker is that insurance companies do not compensate for mods, so thousands of dollars are lost there.

The steering wheel air bag didn't deploy?

I think Jeff Spicoli can fix it! His dad is a TV repairman and has an ultimate set of tools

Glad all are OK
