Topic #45119 53 posts Started by NgoFcukinWay
i was talking to my bro-in-law and he said that this marks #8 as to how many times T-Spoon's been smacked while it was sitting still and it just might be its final one....

Sorry about your car man, that really sucks.
Good luck on getting the All-Trac or a Supra.
Don't worry Alex, we will get you a bigger and better car. If lil ol T-Spoon don't pull through its operation.
I'll be out today to go see my car's crippled condition. frown.gif I'll be sure to take better pics of what's left including the interior.

You know I think T-spoon is fixable. The damage was mainly the fluffy trunk not the unibody or the rails. Yes the rails in the very rear might be bent upward but not twisted. I bet the bumper bar kept them in line for the most part and just allowed the rear of the car to move upward, similar to my recent wreck. I think from the begining of the spare tire rack back is bad but fixable.

True enough. Of course the insurance company may not see it that way. Let us know what happens Alex.
yeah, i don't think insurance will repair it due to the age factor.

I feel crappier now. my TRD shift knob and my DCW triple gauge pod came in today, but I don't have a car to put them into anymore. frown.gif

Damn, Alex. Buying much stuff for the car lately? Maybe we should just start looking for a newer GT for you. Maybe Hatch this time? Let me know if you need help finding one or else unloading some of those parts.
You know you always have the option of salvaging the car and using the insurance money to repair it. Won't be worth anything if you try to sell it but I don't see you doing that anyway. To bad it wasn't the front that go hurt. You already have the parts you needed for that wink.gif
true that. i have an interested buyer that wants my gauge pods. i'm keeping the shift knob. There's an All-Trac in Sugarland that i wanna take a look at this weekend. sure it may not be as sexy as the oh so gorgeous 6gc, but it's got the power I've always wanted to put into the car.

all-trac?

Yeah, i'd say go for the Celica All-Trac. That was also my plan for another project car in the future, but I changed my mind and plan on making a full drift SW20 MR2 when finances are stable again.

all-trac?


For gods sake yes and get it to my house ASAP so we can go over it with a fine tooth comb. My last Celica should have been an al-trac [had the choice between an red '92 al-trac m/t and a blue '95 6th gen GT auturd - chose looks over what I really wanted rolleyes.gif Turbo AWD] and your bro had that al-trac abd both of us kick ourselves still for what we had.
Just get it - there's no car in the world like a GT4! Not Supra, not MR2 - nothing.
You can help pitch in to get me one till insurance comes along. lol. The dude wants $6200 for it, but David thinks it's worth less (~$5500) cuz it doesn't have leather seats, the rear bumper needs a repaint, and it has 155K miles. David's All-Trac when he got it had a very clean paint, leather seats, and I think something like 94K miles and paid $6700 for it.

IDK about the paint but it was def worth the price. That's only a $700 diff. Maybe he will go for it. he mileage is a little scary - has the turbo been rebuilt? I can loan you a Turbo so you can drive while one is being rebuilt if you want.
I'm at a lost now. I don't know what to do. I'm about to cry. I just got a letter from Geico that said:

"We have completed our coverage invertigation for the above loss. Please be advised that there is no coverage for the above referenced loss under our policyholder's Geico Indemnity policy. As such, we will be unable to make payment to you."

I don't know how to feel right now. I'm pissed off, I'm sad, depressed. I don't know what to do....

Well, if her policy doesn't cover that, which I don't see why it wouldn't because even liability only would, I'd say take the owner of the car to court. Don't let this drop mang.

Ugh, I have a bad feeling that she was NOT cited and the cop left it up to insurance to fight about it. That's why I was asking you whether she was cited or not. In any event, should be able to sort it out, just won't be as smooth as could be hoped for. Don't worry, call you after a bit. Some insurance companys are pretty ****ty about that sort of thing, either Geico is one of them or they have bad info that we'll have to get corrected.
What is the spoons status?

she's still crippled in a body shop. frown.gif I got the letter from Geico telling me to **** off. Told my agent who's covering it to fax the letter to him, so now i'm just waiting to see what they'll do.

I had an accident last October and I had my insurance take care of it for the simple fact that Allstate refused to do anything until they heard from their client which he never contacted them til this day. So now State Farm and Allstate are fighting with each other and I am waiting on my refund of my deductible.

So g/l man.

My mom was in a similar incident, she stopped, but the utility van behind her couldnt get stopped and a brand new volvo behind the van didnt even hit the brakes. The other insurance companies were arguing about who's car did what damage etc. However, our insurance company cut us a check to get it fixed and then took the other 2 insurance companies to court. So hang in there man, ATLEAST at the very least, your still breathing and at the end of the day that is what matters. cheers mate
man, i'm praying everyday that something good will come out of this soon.
