Thanks Eric. That will only make me more addicted than I already am to these cars.

Looks like I will be getting most everything back (including both expensive pistols). No mention of the laptop or camera, but all of the silver dollars, Mint proof sets, watches, jewlery, etc. This is turning out to be a good day after all.
Praise God! I am so happy and relieved for you. That is so cool that you'll be getting most everything back.

No damage to the hood? It does not look so bad after they took of the fender, and front skirt. I like the temp wheel, good welding

No damage to the hood or in the engine compartment. The damage is really alot more than you can see in the photos.

Bet your CAI would kick butt right now!!! Though I wouldn't want to go far on that rim!

There's probably quite a bit that needs to be done with the suspension; control arms, spindle and bearings, steering rack. Any idea yet if it needs any frame straightening?

Its amazing what they can do now to repair these cars. I've seen repairs that were better than factory specs, though we still see them as scarred in our minds.

According to Drew, they already had it on the frame rack and it appeared to be in good shape. 3-4 weeks is going to be hard to take.

How is your top coming along?

Give them the time to do the job right. You're still driving a Camaro right? Test-N-Tune this Saturday...:wink:

Should get an update from Peter today on my top. Its taking twice as long as planned, mostly because of sourcing the parts. Can't wait to get it back! My legs are getting tired peddling this Cruze around.

Think of it as "goog excercise", now that you're over the hump.
