sorry to hear about the car but it looks like they did a phenomenal job on it

Yea I hate drivers that merge at the wrong time. Especially at double lane turns (left or right) when they decide for some ridiculous reason to merge into the other lane WHILE TAKING THE TURN or not staying in their dotted white line lane, almost side swiping me. Happens almost every time at this one particualr intersection in town.

Clear bra applied, all decals back in place. On the first set of rally stripes, installer had a little trouble with them and accidentally tore them when trying to stretch them. A bit of a scramble to find another dealer in the area with another set on hand (the first set had to be ordered from Detroit as no local dealer had any on hand). Better luck with the second set, though.

Replacement chrome billet plates for inner fender panels, "CAMARO" badging, and last bit of "cleanup" to be done between other projects at the shop tomorrow and Thursday. (A local radio personality's Shelby Mustang was vandalized pretty bad and is going through a similar repair process). Planning to pick her up on Friday

:happy anim: ! It's like waiting for the railroad delivery - just counting the hours now.

The end result - recreated by an amazing auto body shop (M&M Auto Reconditioning - Aurora, CO), Spirit is once again on the streets.

55 days, $9600 in body damage, an amazing rental (thank you, Avis in Castle Rock) that will cost the insurance co. an additional $2500 (I did put a little mileage on that SS 'vert - 6,241 miles to be exact), life is back to normal again.

Thank you ALL for your love & support through this entire process. You made the early days easier to get through, and the long wait bearable. So many of you I've never met, but by owning this car I feel I have a second family in you. You're the greatest!
