Unhappy Somebody backed into my GT this morning.

Got up this morning and my mother tells me she's got some bad news.... . "Your father backed into your car."

So now I gotta make an insurance claim against his insurance b/c he for sure doesn't have the money to pay for it out of his pocket. Feel kinda bad doing it, but hey, that's what I got full coverage on the car for (I ain't paying all this insurance money for nothing!) If his insurance goes up for this, then.... well, what can I say.... His driving record is near perfect if not perfect so I don't know how much it will go up. I still feel kinda bad about doing what I have to do (hey, he's my dad and I still love him) but I'm pretty sure there is no other way. PISSES ME OFF! Why don't people pay attention to what they're doing (i'm in a bit of a ranting mode......)

Anyway, here are some pics. I'm kinda glad though it was the '92 and not the '79 b/c I only have liability on that car and that is my true favorite anyway. First one is a pic of the car with no dents. Last 3 show the new "mods" on the car.....

At first, I only noticed the paint scraped off the side of the bumper trim. But when I looked again, I saw that the fender well lip area had been dented and the paint chipped all the way off to the bare metal. The metal looks all shiny and brand new (looks like aluminum). You should be able to see it from the pics. That bare metal showing is about 2" by 3/4" dimensions.

...problems, problems, problems.....
