The car looked nice, but please keep things in perspective. You still have your health and you can get another car. One of our members at Super Stallions of The Net lost control of his 96 Mystic Cobra in the rain last night and lost his life

I'm sorry to hear about that man.

I was really down about my brother, but then someone pointed out that he very well could be dead. At least he has a fighting chance.

Man, BowTie Eater, Very sorry to hear this-- really sucks! Did you post a thread on how this happened? If so, point me to it or just tell me here. You are kinda scaring me b/c I have put a LOT of grueling hours into my car as well and I don't know if I could bare theft or totalling the car right now. Glad you are okay.

Yeah, I gotta agree that life and health are pretty damn important, but losing a part of you that you poured so much love and soul into, not to mention blood, time and money, makes it difficult to enjoy that life and good health. But hey, at least you have the option.

Nice pics.

Take care,
~Chris

Marty, i met him at the Mod Motor Shootout in June. he was a pretty funny guy. i really didnt get to know him, but i can see what people meant by "always put a smile on your face". just ask Topless about him. she met him too. nice guy.

anyways, Bowtie, did i miss your thread on what happened? if not, clue me in. sucks when you put your hard work into something you love and it can go down the schitter in a heartbeat(sorry, no pun intended!).

Man i'm glad to here that your allright. I also have what seems to be a cursed car for me. I like the car and have a **** load of money into it from a screw up i made just before christmas. live and learn though right. Its wierd. I am a really sane driver and don't take any stupid chances but I always seem to get into wrecks.

Did you buy it back from the insurance company? might be able to part it out and make some of the money back. maybe keep the engine, tranny and rearend and put it into a ranger?

Don't let it keep you down. I was in depressed state for a few weeks after i wrecked mine.
I know you were always so proud of your car. It was a nice car and I'm sorry to hear about its untimely demise. Go test drive an 02gt and do a remeberance burnout.
