Front Damage

On the way to work this morning I hit a tire gator (recap from big truck) . Tore up the front left corner of the body work . I think it got the A/C condencer, the radiator, and don't know what else. The temp. light came on the guage pegged out and an alarm came on. Calling the ins. company in a little while. Will see what happens. Has anyone else hit one of these? George

George: Sorry to hear about that. Please keep us educated as to how the insurance co. reacts and how well repairs go. I bet parts may be hard to find.

Will pick up T-bird tomorrow. The repair shop found more damage once they tore it down. Ended up final bill $ 3800.00. Sure will be glad to get it home. Just in time to check it out Then a Holiday trip to Nashville TN to see the inlaws for New Years. GBSB
