Nice to see the hood pins did their job, lol.

Seriously though, I think I would need to be on some medication for a while if my car was wrecked. People don't understand how personal these cars can be.

Hopefully some good will come out of this...either new mods or a new car. Only thing you can do is look for a silver lining.

Cars can be replaced! You and your girlfriend can't. Make sure if you need to go to the hospital that you go, that's what insurance is for.

Looks like a bad one, but a good excuse for a 5.0 liter

Thanks for all the support guys. While a 5.0 would be nice, I doubt I will get that kind of money lol. It'll most likely be towards a GT.

Let me give you some advice based on my own experience as an accident victim: If you even suspect that you might have a whiplash or neck injury, go to a good chiropractor or doctor and GET IT DOCUMENTED right now. Often neck problems don't emerge until months later. You may need physical therapy or worse. Don't base this on how you feel right now. I had a guy rear-end me 20 years ago. It was a severe wreck but I didn't go to the doctor because my neck hurt just a little right after. Months later I started having problems but I had no recourse. I've suffered with neck problems for the last 20 years because of that wreck. Do this!

Thanks for the advice atldave. I'm meeting with my doctor tomorrow as well as with my lawyer to see what kind of legal action I can take.

im guessing his girlfriend wasnt in his mustang, passenger airbag didnt deploy, so either she wasnt there or sensor is broken.

anyways, glad to hear your ok, how fast did he hit you? ive always been worried about my mustang being hit since aftermartket and all, fill me in on how collecting for aftermarket parts go. just be glad your ok, if he hit you on the other side you could have smashed your head against the window and this could have had an entirley different ending.
