i think i may cry.
my first car was a '92 mustang LX conv. 5.0. had it for a couple years now, and well.
TOTALLED.
gotrammed from behind sitting still from a woman in a ford explorer (on a cell phone) doing 40-45. pushed me into a kia, and then into a CTS-V infront of them. i ended up ONTOPof the kia, and my car is toast. so much work down the drain in an instant. sad day today. RIP 5.0.such a pretty car.
correct me if im wrong, but insurance MAY give me blue book price on it, if that. and blue book for 5.0's is extremely low compared to the demand for the cars. so i'm expecting to be royally screwed by this ordeal.

RE: i think i may cry.
So how much is the damage? Post some crash pics if you can bear it.
Had my 93 since 97 and has been in two accidents. The last one (Sept 11, 2001 to) bent the front frame rails and tore up an inner fender apron like it was paper.Estimate was $8,000 and change. Totaled. Stangwas my baby and i just couldnt part with her. Scheduled for the crusher, man i couldve cried. Got her fixed up and shes still on the road today with no problems. Only took $6500 (still niot repainted)to get her up and running. I love my baby. Her day will come but im not giving her up just yet.
Wish i could save em all. Can you save yours? If not, keep those pics you posted. Your baby was a beauty.
