Default Mustangs do not like ditches!!!

Bwahahahahahahahahaha!



You know you like it!

So... I swerved into a ditch to miss hitting a deer. I went into the ditch to avoid harming the car, then I discovered that this particular ditch had a covert in it. Yes steel pipes tend to mangle cars. Nevertheless, the car still runs perfectly. Anteee freeze went all over. [8D]

Negative!
I did it last night though. [8D]

Frame is bent/twisted
Already got new fenders, front bumper, & hood.
everything is already off. Took it to a shop to have it put on their framing machine. frame should be straightened out by thursday.

Already bought new paint & everything to prep it. I've been meaning to repaint it anyway. Decided to go with charcoal gray.

Ye!
I've been putting it off because I kinda liked the two tone, but it's been needing new paint anyway. I was going to do a lighter blue on top & charcoal gray on bottom. Just decided to do it all charcoal gray instead. Not sure whether to go with black bullitts or anthracite with a charcoal paint job. May be a bit much gray to go with anthracite.


Was pretty good though. My friend was freaking out bad. I was sitting in the drivers seat laughing. I ripped the fender off, ran it up to him & said "hold this!" then we took off to his house. Fixed the tire in his driveway, drove home & tore it apart. He was shaken up that whole night [8D]

Looks like his ditch didn't have a covert in it [8D] My passenger fender was completely destroyed. Look where the antenna is on it. was sticking out about a foot out from the door.

Damn man, you were better off hitting the deer lol. My dad always tells me to not swerve and just hit the brakes and if you hit it... you hit it lol. But damn that ditch tore your car up [&:]

Ouch!! Deer suck. They can end up in your lap if they hit the windshield just right.

While you are replacing that pass side fender anyway, maybe you could consider shaving the antenna?? Just a thought....
