8 Reasons why one alarm isn't good enough

Post by Dawn, Destroyer of Worlds »

Hi every-one.This is a sight that no-one EVER wants to see.This is what can be done to a car in a small Canadian city in just over 48 hours.So go on......get another alarm, rent a garage stall and get an alarm on that,too.Buy a rabid dog and keep it in your yard. We all try our best to protect our R's, but let me tell you, there's always more you could be doing.I still tear up when I see these.. :cry:

Do you have access to that? If so there is a bunch of money sitting...

Sad that that caR became another satistic (sp?)...

Time for a rebuild, it well within reach!

The people at our insurance company are idiots.They are low balling us by SO much that we are now in the middle of a huge dispute over not only a settlement, but for the remains of our car. They told us we had to go to auction and bid on her shell with general public, AFTER WE FOUND SOME OF HER MISSING PARTS!!!But we are going to do anything to get her shell back.We can't handle the thought of her being sold to anyone else,or worse.....as scrap metal.And we have complete plans to rebuild her as a track only car, because she was declared a total loss.But we're going to do it........ as soon as she comes up for auction :roll: :cry:

The front shock towers are cut in half.

Sad to say, that car is done.

Believe it or not,there are factory welds located on the floor boards and frame and above the "A" pillars and we've already found a shop willing to splice our car's mid and rear with anothers front to create one whole car.It's not exactly free but for $2500.00 it's worth it to us.

That's far too ghetto, IMHO.

It would be cheaper to get another shell.

Yikes!
What was I thinking... :oops:
That car is, well Done. I would not re-use that shell for any type of driving again. I did not relize that the front was cut like that.

As for the money sitting, Doors, Hatch, all the glass, plastics, bumper and anything that can be removed.

Yes, this is our car.They cut the car like that because it was the fastest way to remove the engine and all the other parts under the hood.Like I said before, it only took 48 hours to find the car after it was stolen, so they worked fast.

Gotta love how they show a close-up of the sticker that says the caR meets all theft prevention standards :roll:
That poor guy is in worse shape than ours (except the whole not-being-in-pieces thing.) Looks like they let it sit out side for a while, too. I wonder why the theives took the carpet but left the side skirts?Strange.The things I'd do to those #*%!#?@^! if I ever found them. :twisted:
