It'll buff out... I hope
 

Waiting for the claims adjuster from my parents home owner insurance to swing by some time today... Helluva way to end your pre-deployment leave...:cry:

Pretty sure there will be a part out thread in the near future. The car wasn't insured and was only out of the garage this week because I was working on one of my motorcycles, I had talked to my dad only minutes prior about putting it back in when the entire branch collapsed off the oak tree in our back yard. What a nightmare

Pouring out a quart of 5w-30 for the fallen brother.

that sucks Alex. Is it your tree or the neighbors tree? Homeowners might cover it if it is the neighbor's tree.

That sucks. Sorry to hear alex

That REALLY SUCKS. It looks like a total, but I can feel for you when it's your baby and an act of God sends it to the scrap pile.:rofl:

Wow, that sucks. Sorry to see that happen to anyone, especially to a vehicle you really care about. I hope there is an upside to this story in the future.

Dare I say "bent pillars = instant total"

damn man, i always liked that car. At least no one got hurt, thats always a plus

**** man that is terrible. Your car always looked great, such a shame to see this.

holy crap i cant believe that...one of my favorite 4th gens ever too. horrible to see it like that...what a shame. hope it all works out for you man.

ps) also be thankful you werent in the car moving it when this happened..

Wow, that sucks. Might as well save the drivetrain for another project since you know the history of it.

Really hard to see these pics Alex. Is the roof a really bad fix? Seems like a lot of it could be repaired without much trouble.

wow man what a shame! This was my favorite 4th gen period!

I know its early and a low blow but pm me a price on the z06 wheels and tires.

****, ugh...man still from Saturday about this.

wooow thats brutal hope it works out in your favor

Man this really sucks to see. The was one of the cleanest LT1 4th gens around

saw it on FB yesterday, and still cant believe it.

when i had my LTx car i wanted to do it exactly like you. car was a beautiful work of art. if you even need a hand with taking apart or rebuilding just message me on FB and ill be there anytime, im only a few towns over.

...8(

Saw the pics before on FB as well - made me sick to my stomach, cause I know a lot of blood, sweat, and tears were poured for this car. :( Best of luck with the situation!

I also agree with Jeff - keep the drivetrain for another toy down the road. It's a damn good combo to swap into an S10 or G-body.

holy crappppppppppp! this is terrible!

luckily i was at work or my blazer woulda been parked in the driveway where a tree landed, and i duno how the vette escaped harm, it was completely surrounded by fallen trees

NO F'IN WAY!

I loved that car, everythign was just perfect.


Even as it sits now it could still be next months COTM IMO

Had to.

On a side note, I'm sorry that happened bud, that is a sweet ride. You could always just hack off the damaged roof and make it a convertible.....

my sisters old 02 Camaro had a new roof welded on, i couldnt figure out why inside the Ttops was silver and the car was black, pulled the interior panels and saw the welding, turned out when i ran the carfax it was involved in a roll over! that then explained the oil in the air intake

body work is still better than mine too...
