i have been building a 65 long bed rat for about 2 mounths and the day it is finished(if they ever are) it got totalled here are the pics lift a pint and cry not for heaven awits her and the stoker motor i built is fine no one hurt either
everyones fine but that was a speacil truck had the old shop signs from the orig**** owner and he wanted to use it in an ad for his company he is cool old guy im so ****ing pissed and the worsty part is i wasnt driving i lent it to a friend he got in the wreck
Beat me to the punch Sincerely sorry to see all that work end that way but more importantly you are OK.
Its time to make "frankstein" even "EVEL'r". Bet your friend isn't feelin to highly of himself. That ****s man! Sorry to here bout this.
well you had fun doing the first Frankentruck , get busy and build "SON OF FRANKENTRUCK" and let your friend do the bull work and the dirty work BUT don't let him test drive it !!!!! party on
so whats the scoop? i think the buddy needs to be rebuilding that bad boy for you from his pocket book. Or he better have bad*** insurance. I pay extra for the coverage ihave, but mine covers anything I drive, and the vehicle I total if the accident were my fault. will
actually he dosent seem to intrested in helping fix it just getting my insurance card to get out of his ticket i dont know whats gonna happen
Guess you found out how good a "friend" he was......... Sorry to hear about the crash, but luckily, no one was hurt.
thankfully everyone was ok. What a **** of a friend to not care. Hey, can I borrow your next one when you get done with it?
It always chaps my *** to find out about a friend like that. It makes me feel like a dufus. Have a bud for quite a while, then something happens and they turn out to be a ****, but you hadn't noticed. You think to yourself, "And I hang out with this guy??" ****s about the truck bud. I agree with that other post, make another one, SON OF FRANKENTRUCK.
in the first pic who's truck is that in the lower right hand corner? that ****s! what did he hit???? snowplow? he needs a ***-WHOOPIN!!!!
I was the one driving the truck the day of the accident. The initial cause of the accident was a mechanical failure, and was not caused by negligence on the part of myself or the other driver. It appears that a ball joint failed, and threw me into oncoming traffic. I am thankful that the man and two children who were driving in the other vehicle were not injured. I am a little banged up but will make it through. It was an unfortunate thing that happened, and I know that the truck was special to Jim. I hate that I was driving when it happened. I hated even more having to call him to let him know about it. I will be helping Jim yank the motor out, and get his new project on the road and how he wants it. My insurance has told me that they do in fact offer secondary coverage on a vehicle I am driving so It looks like Jim might come out alright on the deal. I know it does not get him his truck back, but at least its something. Driving someone's vehicle always opens you up to some risk. This time it caught up with me. I feel horrible about it and wish it had happened differently. The accident damaged the truck so bad that it curved the dash and we were unable to get the glove box open to get to the insurance verification. I was issued a no insurance ticket at the scene. Just trying to keep from getting my license suspended at this point. Jim has picked up another project, and I will be helping out with it. I think it will end up being a far more solid project in the end. I'll let him unveil it thought If Jim is OK with it I will post up some pics from the accident scene.
Poor Jim - you made him so sad he's not feeling like using any periods today... LOL! Just kiddin', Jim. Man, that ****s, dude. Hopefully the insurance company payoff will cover at least some of it... ~Jason
i need to clarify bentley is a good dude his insurance will pay me. he is gonna help get it stripped and i already got a new truck that i will post later. it is gonna be bad *** and we are gonna put the stoker in it and good willing it will be at the round up
