That really SUCKS!!! I liked(the pics of ) your car A LOT!!! I would feel just as sick as you are right now, I'm sure.
I felt that way when I wrecked my '57 Chevy years ago. I was 16 andhad wanted a '57 (focused on itin fact) since the age of 10. I was sick for 3 days afterward, so I think I know how you feel.

But (BUT!!!) I am so glad that YOU didn't go down w/the ship. Though it will be hard and not the same, you can replace the car. It's expendable in the end.

But as Mr. Miyagi said, "Licencenever replace eye, ear and brain." I am soo glad you're OK.
Now "Go find de' balance!!"

Yeah, I'm glad I'm okay, but I feel terrible, especially after a whole week of ordering parts and working on the car to make it look perfect, then destroying it 3 hours after I had it back from paint.

If I could get another rolling Chassis, my best bet would be to swap the motor and all into it. I might just sell it to a friend.

After all the work you've put into it, I'd say strip it and rebuild!!A rolling 7 chassis couldn't be that hard to find, can it?

SORRY to hear that! and as everyone said at least you are o.k. you can replace cars but you can't replace people. The re-done paint job looked amazing! I hope you will be able to fix everything
