Thanks Baz, I didn't realize how really bad it was until I saw the transmission and a mark in the fuel tank because the tranny hit it so hard, fortunately, not hard enough enough to puncture, but close..this picture is really eye opening, no wonder I can't remember anything

And that was one of those trick torque tubes

Transmission destroyed.
The insurance company picked her up today, very sad day for me.

Lovely color, Petrol Blue? Glad YOU are recovering, that is*most*important. We still got ya!
Someone will Cellette that back in shape I bet.
Byron, do you take trades?
Amazon Green Metallic.
Thanks, but remember a few years back, she took a hit on the other side in a track incident, my former business partner was driving then.
Again, thanks for all the positive vibes, I can't wait to get back on my bicycles.

Byron , On the road to recovery a stationary bike is sometimes a good place to start, that's what the DR recommended after my hip surgery. Either way, some time on the bike is always a good thing.

They don't allow you to weld together 2 or more cars to make one anymore.

I almost bought a Carrera that had buckling at the foot pedals. Glad I found that.
A Cellette might have gotten that out.
