Author Topic: Well... the SS got rear-ended Friday night CK-1 99SS 2nd Gear Member # 93 posted                       Well like the title states I got rear-ended cruising around. It seemed that an F-250 used me to stop when I was already stopped. My bumper and back end got crunched in and the tow hooks on the truck peirced my back end and his bumper hit my Camaro valance and moved it and everything else behind it in at least an inch down and in. Now my hatch doesn't close properly and is way out of whack.. I guess luckily my 2 rear quarters didn't get crunched or creased at all. It looks like I will be without a car for a couple of weeks this summer.. and to top it all off the truck had zero damage on it.. I am alright and was a little stiff the next day.. -------------------- Curtis Knops www.thefbody.com My website Stage II milled 6.0L heads Thunder Racing TR224 Cam LS6 Intake Jet Hot LT headers, no cats Magnaflow Exhaust 12.4@116.4mph on BFG G-force KD's 6spd, stock rear...

I was rear ended at Carlisle, PA. That was on June 13th (friday the 13th) and I still don't have my car back. I'm getting her fixed right so that takes time. I'd rather have her fixed right...than fixed right now. Plus I'm having her totally painted I didn't want them to do any blending and have it show in a few years. Here's my webshot page so you can see my damage. There was more under what you see. Good luck with your car.

I have an appointment this Friday to see how much damage was done. I do have a body shop in mind and they specialize in Mercedes and Porches and I have talked to them and they said I can pop in anytime to see how things are progressing.. -------------------- Curtis Knops www.thefbody.com My website Stage II milled 6.0L heads Thunder Racing TR224 Cam LS6 Intake Jet Hot LT headers, no cats Magnaflow Exhaust 12.4@116.4mph on BFG G-force KD's 6spd, stock rear...
