Lady crushed my cobra

What do you guys think about them piecing it back together. Would it hold up the same if it were to get hit again?

I had a hit like that in my first Mustang. It all depends on if the frame was bent, at all. Do you have a shop picked out? If not, let me know.

if done correctly, and no frame damage, its just like it was before.

now if the unibody or frame gets fubared, even if fixed, its rarely ever the same.

looks about the same damage to my 01 gt, airbags and all, even the engine was hit (accessories only) and the damage was about 11,500

Sorry bro!

Ouch!!! Good to hear that you, and your son, are OK!

Start do***enting everything now, (Police report, appraised value of your Cobra). Most of the "Budget" Insurance Companys will try to "Low Ball" you when it comes time to write a check, if the Car is totaled (That is one of the reasons they can charge low rates). Consult with your own Insurance Company on appraised value and/or reputable repair shops. They have a vested intrest in this too, (A happy Customer is more likely to renew with them!).

If Her Insurance Company is reputable no harm done. If they start playing games with you, get serious, and show them you mean business.

Good Luck, hope this is resolved quickly.

I would rather have the rear of the car smashed than a smack in the front. I think it would be ok if a good shop put it back together.

That blows, Aaargh Another fine Cobra !

got under it. Frame damage pics posted up top. Red line is midline to subframe. I tell you what, the MM k member is one stout piece. Doesn't look like it phased it one bit.

Sorry to see that, you'll be collecting a check for that given the looks of things...that is a total for sure. I can't imagine them not totaling that thing out.

People need to learn how the hell to drive.

That sucks...

I have a buddy here in Chandler with a 03' SVT Convert and it had a similar wreck about six month ago and they fixed it up pretty good.
