Had a minor fender bender a few weeks ago - my front bumper to SUV's trailer hitch. No damage to the SUV, but my mint chrome fender is toast, as is the hood. The body just behind the bumper is pushed in. It doesn’t appear to go down as far as the spare tire shelf, so I don’t believe the frame or alignment is affected. Headlight buckets are creased, left worse than right.

The repairs and fixes are looking good. Sorry about your oops.
I came about 1 foot from doing the same thing to my 71. Jumped on a 4-lane road here; going through the gears, got in the fast lane going fast and it looked like I was passing cars like they were standing still. Um, that's cause they were standing still. Then I noticed the car in front of me come to a complete stop. I jammed on the brakes, 2 or 4 wheels locked, and I stopped about 1 foot from the car in front of me. The "PO" from the Pontiac emblem is burned in my memory. I know that 2 or 4 wheels locked because the tire smoke caught up to me when I stopped. Your car looks nice. Got any before pics? |
