Oh No!!!!!!!
If no note, get the vision from the parking lot security camera's. They seemed to be everywhere when we were in Florida. You have a unique Vette. Time to change or repair? Kneel. |

Cop out writing a report, witnesses saw it happen, but I suppose they shouted her to stop, wife took pix of her truck with tag # , when I got permission to leave I found out it's a 21 page report, and it takes TEN DAYS to process it, I pulled up to the cop as he was continuing on with her, and asked him to write a ticket good for 6 months in jail..... he smirks and motions for me to leave....
Note that it was a Blue Dodge pickup....maybe ~4 years newer than the BLUE DODGE pickup that hit wife's son in his '96 Silverado.....and took off running hit and run, costing us some 2500 bux outta pocket.....it shot a stop sign at speed into the left front fender, one nanosecond later and it would have killed Dave......driven by an illegal, THAT much we know, not that the cops give a shit...... |

Did you find out if the beotch has insurance Gene? man....that's gonna be a lotta dough to fix that right. I can see why you leave it at home most of the time.
I only take my old 62 out for cruises, never for errands where I leave it alone, even for a minute unattended. Find the best Vette specialist body guy in the area and insist of him doing the repair. you might just get a whole new paint job out of it. |
