Awesome! I dig it!

[sly]

kinda just turned out that way as the badge for cut up (was already broken) was shinier than the old one.

[Hearsesrock427]

Oh yes. Been waiting for the Mad Marquis' finishing touches! Love how the MAD part is shiner than the MARQUIS part. You know where to put the emphasis!

[tjc78]

Love it

[sly]

dun du-dun dun DONE!


Now I need the truck bumper, all black and diamond plate and bars and stuff.

[sly]

yup.

preview of things to come...

Get junkyard parts and paint to match, put as much of that as you can in savings.

His insurance acknowledged it and paid me just under total for it (so I don't have to do that BS paperwork again). $1500 and change when I get the check in the mail (should be today). I'll probably order parts unless someone can come up with a white 88-91 MGM header panel. The vic panels won't work because the grill is a different size.

That's quick! Doesn't sound like you had too much grief - that's a good thing!!!

Btw sucks about that little accident, lucky it wasn't too bad, could have hit the wheels and cracked the rim or ripped the tire.

I need to get a dash cam for my cars. People try stupid stuff like that all the time, they think they have the right to move over when they want and you're obligated to let them over. I can't believe when people do that to me in a box truck and especially tractor trailers.

Hope that guy acknowledged he was at fault, if not he'll have a tough time disputing the video.

That the alley behind your house? Do you stand there after work and drink beer?

yes and no. I work on cars there. We drink "beer" (or whatever) inside the garage or house while sitting on comfy chairs. There is no standing.

[HiFiMerc]

Yup, Mmmmhmmm. Yep. Dang ole, yo man.

It's not one of my panthers any more... soon there will be a new thread for this car, I'm sure.

Post this in my RR so I can link it elsewhere.
