RIP to my dad's baby

[SlowLX]

Looks like he lost control on the slick roads this morning heading to TMS. He's supposedly doing alright though getting himself checked out at the hospital. However, his first classic he built back in the late 80's early 90's has seen better days.

Not cool. Hope he's ok.

I hope that he's alright. Sad to see the car messed up but it looks fixable.....he's probably been wanting to make some changes anyway.

My brother and I have been trying to get him to repaint it for fucking ever. He wants to start from scratch with just the chassis and do a coupe, dunno what he plans on doing with the body.

DR said he's aggravated an old spinal injury but nothing threatening.

ouch...hope he's OK.

and i wouldn't consider it totaled, looks like you can fix that.....

It's surprisingly ok. He reinforced the roof and sides with extra steel when he built her back in the day.

Glad he's good and it look rebuildable to me.

[talisman]

Very sorry about the car Spenser, but the important thing is that pops is okay. Man, that sucks. Maybe it will get him re-interested in rebuilding it or building something new. It doesn't look unrepairable.

Screw the car man, it's replaceable. Your Dad is lucky, glad he's ok.

[Chili]

Glad he is doing okay, sucks about the car. That is my only fear with buying / building an old car like that. I would always fear wrecking in it, with less than stellar safety standards.

My dad had a 58 Chevy PU for years that I also drove a fair amount. It had low-back buckets, no seat belts, and a ton of steel and glass surrounding you. I was always a bit nervous driving that on the freeway.

[sspstang]

Wow, that is terrible. I am sorry, but glad he is ok. Cars can be replaced. People can't.

[kobuzz]

As said above the car is replaceable. Your dad isn't. Glad he wasn't seriously hurt.

[tribaltalon]

dang that car held up like a champ. a modern car would have been crumpled like a mofo.

Material things can be replaced, I hope your father was not hurt to bad. Gob bless!!!
