T Boned by a drunk driver

[JjohnsonRx]

so friday night the only car i've ever had feelings for was taken from me
the only thing left of her is the Hard Top that was sitting in my garage :/ check out the pics of the damage

 

[FrankBarba]

This *****....I do hope the person will be able to pay for this.

 

[BlackSnake99]

Sorry, dude. Hope everyone is ok.

 

[Vic]

ARRGGGHHHHHH!

Hope you sue the crap out of him. That is, if the loser has anything to sue for.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Vic in Irvine

Hope you weren't hurt too bad - that one looks like it would have been painful.

 

[JjohnsonRx]

All this mess... and its a hit and run !?!?!?!

 

[dave6666]

Dibbs on that window regulator

 

[Martin]

If it was a hit and run, how do you know the other driver was drunk? Did they eventually catch the scumbag?

 

[V10SpeedLuvr]

1st off all, I hope you're ok! That really ***** about your car! Please tell me you got out and beat the drunk into a coma with your lug wrench?

EDIT: it was a hit and run? Hopefully karma will bite him in the ass

 

[JjohnsonRx]

me and the cops are just guessin they were drunk cuz it was 2am friday night and they took off

 

[Vic]

where did it happen?

 

[PatentLaw]

1) Hope you are ok.
2) I am sure the police will be helpful.
3) Good luck trying to get the **** (jerks) responsible.

 

[Roffle Waffle]

looks like the car held up well enough. thats good

 

[Goehner]

That *****. Hopefully all will be ok with insurance and they catch the A__holes.

 

[MY600HP]

Very sorry about that, at least you are OK - tough little cars. Are you sure the guy wasn't from CARB??

 

[HPmopars]

Ouch ! That *****!

Can't believe the door glass didn't shatter!

 

[NorthernSnake]

You know...i obviously **** big time that this happened.
but looking at the car...it looks like it held up to impact real well from a driver safety point of view. some of the lines of the body dont even look contorted.

If i'm right it makes me feel just that little bit safer in mine.

Hope everyone is ok!

The number of times these posts come across and everyone survives amazes me, thank God Vipers are built on the same line as the M1A1 battle tank!! Glad your around to enjoy the next Viper!!!

 

[Tusc]

Glad you're here and still able to post.

Might try cruising the parking lots of bars in a 2 mile radius... you may find a vehicle with a dented nose and red scuff marks. You might also check the parking lot at the local high school. Last tip I'd try is to put out feelers to area dealerships. If it was a newish car, see if anyone is ordering new headlights/fascia/hood.

Don't put faith in the police finding them. With no fatality and not much to go on, they're not going to go knocking on doors.

Did you get a look at the make/model/color?

It looks like the insurance company will declare it a wreck. I've read that others here have had positive outcomes from similar experiences when they've spoken to JonB for advice. Best of luck!!!

 

[eucharistos]

stinks for sure

 

[viprvenm]

Hope all is well with you & yours. Cars can be replaced!!!

 

[ViperGTS]

What a bummer! Glad to see that YOU are ok. Most important.
The rest is just a pain in the a**

 

[Ricketts]

Man, that *****! Atleast your ok, hopefully they will catch the person who did it.

 

[Shandon]

Im not an emotional person but that brought a tear to my eye! Sorry for your loss! That ***** so so bad!

 

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

That hurts. Sorry. 98?

 

[MTGTS]

sorry to hear what happened but glad you are ok

 

[mjorgensen Woodhouse]

Sure are glad you are OK, People are just unbelievable these days. What if you were really hurt and they left you there to suffer, man that is messed up. Had to be a kid, I would hope a adult would handle this different.

Good luck with the insurance thing and hopefully your quest to replace your baby.

 

[white out]

That car did a great job. Glad that you are in good shape.
Viper's are replaceable, drivers & passengers are not.

+1 for doing a little investigative work on your own for the driver. Calling up body shops will probably get you the furthest.

I have ZERO tolerance for things like this. I just read this post and it make me furious that these things happen. At least you are ok. If it were me that got hit, I would be in jail for ******.

Good luck

Sorry to see this, but at least you are OK. You can always get another one.
