IM crushed about this one guys. this car has taken blood from me in the years panda has had it.
http://i883.photobucket.com/albums/ac32/Ha...0210001704a.jpg http://i883.photobucket.com/albums/ac32/Ha.../0210001704.jpg he was sitting at a stop light a and truck came up behind him and rear ended him which you can see. the fun part is that after hitting Panda the truck sled into the ditch and then took off. The car next to Panda saw the guy run and took off after him for Panda. The guy chased him through stop signs and traffic lights for 30 mins just to get the guys plates and a discription of the truck. lets have a quiet moment for a fallen comrade.

A bowed head, a moment of respectful silence, a shot will be poured, & a shot will be consumed.
Is he too hurt for rebuild?? Sorry it happened!!! |

Judging by the way that the trunk and rear quarter panel are bent in, that frame is f**ked. I don't see how that's rebuildable.

My condolences and deepest sympathies; that's damage no 6gc should ever experience.
I agree with Ferdi - that's total frame damage from the looks of it...better to get another Celica I than to try and repair that I hate to say. Best wishes and good luck. -------------------- Has no more Celicas

  That's too bad. At least that guy chased the truck down and got the plates for you. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates. Even Socrates told us to use the search button!

It's not cosmetics we are talking about. It's the underlying frame damage that will be the end of this car. Unibody cars are like a piece of paper. They are fine until they get crumpled up. Then you can do your best to straighten it out, but it will never be the same. I hope for the OP's sake that there is no frame damage. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
