I will keep everyone posted. Probably be tuesday before we can figure anything out. Tomorrow is supposed to be really bad weather wise, so everything will most likely be closed. Don't want people out driving, someone may get into a wreck.

Looks very fixable to me. Estimates should around 5k+ for repairs 8k max depending on suspension damage and what they decide to do with that damaged frame rail. Glad your ok man.

Good to hear that YOU weren't totaled.
Just curious, was the TC on or off?
I hope they can fix it.
Good Luck.

And this is the very reason I did not go to work this morning...

Sucks bad to see this thread, your car was a beauty and I know you put a lot of time into it.

I'll echo the others in saying that I'm glad you're unscathed. That's the biggest thing

Any time you can walk away, it's a good thing. Cars can be fixed. Sometimes we can't... Good Luck.

Ice! nothing you can do about it. No grip, no hope. Micheal Schumacher would have crashed it too. Best of luck to you in your settlement.

I keep telling myself that.

Don't think it will be tomorrow that anything gets done. I was halfway through shoveling 8" of snow off our huge driveway, with a 30+ degree slope, when I watched my neighbors (with a level driveway) spinning all 4 tires of their truck trying to move. They gave up and went inside with the car in the same spot, and I put the shovel down and walked inside. I don't want to even attempt driving down this driveway when there may be ice on it.

This global warming is hitting hard down here in alabama.

I hope the Auburn BCS victory gave you some solace yesterday in your time of trouble.

Again, sorry to hear about the car, but glad you are alright.

I'm OK with losing another one of those noisy SRTs but losing a BLACK one would make me sad.

Hope you get back on the road soon.

I'm glad you made it out without injury.

I'm not surprised it only took until the 3rd response for someone to start hitting you up for parts. Man, what a bunch of vultures!
