Re: Well I wrecked it :(

Are the fenders even damaged? Looks as though its only the hood and grill. That sucks that it happened? How bad did the other car look?

Re: Well I wrecked it :(

Yeah Both fenders are damaged. It pushed the core support back in to the engine and wraped the radiator around the fan. The other truck wasnt that bad, it was a 4X4 chevy and all what i did was bend his bumper and a small dent in his tailgate. I was so lucky it didnt have paint, Just last week i was going to put it in to the shop and start working on it. well its in the shop now.

That sucks... Shame, I have a perfect hood in the same Medium Olive as your truck is along with the bumper. Just got rid of the grille...

Re: Well I wrecked it :(

Be happy it was a truck you hit and not a car. The frame has pretty much no protection.
Double check the front of that frame before you start spending money.

Re: Well I wrecked it :(

Sorry to hear about that, it does suck, too bad you're so far away, I now have a good spare hood, rad support, decent fenders, from where I was hit in the side in my 72
