This is the damage to the frame. Btw, that's not a hole, that's just a clean part of the frame.Comment

The horn is definitely bent. Look further down the rail for an disfiguring (kinks, etc). You could attempt to take some measurments. Is the other side damaged as well?**2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302: 5.0/ 6 spd/ 3.73s, 20K Cruiser

In that picture the piece the bumper bolts onto should be facing just about towards you...the other side is fine as far as the frame goes. I believe today John and I will be taking the fenders off to remove the radiator support... At the time we were going about 10-20, hard to tell cause of the somewhat sideways motion of the car....it must have absorbed a lot of the impact because the stop hardly jolted us at all. I was in the back with the lapbelt and some pizza's haha.-Phil

Dear Panthers,
Maybe 9 years ago I slow speed my 89 CP slid on ice and into the ditch. Should have been a fender bender but it broke the weakened (AC condensation) frame. Collision totaled the car but I argued that since I wouldn't use the rentacar part, I'd keep the title. Did. 91 front clip, hearse frame ( how many of you have 11 grease fittings?) Insurance also paid for an engine rebuild.
Four years ago I hit a deer in the first minutes of a trip to South Dakota. Wired the headlights up, went to SD, PeteV8 supplied the new snout.
A couple weeks ago, in Talahasee Fl, the lady ahead of me in rush hour traffic dynamited her brakes. Snout destroyed again (that old plastic is BRITTLE. Scott and PeteV8 came through again and provided the parts. Tomorrow I take the Boulevard Cruiser to the body shop.
The BC has wracked up 180k miles since that first accident, probably 60k since the second.
I might have junked the BC each time but what would I replace her with and how much would it cost?

I've almost spun mine out once. On my way to school I pegged the throttle turning onto a side road and hit a patch of dirt on the pavement. Spun it about a quarter turn around. Luckily I wasnt going to fast and no one was comming in the other lane (where the back of the car ended up), but it scared the living shit outta me. I'll just stick to brake stands, leave drifting to the pro's.

Dear Panthers,
For the second time the BC is totaled. Insurance will pay $1400 and I keep the title.
I've got $500 in parts and the body shop will eat up the rest. Who knows, maybe I'll get totalled again.
