Today at around noon, I was involved in a bad accident. Before I go on, I'm ok, aside from a stiff neck.
I was traveling on a main road, doing 45mph (45mph zone), and I noticed a big flatbed truck waiting to make a right turn onto the street. I was in the far right lane, with moderate traffic in the lanes next to me. Now, there was plenty of room behind me for the truck to enter the road when I passed. However, he decided not to check his left-hand side and plow into the street. He pulls out right into me, and I catch the back of the flatbed. I swerved under hard braking in order to avoid going underneath the truck, and I did. Still, the results weren't pretty. I was dreading getting out of the car to see the aftermath.
Oh, I almost forgot, the jackass took off after the incident, hit and run. I didn't get his plates down as I was in shock for a while, but plenty of witnesses saw what happened (one of which was an attorney), and luckily there are street cameras there that caught the whole incident. I'm gonna make sure he gets ****ed within an inch of his life. I could have been severely injured, he didn't know that. He just booked it. Also, the dumbass works at the place that he was pulling out of, and several coworkers told the cops on the scene who it was. I hope he goes to jail and eats ****. I'll be prosecuting his ass.
Anyways, I got out of the car and lost it when I saw what was left of her. I have so much attachment to that Mustang, and it completely crushed me. Here are some pics:
I feel sick looking at the pictures still. I was going to keep this car forever. I loved it so much, and I put a lot of time and effort into it. Every mod I had was exactly what I wanted; I never half-assed anything. It just sucks so much. Might sound corny, but I feel like I lost a dear friend. She'll always be missed. All my friends are devastated. They all loved that car so much, as well.
Here are some pics of the different stages she went through. I just want to remember the good times, and see how this car changed. I know I'm being a little emotional, but it is emotional, like it or not. This car was more than a hunk of metal to me.
Stock, when I first took ownership:
Added a Mach 1 chin spoiler and headlights with black housings:
Threw on the FR500 wheels:
Wing delete, tinted tails:
And then finally, black Terminator wheels with black headlights:
Throughout all these cosmetic changes, many performance mods were performed. I was going to lower her next weekend with Eibach Sportlines, along with the addition of a Terminator trunk lid. I had plans for a single turbo setup, as well. That was supposed to happen this summer. It's really unfortunate that I lost my car due to the ignorance of some loser piece of ****.
As for my next car, I don't know. It's too soon to think about it. Something I don't even want to discuss yet. I'll be rocking my cool Mazda 3 (sedan) rental for the next few weeks until things are sorted out. I have meetings with the adjusters tomorrow, so it'll be a busy day. But yeah... That's my situation, and it sucks. Lost something very dear to me.
