Hey guys my green 95 that is in my avatar is no more...I was on a long straightaway and a truck in front of me was turning off of the road so the suv and the geo metro in front of me stopped to allow him to turn so I stopped calmly I had plenty of room in front of me...well me and my girlfriend were sitting there chillin stopped waiting for the truck to turn off and we must have been sitting for 5-10 seconds when this tow truck decided to slam into me doing 40 mph!!! my stang was then thrown into the geo and the geo into the suv...my trunk became my rear seat and my rear window shattered and the glass was thrown into my girlfriend's back...we are all ok my neck hurts like a biotch and my girlfriend doesn't feel very good but she came out with just some minor cuts from the glass and a banged up shin from her leg hitting the dash...sorry guys but my buddy has first dibs on the car if I buy back but not sure what I am gonna do yet...but there will be a new stang in the garage soon enough...

Get your neck checked out bro...

I was rearended a couple years ago and I still get neck pain.. My pain only started later that night/next day... Most days are good now but I still got $10k for it, could have gotten a lot more if I had missed any time from work...

Whatever you do make sure that you buy the car back from the insurance. And get your mods off of the car before its junked. Most places let you re aquire the wreck for like 1000 bucks and with all the mods you have you should get them back. Then just junk the rest of the car. And get a new Mustang with the rest of the insurance money.

nope I never got the heads installed however another 5.0 is most likely in my future however maybe a more powerful fox body this time...but yeah everyone is ok and I did have the neck checked out this afternoon and everything came out fine just some pulled muscles...thanks for all your help and support everyone over the last year and a half...and I will more than likely buy it back and sell the parts...
