Its been fun CLC

Well, 440 did it to me again. Real good this time. Last Tuesday when it was raining I got clipped in the rear by a blue van. It spun me around, I was able to miss all of the other cars but hit the guardrail and concrete. The van keeps going

A girl stops and as a witness and told the police her story, but she did not get the tag#

The insurance called me today and said the vehicle is a 'total loss'.

I'll take pictures and post them when I can get down there.

I will have some things for sale.

Now I gotta get another car.

Maybe if I move away from Raleigh I'd get another EVO. People here were always pulling out in front of me and stuff. The EVO is too nice a vehicle to have another get trashed by some idiot.

I'm going to start looking for another car this weekend, maybe even a truck I just don't know what I'll end up with. Damn I miss the EVO...

Damn, dude! Sorry to hear that, but at least you are ok! I hope you find something that you like if not another EVO. I'm not quite sure who you are yet though. I've only met a few people! I did see a blue EVO when I was leaving work the other day though. Had some rainbow vinyl on the side and the guy had a blonde mohawk thing going on. Was that you? Anyway, I wish you the best and maybe I'll meet ya sometime! PEACE!!!!

here is the rear, every body panel lines up like the trunk, the car doesn't look too bad from a distance but the thing is pretty bent.

O.K. I no longer drive a I've got a FHI product now. Most people ask "what is that?"

It is still AWD and Turbo. I took a bit of a performance hit on the street, but this is easier to take camping and light off roading, and I can get a trailer hitch for it.

I have 4 stock Enkies and Advans for sale about 500 miles on them $1000 for the set.
I have the stock exhaust from the Turbo back for sale as well, it only has about 500 miles on it because it was recently replaced due to getting rearended over the summer. make offer.

Evolution to a Baja Turbo.

A downgrade in performance but an upgrade in utility, huh?

I can dig that.
