re. I'm sick!

[ben swann]

I know how you feel Bob.  I have still not gotten over the declared
total of my '87 5kcstqa, even though I ended up with the '91 200 20V
tqa and got to keep the wreck.

I will be likely spending more time than many would consider worth it
to recoup the parts I have in her, and there is a lot that needs to be
done to the '91 I'm finding, despite the low miles and good overall
condition.

Hopefully you can get yours repaired and be spared the work.

[<snip>I wasabout 1/4 mile from his home going around a narrow sharp
poor visibility right hand corner when a battered old Dodge pickup came
flying around the  same bend going the opposite direction - in my
lane!  There was nowhere for me to dodge the Dodge.  I was about 6
inches from the ditch on my side.  I got fully stopped before she hit
me.  The LF corner of my '95 urS6 now is rather ugly.  :-(  Her skid
marks are clearly on my side of the road.

Looking on the bright side, I guess an upgrade to Euros might be in
order pretty soon, assuming that the insurance company doesn't decide
to total the vehicle due to expensive repairs.  If so, they will have a
fight on their hands.  Pictures available if anyone wants to view the
damage.
