Graham S Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Dude, thats not nice, your a lucky man! You really need to make sure that you get those bits off the car as you really don't want to be seeing someone else making a fortune on your parts.. Maybe try calling the insurance company and say you want parts from it before it leaves, or just lie and say you have something you NEED from the car before anything happens.. To put a scale on things Phoenix-one, Lovatt and myself pulled a supra to bare shell in literally a couple of hours, engine, boot lid, interior, suspension, the lot.. literally take a grinder to the bits that are in the way! That was a stunning looking car mate.. Maybe keep those parts for the next one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Jesus!! T-cut ain't going fo fix that one I'm afraid!! Like the others have said, although we love and get attached to our cars, they can be replaced. We can't...... H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 That’s one extreme way of getting the de-spoilered/de-wipered look! It stood up well to a very hard accident, a credit to the strength of these cars. As others have mentioned, I'd try and get any salvageable parts from the car as soon as possible, otherwise they WILL disappear once it gets into a salvage yard.

turbonut Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Ditto to all the posts, you are hugely lucky fellah, I'm sure you had someone up there looking after you, thanks heavens. Heartbreaking about the car but get back as much as you can....and then start looking for another supra All good wishes Linda xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Glad to here you're ok. That was a nasty one. Keep all your stuff on for the insurance company (put in another radio before they see you've taken it. They will take the cost of your pay out. If its not declared you can swap things about. First dibs on the wheels;) The supra is a strong car but you're still lucky, main thing is you're not badly hurt:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
