Pig Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 all i want now is my supra to be repairable Have you got any pics with the bonnet up? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but if the chassis legs are damaged (which i really suspect) then there is not chance its repairable...... Sorry mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Lynz_ Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 God Matt, I don't know what I expected, as you had said you didn't think it was repairable, but bloody hell thats worse than I thought it would be. The main thing is that you're ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knight-racer Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Well after the weeks of hard work we carried out on Matt's car we were truely gutted and sorry to see it in this state the other morning. Hope you get it sorted with the police and the guys who caused the accident. On the bright side you walked away unhurt from what looked like an extremely violent collision.

garetheves Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 That really is a sorry sight Matt, i doubt its repairable tbh so start planning the next one, it will help to keep your chin up and give you something to aim for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_supra Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Matt that is terrible, really sorry to see your pride and joy like that. Try to stay positive, not easy i know, but It could've been a lot worse. Glad you are ok and I'm sure things will work themselves out, every cloud has a silver lining.

Ian C Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 That's a darn shame But at least it shows once again that the Supra is an incredibly tough car for its year of manufacture, a high speed impact like that and the passenger shell looks perfect. What did you hit, I hope it came off worse Did someone pull out in front of you or something? -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDriver Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 This is really terrible :( I do hope you have the courage and possibility to start a new project car! - Peter - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Sorry if ive missed anything or anyones post, feel a lot better this morning, things seem to be going in the right direction with rectifying this tw&t of a situation Poor supra! So when you break it, I'm having your seats remember Vulture OMG are you sure ther Fu*$kers dont need a body bag? No your right they do Ouch, no way thats ever going back on the road. Thats the problem when you remove the crash bar for the FMIC (which i have too) Sorry site matt I here it so many times why couldnt do-luck design in the safety feature?! it actually beggers belief if you think about it shame i feel for you mate all that hard work, hope they find the guys, you sure the fronts not repairable? i bet you gvn could fix that, my dads recently repaired a bmw he bought squashed in by a lorry worse than that Its pretty fooked, not sure if its worth the hassle of repair, will never be as good / strong as what it was jigging the chassy Have you got any pics with the bonnet up? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but if the chassis legs are damaged (which i really suspect) then there is not chance its repairable...... Sorry mate I'l have a look tonight, engine is fine mind That's a darn shame But at least it shows once again that the Supra is an incredibly tough car for its year of manufacture, a high speed impact like that and the passenger shell looks perfect. What did you hit, I hope it came off worse Did someone pull out in front of you or something? -Ian I hit a brick wall that was part of a barn, i walked out of the car, unscaved, everyone was amazed that i even managed to get out of the car let along be unscaved. Couple of bumps and bruises. I only worked out why my drivers window was smashed hours later, when i realised the bump on the side of my head was through my head getting whipped into the window and going through it!! Bottom line is, if i ever have a serious crash in the future, i want it to be in a supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It is a good testiment to the car to see it hold up reasonably well considering. There is a pic in my garage of my old celica after a Nissan Navarro pulled out in front of me. Compare that to Matts and it doesn't look too bad. Not that helps Matt any, but it goes to show how strong the supa is. First thing I did mate was start looking for a new car, it really did make me feel better.

Nic Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Really sorry for you Matt, it was a beautiful looking car. Glad you are relatively okay given what must have been a pretty hard impact. Onwards and upwards as they say! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chin up mate it doesn't help at this time but you still have your health. To be honest, it not that fussed, everyones said like "im really sorry and tell me to bog off if you want" sort of thing. But right now i dont know what to do, another supra, perfect spec modded again to what it was would be really nice, but for the same money, i could get a R34 GTR, or even push the boat out with my savings and get a TVR Sagaris. The road might be long tho Really sorry for you Matt, it was a beautiful looking car. Glad you are relatively okay given what must have been a pretty hard impact. Onwards and upwards as they say! Even tho i wont have need for them right now im still looking forward to getting those 19" Kranze Borphes, such a beaut wheel. wish my supra was good to stick them on when they arive there was a waste of £2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
