    That's a total bummer man. But like others have said, at least you are ok.
    My brother smoked a deer last fall in his Mustang, on the way to our sister's wedding. First thing I asked him was if he tagged it (it was hunting season) and loaded it in the back. He was not amused. Just trying to lighten things up a bit. His is salvageable though. Got him a new fender for Christmas.

    Hope it all works out for you man. I'd look into that getting the car assessed for damage tbirdsps mentioned and seeing if you may be able to deduct the loss on this year’s tax return.

    sorry to hear about this Blackie. that sucks. did the air bag go off?

    as a heart transplant recipient i must request... please dont scrap her, let her live on through other wagon lover's rides.

    PS .... be glad you never settled for a smart car.

    Sorry to hear about that. That car was really well known. Does that have the plastic fuel tank? If so what fuel pump are you running? A 255 per chance? If so what would you want for them?

    OK, Blackie....as long as someone else asked about parts....I presume you have the tow package...but...if NOT, I would be interested in the 2 electric fan set up with the attached harness, hardware and the electric fan shroud. What I was REALLY hoping is that the wagon could be fixed so you could keep it.

    Stick, it has the plastic tank, stock pump.

    Mike, it is a 93, they only ran mechanical fans on the L05 motors. Even if it did have electric fans, they would be toast, they radiator is into the fan.

    I am not sure what to do right now. Motor is junk, front is toast. But there is so many good parts on it. I contemplated rebuilding it, but have no place to store it.

    My wife moved back in after 3 months of being gone. Its been the best 3 weeks of our marriage and things are looking up again. So to replace the totaled 93 Roadie, I bought her a 98 Saturn SL2 twin cam. Nice lil car, quick, great on gas(33mpg) and its fun to drive. The 92 Roadie has not been driven much in the past week, lol. She saw a Saturn wagon and wants to find one. God I love that woman now more then ever, lol.

    Also, I have the new job and I work second shift with manditory 10 hour days and Saturdays. So I have not been on much due to 60-65 hour weeks. Money is rolling in nicely and the wife and I get along better now then ever. So things are going good, other then the premature death of Moaby.

    Thanks Ian, its great to be back. On a sadder note, I was washing Blue and discovered a rust hole in the left rear quarter behind the tire. I really need to move out of the snow/salt/rust belt. I soaked the underside with used oil last fall and it did not seem to help. Damn it!
