glad everyone is okay man

stevo 07-06-2009 11:02 PM

yea i was thinkin about takin it and doing a v8 swap but idk the extent of internal damage
the insurance company is still moving it from the impound lot

I'm glad everyone is going to be ok.

Blazer looks totaled, I'd steer clear of any swap or rebuilds..

Don't even bother. I rebuilt my 95 Jimmy this year. When I bought it it was wrecked. But not nearly as bad as yours. I had to replace both fenders, hood, radiator frame, grill and bumper. That's cosmetic as far as I'm concerned because it's all bolt-on stuff. The problem is when you get to frame damage. Yours is far worse than mine. And I never really got the bumper mounts straight. I wouldn't be suprised if the subframe on yours is also bent. Then there's damage to your engine. I only had to replace the fan, radiator and water pump. Yours looks far more back.

Then we get back to your doors. You have damage not only to the front doors but rippling in the back. You'll have a heck of a time getting that front door to seal again, when it's replaced. But if you have damage to the doors, you'll probably have body warping too.

Um what happened? Looks like someone went through a red light. Are you getting insurance back for it. Because I have to agree, it's totalled. Don't worry about any swap outs. If anything get another one and use this for parts.

Oh, yeah, glad to hear everyone is ok.

Oh, ok sorry saw your post. Yeah, get the insurance and send it down the road. Don't even consider a rebuild for this corpse.

thanks for the info, really changed my mind
ive been looking for a truck anyway
so far idk what the insurance will give them
but yea they ran a redlight at an intersection, on a highway
my dad was going at least 50 and he was going like 35-40
just came out of a side road
but thanks, everyone ok

A prybar, body hammer and some body filler... naaa.
I would consider that vehicle to be totaled due to the fact that it's gonna cost more to fix properly than 50% of the worth of the vehicle.

stevo 07-07-2009 04:26 PM

yea, just the stuff that i can see from the pics
off lmc truck all the body panels will cost around 1800
without paint
plus a windsheild
and i think my dad said the airbags are real expensive

Not trying to be a dick, but i love that pic of your dad with the blood on his shirt and the gauze on his head.

The girl is like "holy **** oh my god!" but your dad is just like "whatever im a man i dont give a ****, just get me out of this ****hole"
