Stupid truck drivers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

At least his 'bad ass toy' was high enough to avoid any significant body damage.

No note.

Funny thing was the woman I spoke with about the insurance claim had a 70 914 she's had for 18 years. We talked about seat belts before we took care of business. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif). Told her about 914World. We'll see if she shows up.

My first car was a Datsun 510 that got backed into and crunched the corner. The guy I bought it from took $100 cash on the spot to avoid insurance headaches. Oof.

Long story short PO prob worked for me.

I know, not the same. Just trying to cheer you up... Never mind.

Sounds like insurance will help at least?

Somehow I like the old days of wrangling in the parking lot compared to dealing with the insurance companies.

I'm annoyed in general with most people's driving, regardless of vehicle!
Sorry to see you got tagged Mark, but it doesn't look too bad at least.

Good reason to make a trip to Rick's and make sure it is still straight. I hear he has a rack in his shop.

That's to bad mark. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

That's a pisser, for sure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Not that it matters but would you mind sharing how it happened.

Parked behind a truck with about 8ft between his bumper and mine. Apparently that wasn't quite enough room. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Mark, where was it parked? ... any chance someone in the area had surveillance cameras? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Bad enough that your car was damaged, but just as bad, there's some useless piece of shit out there laughing about it. He (or she) has probably done it to someone else before, and will probably do it again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif)

They need to experience payback (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

I actually thought about taking a picture of their license plate when I parked, cause I had a feeling. Definitely going to start making that a habit. Easy to take a couple pics as insurance just in case.

If you do, get a camera with better low-light handling. I love your pics, but they all make your shop look like a survival horror game... 8)
