Robert,
I assume your bride is OK, at least from the wreck itself.
Looks like it might be time to consider a Choo Choo front end! :nanawrench:
Take care,

Yes, she's fine, bruised pride, but otherwise unhurt, choo choo ! I think I will probably get Gumby back on the road now first.
PS, still working up your est.

Very sorry to see that. Glad your wife is ok.

..OUCH,Now I'm having second thoughts....

..glad the wife is ok,that front clip can be replace.:beer:

 

[TexasElCamino]

Glad your wife is okay, but very sorry about your Gumby!

At least your car took the hit, not your wife.

Cars can be fixed, a good wife is irreplacable.

Glad she's ok.

 

[oldtinsmith]

Glad your wife is okay!! Looking forward to a Gumby rebuild.

Man that's terrible! Looks like some frame damage too.

Glad your wife is ok. Looks like you can buff it out ....

 

[1980SteelBeast]

Ouch!...Glad she only suffered a few bruises! That just proves older cars are better cause airbags aren't needed when you have a real steel tank to drive....:nanawrench:

 

[Camino80]

The main thing is that your wifes OK. Cars are fixable or replaceable.

 

[ccc]

thats only a machine as long as the wife is ok you can fix the car.

 

[DONE DEAL DONNY]

I agree with everyone else, glad your wife is O.K.
What's your plans?

Good to hear the wife is OK except for bruises ( and pride). My wife was in a bad crash some years ago, and couldn't work as an RN after that. Life is fragile for sure.....

 

[DalTee]

Sorry about the ridE!! Glad your wife can tell you the story!

 

[Keyser Sose]

Glad to Mrs is ok!!! take the insurance $$, keep the elkie, buy another one to fix, since you now have all those spare parts!

oke:

 

[Bobby78]

Maybe you could put that studebaker nose on it!oke:

Any pics of the other car? Curious what that much twisted metal on the elky did to one of today's plastic and tin cans.

Best wishes to your wife, Robert. She must be a saint, putting up with you all these years!

She is. and she is really heartbroken over the elky and keeps apologizing for crashing it.
I told her it's just a car, insured and replaceable, no one hurt, no foul. If she had been in her plastic Cadillac, she would have been hurt.
