A picture is worth a thousand words

 

Damnnnn no ******* way. What happened?

 

Oh ****

 

Dayum...

I saw a bentley continental on the side of the road with the hood twisted over the front a few weeks ago. wish i had pics.

glad yer allright

 

O ****! R u ok. That would suck ***. I had a 79 trans am that I didn't latch the hood very well and it came up on me at like 15 mph and that freaked me out, but I would say it fails to compare to this.

 

thats scary as hell...

 

that sucks, that almost happened to my dads 350 over break, luckily the second one caught it

 

WTF?! That's a stock hood, what the hell happened? Did the latch break?

I have never seen that happen to a stock hood.. Is the car ok?

 

Damn man.

Doesn't look stock because it cracked on the left side.

 

the stock hoods are fiberglass, so you would expect a break

 

man i believe that hoodscoop saved your roof of your car. wow... my hoods been hopping a little recently,, ive been thinking about it flying up,, how fast were you going?

 

You know what? I'm glad just your hood came up. When the picture first started to load, I thought you wrecked your car. I am glad you didn't and I'm glad you're okay.

Time for a new hood!

 

NOOO!!! That sucks man....

So is the windshield gone too? Hopefully not, maybe that hood scoop saved it....

 

Thanks everybody, It happened Sat. I had gone to pick up a friend up and meet some other people for a cookout. I came out of his subdivion and got on the main road and started going through the gears and got up to about 50 and............WHOOP!!!! and I do mean WHOOP!

I got slowed down and between him looking out of his side and me looking out my side we got pulled over without hitting anything. We got out and was wondering what the hell we had hit. There was glass all inside the car and the rearview mirror was pointing south.

The hood is broken into and the scoop is the only thing holding it together, the windshield is caved in, hood hinges are bent, wiper arms are bent, and two dents on the roof about 4" long and 1/2" deep.

The body shop has the car and the estiment was $3200. They are going to use all OEM parts and the boy that is going to do the repairs is one of the best I've ever seen so I'm really not worried about the outcome. Insurance is also covering the cost of new underwear

 

Dayummmmmm thats fucked up. Well at least insurance is covering it.

 

****, that reminds me that I need to get some hood pins.

 

You might have a newfound talent after this. You should be able to crack walnut shells between your asscheeks now!

 

HAHAHA! Good way to find the good in a bad situation Black Sunshine. That's why we love you here.

But, anyways back to the subject it is very good that insurance covered it. And like FR500 said hood pins are always a good idea. Point already proven.

 

Got the car back today and it looks like it never happened. All OEM parts and paint work looks great, just a little dust in the car. Going to Walmart for new blummers

 

That was pretty quick, good deal.

 

Congrats on only needing new bloomers and the quick fix on the hood. Now how bout some pics.

 

well that sux

 

looks exactly like mine about 2-3 weeks ago, you must have been going 60+miles per hour when this happened, I was doing about 35-40 and my hood didn't crack that bad, scoop was ok but the winshield was a goner, cost me $260, changed it in my yard and carried off the old one.

not so TUFF at the moment huh

 

oh my. Glad u r ok and back on the road

 

Dammit, i saw this and thought it happened again. And he is tuff now lol, it was months ago.

 

why the hell did Tape resurrect this old *** thread? this happened a good few months ago.


oh, MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN, TUFF!

 

Put a set of pins on it a couple of months ago, Thanks! Whos Tape and whats up with the ban, I must have missed something.

 

Think R3D gave him a temp ban because of Zigs ammo thread...possibly.

 

Thanks, I don't do much with guns so I didn't read the thread. I read it and see now what happened.
