Think this can be buffed out? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So going to work this morning, 7:30am so worst of morning rush hour. I am in the far left lane when a guy in a 2500 series Chevy pickup makes a right hand turn lane. He decided he had to get all the way across instantly and side swiped me both of us doing about 45... threw me onto the median almost into oncoming traffic. Now I am cruising a Nissan sentra pos. On the positive side only property damage and no injuries... so could have been a much worse morning Name: uploadfromtaptalk1426898498945.jpg

Any idea what kind of suspension, sub frame or motor damage that did? It looks like some fluids were leaking out from under there.

That sucks, I really hate people who panic and do stupid stuff like that, just go make a freakin u-turn instead of freaking out about making THAT turn.

Sorry about the car, hopefully they get her all fixed up soon.

And oh yeah, I think that'll buff right out!

Make sure they check out the undercarriage...

Sucks.

Good luck.

RubyCamaro · 03-20-2015, 07:55 PM

So sorry. Hope you can get it repaired or replaced quickly & with minimum hassle. Hope no one was hurt.

It's being looked at so not sure on sub damage. We were not sure if that was fluids or water, it was raining last night. Air bags did not deploy so there is that too. Oil and coolant was still full so could have been break fluid or... gasp... trans fluid. I'll know next week the extent of the damage. Other guy's insurance is taking care of it luckily... up to a 33% chance of someone not having insurance in this next of the woods

Both of us were fine I was alone and he had just dropped off the grand kids luckily.

Relax, all right...? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.
