Sometimes the Carfax doesn't look that bad. My wife's previous Focus was in 7 accidents (only 1 was her fault). After the last one the car was totaled, when the insurance company sent a copy of the history, only 1 accident was listed. It was listed as a minor accident when it was actually the worst of all of them.

More wax, more pics.

Just a little word of advice: "dents" and "accidents" are not in the vocabulary of my good ones. Certain things I cannot tolerate with my good cars; I've kept out of trouble with them by not accepting certain things. Dunno how but it has worked (prayer, careful driving and very tight scrutiny in their supervision has helped).

Finally install the collection of parts that has accumulated since November, and enjoy the shit out of it from Spring until winter 2018

1. Rear passenger side quarter panel replaced along with rear bumper. Someone did a hit and run in the parking lot at the GYM OF ALL PLACES WHY THE GYM?!?!

2. Driver headlight, Front Bumper and Hood replaced. Car hit a deer at 45 MPH.

3. Driver front fender and door replaced due to a sideswipe accident. At least the person didn’t hit and run.

4. Front bumper replaced (again) along with radiator. Ran over some foreign object in the road.

5. Rear passenger wheel, tie rod, sub-frame and control arm. Hit a curb. (Surprisingly they didn’t total the car after this accident. Although I would have loved for them to total it.

Sounds like the boy could benefit from a defensive driving course!

This was my goal this year along with a cam, but with a 6 month old at home now and a move happening, that's going to drain me a little dry.

My goal this year is to get the car finished at the body shop with some new parts (no not wrecked, cosmetic mods) and get a cam and likely a new stall installed.

Rip the tires off leaving the Sugar Bowl, then again in Atlanta after the Natty. Then again and again for no good reason.

To drive it! I bought it in August of 16 with 97 miles on it. I drove it home from Richmond Virginia, 350 fun miles. When I put it away this winter, I had just turned 800 miles. I did have an ongoing dispute with Pirelli over the dry rotted Trofeos that took most of the summer, but still I gotta drive it!

FASTNLO · 12-27-2017, 03:45 PM

I am going to put a supercharger on my SS. Any comments from folks that have supercharged their 2014 would be great. I am looking at a TVS2300.

Wow! Funny how carfax is supposed to notify anyone of any accidents before they purchase the car.(hopefully it won’t get wrecked don’t want my kid hurt).......guess ya can’t trust carfax either. And wow 7 accidents!!! Hopefully the next time the car gets wrecked that it will be totaled out.
