Man that sucks, sorry to hear that dude! You should part it out if you can't rebuild it. How are the rims and tires? What color was your interior? E-mail me if you have the car in your possesion still, I maybe interested in allot of it.

Question

Hey Cooter-

I think I saw your car on I-4 yesterday, was it pretty close to Crane's Roost park, and your entire front fascia was ripped off, it had SS rims and the tow truck was right in front of your car?

If so, everyone was rubbernecking to see what happened.

Sorry about your car.

There was a red LS1 TA (possibly a WS6) being pulled out of the median just north of 434 on I-4 a little while ago tonight. It was covered in mud and possibly had a bent wheel but didn't look too tore up.

This rain is beginning to really suck! But we need it.

Yeah, it looks cool when a car slips and slide, but it's never fun when it's your car and you're heading onto a curb or onto oncomiing traffic!

Luckily the grass stopped me well in time before i went over the the other lane!

Yeah, all this rain is begining to become a real pain in the ***. My tires have very little tred and I have been saving for new, larger wheels for my T/A. I dont want to buy tires twice but it pretty dangerous right now.

I had a guy e-mail me about a motor and tranny, I told him to e-mail you. Is that big dash part (piece with the defroster vents) cracked? I know someone else who needs to buy front seatbelts, a carpet, and a dark grey headliner if you have them all in dark grey. It would be some work but you could part this car out and get enough money for another Z. I'll buy the rear piece that says CAMARO between the tail lights from you right now and any of the other parts I mentioned. Let me know, I'll go out there with you. I'll probably buy enough stuff to pay your towing bill.

I just read another post about some guy running his z-28 off of an onramp on I-4. Man, there must be some bad carma on I-4. O wai, it's just this damn rain
