That definitely looks totaled. Sorry.

 

[kickasskid2087]

Damn man sorry to hear. Hopefully insurance will cover it. You had a pretty clean talon there. RIP

 

[rock1t]

That sucks dude. Goodyear's are the worst tires I have every been through. Had three blow outs in two weeks. They blew out on the sidewalls, evidently to hard of cornering on them.

sweet another qc area car..

 

[Fabian]

that sucks. You were doin so well with it too!

Thanks to all of you. I will bring her back form the died even if they total it on me. its all body and a little exhaust like it ripped the rear O2 out but that can be fixed. So i will rebuild her. I have the know how and people that will help me. There are 6 of my friend offered to help me and 2 of them own a body shop so ill have her back in one beautiful peace some time ill post later today or tomorrow to tell if they totaled it out on me. I was going to get her paint this winter cause I wont drive the car in the winter but the Goodyear's picked the time for the paint job, cheep tires. I looked at the side wall of the on tire it blow out. So to every one who has Eagle h2 watch out. That happen to me at forty in a speed area where the limit is forty in a split second. So every one check your tires regularly!!!!!

Man, sorry that happened. Hope you get it back up and running soon.

didn't we just talk Sad to see her all banged up

 

[black_gst]

hey man hope your ok i have been and a couple of bad wrecks myself

 

[joe sobo]

actually, it dosen't matter if they total it . just buy it back from them. the rear quarters on these dsm are actually really easy to replace. it looks as though all your other damage is to parts that can be un-bolted off the car like the door,fender,and bumper.... good luck

Man i see you have yours looks bad. Im fine i hope you ok. Just a little heart broke. Cause the day I watch my neighbor come home with an eagle i fell in love and the day he blow up the motor for the second time and sold the car for parts mad me mad. I know more about the car then he did i build the first motor he had for him with all little help when i was 15 it was a 2.0 with all new head 272 cams with greddy adjustable cams, brian crower Valve dual Springs and retainers, cooper guides. the bottom end all new bolt ons water pump, oil pump, ect. ARP Headstuds with Cometic Head Gasket and eagle rods wiseco pistons one BA moter and he blow it up after he put in dsmlink and burnt the pistons to the walls the second one he bought form a guy for 4k a week later he dropped a rod dumping the clutch. I will not let another be sold for part or end up crushed in a scrap yard i will rebuild her.

Ooooh ouch. I had a similar endstate car settling like yours with my 94 Talon. Only my tires werent to blame, my childish 16yr-oldness at the time was. Going too fast around a corner on a gravel road and i slide off into a ditch / lake. It was fun .

Cant wait to see some recovery pics man! I agree with others, that dmg doesnt look bad at all, body works cake.

yea that suck but I was going the post speed limit cause i look down at the speedometer and seen 43 then looked up an seen the guy braking in front of me.

yea it is cake the only thing that is not body work are the rear o2 that good broke off and the auto tranny oil cooler but the hardest part if i have to do it is the rockers but there is a buddy of mine that can help cause he has a body shop.

 

[92tsiawdjh]

good to see that you are getting the ball rolling on getting her back on the road. Sorry for the mishap but it happens to all of us at some point in time.

 

[dragon2144]

I have just found out that my car is totaled and have already started the rebuild was looking on the classifieds and fond some fenders. will be having one of my buddy's that have a body shop come and look at it tomorrow and will most likely be getting new rockers by the end of the week or after i get my check for the total now let the rebuild begin.
check back to see more as i will post when i get new updates.

P.S. thank you joe sobo. Will thank you after you get your M.O. and i get the fenders
