It was a Mercury Grand Marquis. Read the post right before yours for the final outcome.

It's finally all over. After buying the truck back from the insurance co., I'll be left with $4,900 and change. It's not quite where I'd want to be in a perfect world, but I'm ready to have all this behind me. For the time being I'm just going to park the 1028. After the wreck I bought a '95...

Update: Well, it's taken a month and a half but the other guy's insurance adjuster is finally coming out today to look at my truck. The very first time i spoke with them they wanted to place some liability on me because of the police comments in the report. I had to inform them of the existence...

On my way home tonight, I stopped at the station the wreck happened in front of. Turns out the guy working tonight was also working that night and saw the whole thing. He confirmed that my lights were definitely on and that the other vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed. He's seen their...

Marcus, thanks for the offer. Like you say, it will cost more than the truck is worth. At this point it's up to the insurers and attorneys, I'm going to be happy if I come out unscathed. It all happened in front of a large convenience station. Hopefully their cameras where able to catch the...

Now the nightmare begins. I guess the guys that hit me is connected. After a week and a half the police report was finally released. "Investigators Opinion of What Happened" is as follows (I'm Unit 2), "as the driver of Unit 2 approached the entrance to turn left, the driver engaged the brakes...

That would be awesome! This has been my fear, that they are just going to low ball it because "it's just an old Chevy". I'll let you know if it looks like I'll need it and I'll put a word out on the forum to see what other docs I can get. "Quick" is apparently not a word the records department...

In the shot looking back down the frame, it looks to me like the frame has a twist. Starts just about above the tire and twists as it goes rear. I think a lot of the impact went under the truck and hit my springs and lifted. The bed jumped forward and bit the cab on the passenger side. My...

Hey guys, I really appreciate all the well wishes. I'll heed the advice given and leave out medical/physical condition. Well on Saturday I called in to the police station and got the report number. I asked if the driver was insured and they said they didn't know as of yet and to call back on...

Well the unfortunate happened. My 1028 is not so happy. I was rear ended on my way home from work. I left work just before 2 am, bars close at 2 here. I was in a 30 mph zone going between 25-30. I was slammed into by a car that was estimated by several witnesses to be traveling over 80 mph...
