Well Adam and Jessi are truly amazing! I called Adam, and he was on his way instantly. AAA was then in route, and my car made it home.

It is now in the garage, awaiting dissection.


Adam and Jessi are the BEST!



Story: Well its simple. I drive my car hard. I was driving fast, probably too fast, but then I dont remember. I also have another problem, Im hypoglycemic. I have a tendency to black out during adrenaline spikes. Not sure if that really happened. I havent blacked out in a long while, years (except the time I had a stomach virus).

No other cars were involved. No cops appeared. No one was hurt. I feel fine (we will see tomorrow).

That is not a cool story, Bro.

When did this happen?

Adam and Jess are the shit when it comes to help.
Them and Ed were Johnny on the spot when my 521 needed to be pulled from Cedar Hills to Tigard.

Thanks guys! It is fixable. Its just metal.

Tackled a bit of the car. Step 1, remove stuff!

Well I did a quickie inspection, and I am mostly happy.

Bottom frame rail looks just as straight as it always has. Top rail has no creases in it, but does have a slight downward and probably inward bow, but this would appear mostly due to inner fender.

There are a couple of ripples in the core support. The driver side T/C cup tore off (probably from hitting the curb directly). Tie rod bent like a taco. I cant tell if the LCA bent yet... Need to get it in the air for that...

Hey, at least my windshield didnt bust.

Man! Glad you're okay. You'll be back on the road shortly I'm sure. Looks like most of the really ugly stuff is bolt-on. The TC pocket is probably the ugliest part. Was that the prototype grille? Where did this happen?
