On May 2, 2002 an atrocity of all atrocities occured. On an onramp goin 30mph, a tire lost traction and my a$%happy 240 did a complete 360 hitting the guard rail twice once in the front and once in the back on the same side. The car i had put so much money in was essentially totaled. After deciding to rebuild it and being relegated to driving a 1986 jetta gli. After buying 2 cars since my original 240sx, i got my whip back the second week of september, 4 1/2 months later.. it's not done yet, doors still have to be painted along with the trunklid, but it's just nice to have the 240 back. just thought i'd let u guys know. You knoe appreciate the full value of something until u can't drive it for almost 5 months. Images later

damn that sucks, glad you have it back. I though I was in bad shape when I had to drive my old prelude for 3 weeks cuz my clutch died in the 240 &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> Now lets see those pictures <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

Yea I know what you mean, I had to get a new front bumper and repaint the rear one in a hit and run, and my car has only been in the shop since monday. But I get her back tommorow(Friday) so hopefully all will be ok and I don't have to drive my 89 Dodge Ram anymore.
