Bradley,

My feelings exactly. Thank God that you are OK. I sincerely hope that everything works out for you. I hope they catch that SOB.

Your subject title refers to your cat being dead. It doesn't look totaled...is it? It seemed to hold up pretty well considering the impact.

One of my nightmares in The Netherlands is that some day
somebody would run into my Kat and danage it slightly but
it would take me foreever to get the parts organized in
this part of the world.

Hope you will find your new ride soon.

Best regards,

That's two silvers from Dallas that I know of being executed now.

Hope they find the persons that did this.

According to the adjuster at the dealer, the frame is broken. Part of the transmission is sticking out of the other side. Look at the right wheel in the rear view picture and you can see the angle the wheel is sitting. Even broke that brake rotor. The hood dosen't fit and the front wheels don't line up with rest of the car. The car was torqued so much that the glove box won't even close.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the car was still running just as smooth as ever and the radio still playing the oldies station. I looked out my window as 3 people were looking inside to find the dead guy. I assured them I was OK, but needed a second to check all my body parts to assure they were still attached. My car came to rest about 5 feet in front of the vehicles waiting for the light to go the other direction. The car right next to me had 3 kids in it and they were crying because they thought I was hurt. I pulled 3 match box Prowlers out of the console for them and they were ok. I love this car!!

A new frame could be put under it, but I'm glad that Farmers Insurance does not want to do that. It would require that a salvage title be issued (Not good for me).

As I said, I am very impressed with the way the car protected me. Lots of good stuff is still intact. I can't do anything with the car until everything is settled with the insurance company. Just turned over 16,000 miles, and I got to do 7586 of them and was smiling for all of them except for the last 2 seconds and 50 feet of it. I may buy it at the salvage price if it is fair. My brother has a 30,000 sq. ft. warehouse I could put it in and strip it as needed. OR there are some salvage people already wanting to buy it as is. I would love to take the Prowler apart and send it all over the world to whomever needs it, but I spend about 12 hours a day now running my printing company. Crawling all over a Prowler would be good therapy, so I will seriously consider keeping the remains. I'll make that decision when the time comes and I'm off the good drugs provided by the doctor. At least I don't hurt while I'm popin those pills (good stuff). For those wondering... I'm keepin the POA license plate frame for sure.

I'm wondering how a silver hard top would look on a Mulholland with 400 miles on it. A reverse "Blue Tie"? Sounds interesting.

Thanks for listening, and being there for me. God bless you all!! Brad
