GR8 COUP Lives!!

On 1/21, GR8 COUP was t-boned by a Toyota (with no lights on) at about 25mph.

I'm happy to report that GR8 COUP is finally back together in one piece and sitting in front of my house tonight.

The last item on the punch list before I picked it up this evening was an alignment. the car feels better than ever. I can't wait to get into some twisties!!

On top of that, the accident was judged NOT my fault, so I didn't even have to pay the deductible. the grand total for repairs was about $5,300.

Wooo-hooo!! I love happy endings.
