I dug the Mustang out today and took the Wife and Dawn up to Idaho Falls to work on some shot gun fitment.
as I was turning into the clubs road I turned the odometer over to 32-K miles.
we got there and set up the trap house and I fiddled with Dawns [my] Remington a bit and got it to shoot better for her.
[she finally got her first 25 straight and was working on her second when she lost her focus]
I got out the old SKB and started mocking things up.
don't laugh.
I was using some foam rubber, a bit of spandex, a piece of harder closed cell foam, some safety pins, and some duct tape.
[yes it worked]
anyway:
I had parked the Mustang out in the middle of the lot by itself.
at least 50' from anything and any other vehicles.
yep..
dude backs his truck into the side of it.
munches in the fender and scuffs up the tire, pushes it just enough to crack the windshield, and jams the fender against the hood.
the door missed the bent fender by just a hair and is able to open even though it looks like it shouldn't.
I had to stop on the way home and bend the fender up and out of the way cause every time I hit a bump it would rub the fender.
hopefully he didn't jam the shock tower over since it's part of the inner fender well.
looks like tomorrow will be spent talking to the insurance company and getting an estimate from the repair shop here in town.
