A new project

[Islandr84]

Looks like I'm going to have a project on my hands. I got into an accident with my R/T on Sunday the 13th. My girlfriend and I decided to take a drive from Vancouver, WA to the coast and follow Hwy 101 up and around the Olympic Peninsula. We were about an hour south of Forks, WA when the truck hydroplaned, I lost control and went off the road, and slammed into an embankment.
Her and I are both okay, but the truck needs quite a bit of work. The body shop says it is totaled, So I will be doing most of the work on my own to reduce repair costs. I will post pics of the progress over the next couple weeks.

whats totaled about it? Glad you guys are ok but the truck looks to have very minor damage!

The right frame rail got pushed back and the core support got bent as well. The A/C condenser, radiator, electric fan and fan shroud all got pushed back, so the fan shroud and elec. fan got bound up on the clutch fan. The coolant overflow tank got pushed back into the power steering pump, and melted a hole into it. The valance got nearly ripped off, and had a hole punched through it by a rock. Both fog lights were destroyed. The passenger side door and rocker panel are both dented pretty good, as well as the lower part of the rear passenger side of the cab.

The shitty part was I had bought a tonneau cover from Barry (6speedRT) that Saturday and planned on having it painted to match my truck the following Monday, but wrecked on Sunday:jerkit:

I can do most of the repairs myself, the trucks going to a frame shop in about 3 hours from now, I'll get it back in 2-3 days, and I've already ordered almost all the parts I need to fix it, plus I found a straight door at the junk yard. When I go back to the body shop, all I will need is some body work and paint and the truck will no longer be considered totaled.:rockwoot:

Sorry to hear so much damage Adam. Figures that something like that would happen right after you bought my tonneau. Let me know if you need some parts. I still have the e fan if you need it. Also, there is a huge auto swap meet in Portland the 31st to 3rd of April that you might attend. I and a few others I know will be there.

Thanks Barry, I put the truck in the frame shop at 9am this morning. I have various parts on the way. I should know by Friday exactly what I'll need. I'll more than likely be there as well, if I do, I will call or text you when I go and we can meet up or something

Well, the truck is out of the frame shop. They were able to straighten it out, so ill be starting the repairs. I've already ordered most of what ill need to put it back together, plus a couple extras I've been waiting to do.
