Crashed my HHR

Hello everyone. I have never spoke on here before, mainly because I enjoy the site for research, stories, and the polls(oddly these are the only polls I enjoy). But have a story of my own Sadly the other day, on my way to work, I had a bad experience. Lots of rain and a couple of zig zags later I rearend a tractor trailer. It wasnt totaled, so Im rebuilding it. So I thought I would just show you guys where Im at and later finished product

So I hope i didnt screw this picture thing up for dial up users. It took me two days and fallenSaint's thread to get thru this(thanks by the way, great instructions).

That sucks! It's good thing you know what you are doing and can do it yourself. That way you know the work is done right and by someone who cares.

Wow...that sure is a mess. Glad to hear you weren't hurt. Cars can be fixed much easier than people for sure. Look forward to seeing pics when it's all done.

BTW... to ChevyHHR.net...lots of knowledgeable folks here. Sounds like we can add you to that list too.
