She's gone. Totaled and completely fucked.

Bought the car the day I turned 16 from an old lady. I was the second owner. She was bone stock. I poured my heart and soul into the car, hundreds of hours of labor, every modification done and paid by me.

Come this last summer/fall... it was time to get rid of her. I put her up for sale, everything went smooth, and I had a kid from Topeka come up and buy her on Wednesday.

I showed him and told him everything about her. It was a murky, shitty day in the 20's with light snowfall. He still insisted on coming up, buying the car and driving back down to Kansas on a 3 1/2 hour drive in the snow with it.

I get a call 2 hours after he buys the car and heads out of town. He tried to pass a semi on a 2 lane highway, 55 mph speed limit... IN THE SNOW doing like 85. Caught a wind gust from semi, went sideways, down a 30 foot incline, and totaled the car.

Completely smashed front end, passenger side is hardcore fucked, and its totaled.

Oh well. I have a fat stack of hundreds.

How much did you sell it for? Shoulda kept it homie. Red and black Eg's are a permanent disease, once you have one you never forget it and can't ever get rid of it.

I'll come back to a 92-95 sometime down the road when I can do it right. I'm young, need to focus on school and buying camera ****. It was time for the car to go.

Damn man, what a shitty deal for the kid, his own dumb *** fault though. What'd it sell for? Cool for you, got the cash from it I guess, lol.

Oh yeah...
