Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
So sorry to hear this. Your Jimmy was one of the nicest. I hope you can rebuild it!

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
It will get fixed just going to have to find a grill that I can get re chromed should have the rest of the parts. Frame horns need straighten.

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Aww. That really sucks! As long as your ok the truck can always be fixed.

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
I hate reading posts like this. As long as you're OK, the truck can be fixed.
Sorry about your misfortune. |

Got some better pictures
Have it insured for 30,000 that shouldn't cost more then that to fix it back the way it was. |

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
With it being insured for only $30k you may have to work with them to not total it. Unless you don’t mind having a salvage or rebuilt title. My dads insurance co. Totaled 2 of his 4 cars damaged in hurricane sandy. Now 2 are rebuilt titles and 2 are still clean. I don’t know how much that effects value on a truck but on a corvette the value difference can be a lot.

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Ouch, so glad you are doing well - one of my favorite K5's!

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
I've always wondered about the strength of factory two hooks and judging by the looks of yours they are plenty stout,sorry about the fender bender.
|
Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
So glad you're ok as well. Couldn't happen to a nicer truck. You've got an amazing attitude about it...if it helps I'll be sick for you (already am). I hope you'll start a build thread...can't wait to see her back in form.

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Thanks everyone the truck will be fix time to restore it again. Even if I have to will replace the frame.
|
Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
What an awful experience Gary. Glad you are unhurt and I sincerely hope you can get this beautiful Jimmy back on the road.
|
Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Glad to see your ok and not hurt. Sorry to see the amount of damage on your Jimmy.
On a separate note you said the other driver ran the stop sign? So wouldn’t the cost of repairs be on her or her insurance company not yours? Just one more note be careful with the insurance companies so they don’t try and screw you over or if they total it don’t fully pay for deperciated value with a salvage title or worse try and pay nothing for a 50 year old vehicle. |
Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Sorry to see this. Such a nice Jimmy. Glad you are okay.
|
Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Glad you're ok, very inspiring to see your good attitude about it. Look forward to seeing it fixed!

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Wow. that is hard to see such a great looking truck in that condition. Best thing is your not hurt. The Jimmy is a "thing" that will require time and $$ and a fair amount of determination to bring back but it is do-able. Good luck in the process with the insurance companies involved and the re-build.
If you don't mind sharing, who are you presently insured with ? Did you have an actual appraisal done to determine the $30,000 value? |

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
As long as you are OK, Sure the Jimmy will look like new again.

Re: Wrecked my Jimmy today
Read my thread from several years back about having insurance company contact the state and totaling my blazer. I had no say after damage exceeded 60% of value in Nevada
