yup my baby got hit :/ i was turning left and the guy blew threw a stop sign and slammed in to me...would have hit the cab if i didnt drop it a gear and floor it. my guess is insurance is going to total it...but i will buy her back and do a flat bed with some full widths under her....still a sad day...she was soooo clean.
to make things more interesting....guess what hit me

 

Sorry to hear

Was it an SUV? Or another Ranger?

 

Wow. Sorry to hear. How are you doing?

 

Wirelessly posted (Timberwolf)

Is she wrote off? Chassis damage? Im calling the eldery on this collision. Damn that sucks dude. Insurance should clear this up. Running a stop sign is serious matter. Case closed in favour for you buds.

 

Not cool man. Was it a ricer?

 

ya he got ticketed, it was a 3rd gen fleet ranger.

 

Wow that sucks! I liked that truck! You put a lot of time into it recently.

 

Dude... bummer. All that hard work :( You could always strip your goodies off of it and put it on another ranger/b-series. Sucks either way tho... but at least you're not hurt.

 

sadly i cant take the cage out...i wish i could becasue that was expensive...i plan to buy it back and do a flatbed with some full width axles

 

He already said he would buy it back if it was totaled

EDIT: Too slow

 

Good Luck with whatever you do.

 

I probably woulda jumped out and punched the guy lol

 

Sorry to hear brother, but when life gives you lemons, at least you're going to make lemonade!

Its going to look sick with full widths and a flat bed. Just please do a good flat bed, not some white trash hack job.

 

^^^ agreed. I saw on the Powerblock where they made a custom bed out of metal. It was on a military deuce but im sure it would look bad azz on a Ranger too! Just heavy...

 

i work at a fab shop...heres the flat bed we built for our service truck. i think im going to use tube for mine though. http://www.stainlessbrainfab.com/pho...cation/419.JPG

 

You can kinda get the idea

 

That doesn't look bad at all. You going wood floor or metal? Are you going to dove tail it at all?

 

not sure yet, probably wood even though its not going to be a huge flatbed. i wanna dovetail it but it has to be street legal...i dont have a tow rig,

 

Check out some of the flatbeds in these threads. Some are pretty sweet!

so the guy at my dads work that does the repair estimates on wrecked rental cars did a quick work up of the damage on my truck...he came up with $5500 in damages...its totaled. i wanna buy it back but i have a feeling the insurance company is going to want me to pay out the *** to get it back becasue i have so many hours in it they know i want it....

 

so gut the son of a ***** before it goes.

Although, I have bought a couple cars back from the Insurance Company, and it was 75% of the trade in value of the stock vehicle with no modifications. Maybe your insurance company is different, but i doubt it. That was with State Farm and Progressive

 

id just ask to see how much they want for it. i wish i bought my old truck back i kick myself everyday for not doing it. it needed a cab swap but whatever it could of been done at my friends house

 

rear end damage is always the easiest. Your truck is a 94, so you are looking at around 1000 bucks to buy the truck back.
