The hood is gone


The phone call no one wants to get at midnight on a Friday night.
"Hello?"
"Tony, it's Casey. There's been an accident"
"How bad is it?"
"The hood is gone...its not there anymore"
"Where are you, I'll be right there."
When all they can get out is the hood is gone, it can't be good. And it wasn't.
Sparky has been offically put to rest and delcared a total loss.
Good points:
1. Not Amanda's fault (he ran a red light and never even hit the brakes) 2. He had insurance and everything will be paid for. 3. The trip in the ambulance was a 2 for 1. (Both Casey and Amanda went in the same ambulance) 4. (and most important) Both Casey and Amanda are fine outside of a LOT of bruising, scrapes, and soreness. 5. It had both front air bags deploy, even though they were hit from the side (lucky? they were hit that hard to cause deployment)
Bad points:
1. We are short 1 car.
Not so bad considering the fact that the radiator is now sitting in the tansmission, the hood and bumper are on top of the car, and the interrior dash is much close to the seats.
