the sign didnt really hit me, just a nice way of saying i took it out. a car cut me off, i accidentally hit the gas pedal instead of break, so to avoid the car in front of me, i took a sharp right, lost traction and went up onto the curb. into a big wooden sign. im beating myself up over this stupid mistake. but i have to say, the car handled it pretty well, it felt like i had hit a big pot hole.

not that i know of. but if its somewhere over 2 grand for repairs, itll be sold or parted out. im hoping i can find a w124 being parted out and by the parts i need for it. the oil pan new is 350 or so. hopefully i can get it used for somewhere around $100 or something. i need whatever i can get for as cheap as i can get.

heard from teh mechanic, the cost to fix the car is more than i can afford. i was hoping to sell teh car whole rather than part it out. as i dont really have a place to keep the car for very long.
